2013 C12 Leaders Conference Keynote - Alan Barnhart
Case Study: Barnhart Crane - Building a GREAT Business for a GREATER Purpose, presented by Alan Barnhart, President & CEO, Barnhart Crane & Rigging. True servant leadership produces enduring results in the lives, businesses, and stakeholders of those who practice it. The compelling story of Barnhart Crane & Rigging's rise to industry leadership over three decades while fueling vibrant Christ-centered ministry is a window into what can happen when senior company leaders serve Christ first. Alan will share his own initial Biblical convictions about the potential dangers of wealth, key decisions made along the way to produce a distinctive Christ-honoring growth company, and practical ways they have tried to minimize any distractions related to growing company value and prominence. Barnhart's unique, God-honoring story includes how they deliver marketplace ministry through The GROVE Group (God's Resource Operating Very Effectively), the giving arm of the company. In many ways, Barnhart Crane is an example of what can happen when we keep first things first, through humble but firm leadership, and invite others to join us in this worthy journey!
