SUMMARY:Meet the Author & Book Presentation: Reiner Lomb "Aspire"
DESCRIPTION:Meet the author Reiner Lomb\, transformational change leader and executive coach: \n\n\n\nIn his new book\, Reiner Lomb writes\, “Many of my own experiences have inspired the creation of ASPIRE. Yet one stands out above all others as an illustration of the power of emotions in leading change…It’s November 9\, 1989\, and I am on vacation in Cuba. It is already late and I’m trying to sleep\, but the sound of cheering outside my hotel room keeps me awake. I get up and open the door to ask the noisemakers to be quiet\, but before I’m able to speak\, a man shouts at me\, “Die Mauer ist gefallen!” (“The Wall came down!”) I shake my head\, thinking\, “How drunk must he be that he believes the Wall has come down?” I go back to bed\, not believing what I have heard.” \n\n\n\nHow a small group of committed leaders peacefully brought down the Berlin Wall by mobilizing millions of people is one of many of the stories Reiner Lomb shares in Aspire to show the power of emotions in creating positive change. \n\n\n\nIncluded is the story of Anke Jahn\, who grew up behind the Iron Curtain in East Germany. At the age of 18\, just three months before the Berlin Wall came down\, she and her best friend escaped. Join us for an exciting evening with Reiner Lomb and Anke Jahn and learn the seven essential emotions for leading positive change\, no matter where you are. \n\n\n\nThe program is in English.The discussion is lead by our executive director Oliver Gorf and occasionally highlight German vocabulary for additional\, deep insights. \n\n\n\nDoors open at 6:30PM – come mingle.The official program begins at 7:00PM. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Author John Keene to Read at Agnes Scott’s 55th Writers’ Festival
DESCRIPTION:One of Georgia’s longest-running literary traditions returns this spring as Agnes Scott College presents the 55th Writers’ Festival\, April 9–10 in Decatur. \n\n\n\nAcclaimed author John Keene will give a public reading followed by a reception. Visiting writers also include Aisha Sabatini Sloan and Agnes Scott alumna Charleen McClure ’10. \n\n\n\nAlan Grostephan\, an Agnes Scott College faculty member and current Georgia Author of the Year in Fiction\, will also participate. \n\n\n\nFounded in 1972 with celebrated poet and novelist May Sarton\, the festival is the longest continuously running literary festival in Georgia and brings together writers\, students\, and readers to explore storytelling and the craft of writing. \n\n\n\nThe festival also includes a statewide student writing contest inviting college and university students across Georgia to submit poetry\, fiction\, creative nonfiction\, and playwriting. Finalists are published in the festival magazine\, and winners are selected by the visiting authors. \n\n\n\nSupport from partners such as the Kirk Fund helps sustain Agnes Scott’s creative and performing arts programming and ensures these cultural experiences remain accessible to the broader community.
