Elective Workshops

Cre8 Conference 2009 at ArrowThe Cre8 Conference and Elective Workshops are designed to empower Christians in the marketplace to be highly competent leaders of character and excellence  in their domain.

In partnership with local Churches Cre8 provides focused teaching and resources on the hallmarks of business success. You will also connect with highly regarded and motivated leaders committed to serving Christ well in the marketplace.

The 2009 Cre8 Conference was very well received by over 330 attendees from a wide variety of church and business backgrounds, with many people coming to the realisation that are called to represent the Church reaching out to impact the marketplace.

“Cre8 was a life changing experience for me and my sense of calling in the market place. Session topics were spot on leaving me with a great sense of direction in my market place calling. I loved this conference and the connections I made with like-minded people.” - Jonathon Brake

Church Leaders also found that through Cre8 they were able to more effectively connect with their business people. One pastor commented…

"I realised I had the opportunity to come to Cre8 and gain what I could from the conference, or take 10 of my most busy business people who can never find time together and spend 48 hours with them and minister to them at the same time" - Allan Demond

Peter Irvine and Tony Gattari will be presenting an introductory session to all delegates, followed by a selection of workshops presented by prominent Christian Business Leaders:
