    Speaker Greg Coker Keynote Topics

    Building Cathedrals: The Power of Purpose

    • This keynote is based on a famous 300 year-old story about bricklayers. The story illustrates how people with purpose are more successful and productive in their life and work.
    • Greg Coker found the origin of the story and discovered that the one of the world’s most famous architects in history, Christopher Wren, was hired to rebuild the St Paul’s Cathedral after the great fire of 1666. This is where Christopher asked the three bricklayers what they were doing, to which they answered three different things. One was simply working, the next was building a wall, but the third bricklayer was building a cathedral for The Almighty. The third bricklayer not only had purpose and determination in his work but he was standing tall and working hard and fast.
    • In his keynote and book, Greg uses the fire and Cathedral as metaphors for setbacks and purpose. Christopher Wren was a great inspirational leader, who made his workers see the bigger picture and find their purpose. That is how to lead effectively. Are you the Christopher Wren of your organization? Do you want to be?
    • This entertaining keynote will inspire you to inspire. Find your purpose and transform your team from a “team of bricklayers” to “a team of Cathedral builders”.
