Schedule




This year we’re going to share the process—what we’ve done over the past 10 months. How does a team bend the AND around the facility, systems, staffing, philosophy and programs they’ve built over the past 25 years? Here’s how:

  • You’re the cruise director-it’s your adventure. You’ll be the boss of your experience, crafting the schedule you want, weighting the topics you need, hearing from the speakers you choose.
  • The schedule promotes healthy circulation for hearts, brains and rears. All sessions will be 60 minutes or less. Even the Keynotes.
  • There is no one-size fits all. Each session will be matched to the format that amplifies the topic and the presenter style best. You’ll know exactly what you’re walking into ahead of time: loaded lecture, practical workshop, leader panel, peer discussion, green room pass or polished keynote. But, regardless of the format, there will always be room for Q&A.
  • Diverse contextualization is guaranteed. Yes, there will be international thought leaders and authors here to stimulate our thought processes. But, the majority of the line-up will be Granger practitioners—from every staff role and vantage point—deconstructing big ideas from the trenches. Every speaker in every session—no matter the style or topic—will speak to recent examples how the AND has changed what they do (and how they do it).
  • It’s a high-learning environment. There will be loads of electives to choose from. And, when we say loads – we mean no less than 70 – covering a wide range of topics.

WE’RE amped up….and ready to roll up our sleeves. We hope you are, too!
