One's calling as a business leader goes beyond the questions of survival in a sometimes hostile competitive environment. Economic leadership is a call to excellence, a call to do God's will, a call to transform, and be transformed. WBC participants encourage each other to see, learn, and promote a business culture consistent with Judeo-Christian values as they and their companies grow in excellence. The Process Achieving the threefold goals of the WBC requires continuing, cumulative effort over the course of a lifetime. If, and when, one does not constructively work at it, stagnation and back-sliding results.
Life is a process.
The process has to be deliberate. The process has to have some design to it, concrete steps or stages that are practical means to the end desired. The format followed by the WBC local chapters is such a process, not only for the meetings themselves, but also for use afterwards by individuals in reflecting on their daily work and making practical decisions about it, especially where there are ethical implications. WBC chapter meetings are structured with prayer, a reminder of the mission of the Conference, Scripture reading and reflection, and discussion of the topic of the day based upon previously distributed materials. Minutes are circulated.
