Daily Summit Registration Open
Breakfast: "Filipinas in Motion" Peer Idea Circles
Continuing a summit tradition, we begin the Filipina Summit with getting to know your peers at breakfast.  Choose your Peer Idea Circle. 

Each participant shares ONE idea. Then leave with one career or life-changing IDEA learned from your peers that you can use immediately.

Each Circle is a self-managing group, choosing a facilitator, a reporter and a timer.  On Sunday, Oct. 10, after the closing breakfast, each circle reports back to the larger group, its Top Two Ideas.

Idea - a thought or suggestion as to a possible course of action; a feeling that something is probable or possible; a concept of pure reason.
