Thought Council Summit (Black Hills, SD)

At the Thought Council Summit, we gather not only in a place of stunning natural beauty but in a land rich with meaning — a sacred landscape that holds the stories of those who came before us. Among those legends is the story of Crazy Horse, the fearless Oglala Lakota leader who fought not for glory or power, but to preserve the way of life for his people. His legacy is etched into the granite of the Black Hills, an eternal reminder that true leadership is rooted in conviction, purpose, and a willingness to sacrifice for something greater than oneself.

As we explore the theme of legacy at this summit, Crazy Horse offers a powerful lens through which to reflect on our own impact as leaders. Legacy isn’t just what we build — it’s how we inspire, protect, and pave the way for future generations. The monument rising in Crazy Horse’s honor is not yet complete, and perhaps it never will be, because the work of preserving values, culture, and community is ongoing.

2025 THOUGHT SUMMIT RECAP (Black Hills)

The Thought Council Summit in the Black Hills was an unforgettable experience -- a perfect blend of inspiration, reflection, and connection. Against the backdrop of South Dakota’s breathtaking landscapes, we explored what it means to build a true legacy in life and business. From powerful conversations about legacy and impact to moments of deep personal insight, every session challenged us to think bigger, align with our purpose, and drive meaningful change in our organizations and communities.

A highlight of the summit was our journey through the region’s iconic landmarks, like standing before the grandeur of Mount Rushmore and walking the arm of Crazy Horse, a monument still in progress and a living symbol of vision and perseverance. Those moments reminded us that legacies aren’t built overnight; they’re shaped one bold step at a time. As we left the Black Hills, each of us carried not only new strategies and insights but also a renewed commitment to crafting lasting legacies that transcend generations. See you in Phoenix in 2026!
