The Conversation With ___ is a new summit event, bringing together a gathering of engaged civic leaders committed to serving the Tulsa and Oklahoma community with the purpose of increasing collaboration and partnership.  Each event is anchored around a discussion between two people that have strong ties to Oklahoma: the guest of honor, whose impact through their life and work is being acknowledged, and the moderator, who brings a contrasting background and perspective to the conversation. Each event raises funds for a key cause, and through partnership with non-profit, government and business, produces a collaborative initiative to support the featured cause in a new way.
