This year’s educational programming will feature four session tracks led by nationally-known, industry experts including Dr. Bryan K. Williams, Marcus Luttrell, Sebastian Terry and Clint! Runge.
Dive into their bios below to learn more about what’s to come at this year’s retreat.

Bryan’s keynote speeches and seminars have helped organizations create a memorable service experience for their customers. He is a high-energy, dynamic speaker who educates and inspires professionals to be consistently exceptional.
Balancing remarkable heroism with everyman relatability, Marcus Luttrell shares captivating stories from the battlefield that inspire and motivate audiences to overcome their greatest challenges and persevere against all odds.
A decorated veteran, Luttrell received the Navy Cross, Bronze Star and Purple Heart for his service. His story serves as a beacon of hope and resilience to those who are facing the impossible. Marcus Luttrell continues to be a prominent figure in advocating for veterans and raising awareness of the challenges faced by military personnel.
Shocked by the death of a close friend in his mid-twenties, Sebastian Terry experienced a moment in his life where he asked himself a simple question: ‘Am I happy?’.
The answer was NO, and so, he created a list of 100 things that he hoped would transform his life. Dropping everything to pursue his list, not only has Seb’s life transformed through his incredible journey, but the ripple effect has gone on to help millions of people unlock limitless possibilities in their own lives, too.
With a 25-year history of brand making for clients like Adidas, Red Bull, and Spotify, Clint and team light the fires for cities, hotels, and F&Bs with a fresh, cultural energy—including over twenty-five Marriott Tribute Portfolio and Autograph Collection hotels completed or in progress (including three with Crawford Hoying).
