Larry Conley
Hagai Maidenberg | August 8, 2016Larry Conley is the president and lead instructor of Leadership Development Concepts, LLC. He travels the country to present his popular and compelling program, GLUE (Growing Leaders Using Empowerment). The concept of GLUE was born in the fire service, where Larry successfully juggles many leadership roles. However, the principles of GLUE transcend all industries, making Larry a favorite presenter at both corporate and youth leadership conferences. The GLUE personal leadership paradigm is also the training foundation for returning counselors at the Midwest Children’s Burn Camp, where Larry now serves as Director.
Larry’s storied history with camp began in 2002 in a familiar way: “I just wanted to do it for one year, for the experience.” Since that time, Larry has served as counselor, group leader, quartermaster, CIT leader, assistant camp director and now 6 years as Camp Director. He believes camp is an experience all youth should experience at least once. “Getting away from some of the modern conveniences to connect with nature and other youth helps shape character in a own unique way,” says Larry. “The counselors’ healthy leadership example is one of the best way to impact campers.” Larry is invested in the concept of “more is caught than taught,” a kind of inside-out leadership model that emphasizes interpersonal interactions over didactic instruction.
Outside of the camp world, Larry’s initiative and creativity are put to work in his roles as: Captain of the St. Louis Fire Department (Truck 13C); President of the Parkway Gardens Neighborhood Improvement Association; Chief Instructor for the Highlander Fire Academy St. Louis Community College at Forest Park; Director at Large for the ISFSI (International Association of Fire Service Instructors); President of the Supervisory Committee and Board Member St. Louis Firefighters Credit Union; and Co-Chair of the Fire Education Subcommittee Missouri Community College Association.
Larry and his brother David Conley are authors of numerous articles on personal leadership.

Hagai Maidenberg | August 8, 2016 拉里•康利是领导观念公司的总裁和首席指导。他巡游全国宣传推广他广受欢迎和引人注目的项目。GLUE（通过授权提升领导力）。GLUE这个理念诞生于消防部门，在那里拉里成功地应对了几个领导角色。然而，通过授权提升领导力的原则适应于各个领域，让拉里成为组织机构和青少年领导会议最受欢迎的演讲人。GLUE的个人领导力范例也是对在中西部儿童烧伤露营老顾问们进行培训的基础，在那里拉里是一个主管。
拉里和露营的故事开始于2002年，像大部分人一样，拉里的想法是“我只是想参加一次作为体验”，从那时起，拉里是一个顾问，小组领导和物资主管，信息中心主管和助理露营主管，现在他已经作为露营主管六年了。“远离一些现代的便利，和自然还有青年人接触帮助我们以一种独特的方式塑造了性格，”拉里说“顾问们良好的领导力范例是影响营员们最好的方式。”拉里相信“领悟到比被教导更加重要”，这是一种强调在教学指导中的人际互动的由内向外的领导模式。
在露营以外的世界，拉里的主动性和创造性让他参与了这些角色：圣路易斯消防部的队长(13分队)；帕克韦花园社区提升协会主席；福利斯特帕克高地人消防学院圣路易斯社区大学首席教官；国际消防教官协会的理事；圣路易斯消防员荣誉联盟的董事会成员和监督委员会的主席；密苏里社区大学联盟消防教育小组委员会的联合主席。
拉里和他的弟弟大卫•康利是关于个人领导力的许多文章的作者。
