Keynote Title: Understanding the Important Suprises about Men and Women |
Jeff and Shaunti Feldhahn | |
After a dozen years of marriage, Jeff and Shaunti Feldhahn aren’t your typical authors of breakout relationship books. They each earned professional graduate degrees from Harvard University in completely non-relationship-oriented fields (him: law, her: public policy). They each have spent years gaining hard-earned professional experience in their individual careers (him: law and technology, her: public policy, finance, and the news media), and today each bring those skills and analytical experience to the task of investigating and quantifying major revelations that men and women never before understood about each other. Shaunti Feldhahn is currently a bestselling author, speaker, and nationally-syndicated opinion columnist on women’s issues in dozens of newspapers around the country. She holds a Master in Public Policy from Harvard University, and worked on Wall Street and Capitol Hill before becoming a surprise bestselling author. A 1998 runaway #1 bestseller that encouraged the faith community toward a balanced, service-oriented response to Y2K quickly garnered respect for the new author. After writing two spiritual thrillers -- The Lights of Tenth Street and The Veritas Conflict – Shaunti again found herself propelled into the top ten of the religious nonfiction bestseller lists with her groundbreaking For Women Only: What You Need to Know about the Inner Lives of Men. Based on her careful research and surprising findings about men for her main character in Lights, and supported by a groundbreaking scientific survey of men all over the country, For Women Only quickly became not only a bestseller but a staple of astonished water-cooler conversation among hundreds of thousands of women around the country. As well as a catalyst for thousands of changed lives and saved marriages. Jeff Feldhahn is an attorney by training and an entrepreneur by inclination. He received his law degree from Harvard Law School and has worked at law firms in New York and Atlanta specializing in corporate law and nonprofit organizations. |
