TOPICS IN THIS NEWS UPDATE

Because of the GLS

I believe what you do with your influence can create positive transformation for years to come.

This is true for every area of your life—and the reason why we at the Global Leadership Network are so passionate about equipping you with leadership encouragement and insight to thrive personally and professionally. Ultimately, it’s the positive transformation you’re inspired and equipped to create, even against incredible odds, that drives us forward on this mission around the world.

As I reflect on the outcomes of The Global Leadership Summit, I can’t help but feel honored to be part of such a growth-minded, change driven community, and hopeful for what is in store for the future.

The best part? You too can be  part of this exciting future!

In fact, when you give a donation, you become part of multiplying stories of impact coming out of The Global Leadership Summit around the world—whether from prisons, war-torn regions, schools, homeless shelters, churches, businesses, nonprofits, governments, trafficking survivors, families, transition homes, hospitals, and more—your financial support makes all the difference.  

Here is just a small taste of the positive outcomes from The Global Leadership Summit:

“God called us as a church community to ignite transformation for not just the girls we saw around us, but for girls whose names we would not know. We knew if we did something to end child marriage, it would ignite transformation not just in our generation, but for generations to come.” - Flood Church founder, Sean Kampondni, Malawi

“After the Summit, I developed a mentoring program called Building Block that teaches leadership principles to incarcerated men. It has been life changing for both the residents and prison staff. I am so grateful.” – Renaldo Hudson, formerly incarcerated Summit attendee, current Director of Education, Illinois Prison Project
