It started in one city with 2,200 leaders from 300 churches in 1995.  In 2012, over 164,000 leaders attended (over 1,000 in San Antonio!) - 74,000 in the U.S. and 90,000 around the world - 88 countries participating!

Effective leaders are the agents of transformation. They call out what's wrong, set goals, launch initiatives, motivate, challenge, and move people to get on the solution side of solving our worst problems. Pastors, teachers, business leaders, law enforcement officials, politicians, musicians, athletes, and others are answering the call and choosing to lead where they are to make a lasting difference.  Leaders are also learners - they must invest in their leadership quotient because their leadership matters.

Far more than an annual training event, The Global Leadership Summit has become a galvanizing event in this worldwide leadership movement. Leaders representing an amazing diversity of race, cultures, ethnicities, languages, and denominations are coming together to give themselves to redeem and restore this broken world.
