Equipping Leaders in Canada

For more than 25 years, GLN Canada has been driven by the belief that leadership changes everything. When you commit to grow your leadership, everyone around you wins. Churches thrive, businesses work for good, and communities are transformed.

GLN Canada has been serving and equipping leaders from ministry, business, academia, and not-for-profits for 25+ years. We’re the largest convener of leaders across Canada, with over 60,000 participants in our programs over the past ten years across all sectors of society and from all Christian denominations. We maintain collaborative relationships with well-respected Canadian National Ministries including Alpha, Focus on the Family, Power to Change, the Global Aid Network, and more.

Our online and live events, including our signature Global Leadership Summit (GLS) event, exist to equip and inspire you with a faculty of world-class leaders including Jim Collins, Andy Stanley, General Colin Powell, and Bono. With premier host site locations in 25+ Canadian cities, the GLS connects you with leaders across Canada and with a global community of over 250,000+ attendees worldwide in 120+ countries and 50+ languages.

We’re not just about the GLS! Every year, GLN Canada hosts One Conference, a 2-day gathering of church leaders from across the country. At One Conference, Canadian church leaders experience a spiritual refreshing, gain renewed focus, and are effectively equipped to lead the church.

Additionally, we are proud to partner with organizers and supporters each year to facilitate the Sommet Mondial du Leadership in Sherbrooke, QC where hundreds of French-speaking participants gather to grow their leadership skills and network with other growth-oriented leaders. We also invest in the next generation of leaders through GLN Next-Gen, providing tailored experiences to help build character, purpose, and leadership skills in young leaders across Canada.
