Why GLC Stays With You

experience matters

The clarity and momentum you gain at GLC carry into every part of your leadership year.

You return with new ideas, a grounded understanding of your responsibilities, and confidence in the direction of your chapter. Leaders describe GLC as the moment their role came into focus because the training and connections made the work ahead more achievable.

I love introducing new members at the chapter level to the magic that happens in GLC. That happened for me pretty early on in my journey with EO, so I was fortunate. I like to tell people, especially our newer members, that this is the crème de la crème of learning, transformation, experiencing all the things, meeting all the people, and it will absolutely blow your mind.

Getting to know people from all over the world and sharing best practices — it is mind-blowing. It is not an opportunity that you get to do on an everyday basis. Although you get some decent exposure within the chapters of your own region, it is always constructive to meet new people and get to know different cultures, different perspectives.
