We All Want to Be Leaders

Everyone just doesn’t have access to the tools they need to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.

Join the SPEAK movement

Now, more than ever, we need more leaders in our classrooms, in our communities, our companies, in politics and in our world. So what’s missing?

Not enough people taking charge?
Too many change movements, not enough change?
Is this generation suffering from “wisdom fatigue?”
Have our wise lost the ability to connect with the next wave of leaders?

At SPEAK, we’re committed to cultivating leaders

As parents, executives and leaders ourselves, we know first-hand the types of challenges people face these days with staying focused, setting aspirational goals and being independent thinkers in an age of information overload. Our unique program was built to connect with students and adults who are seeking greater understanding on what is needed to succeed in today’s world.
