Dear Colleagues,
Time is ticking for our discounted earlybird rate to attend the 2020 Student Global Leadership Conference!
Encourage your undergraduate or graduate students to gain international conference experience and connect with other students from the US, UK, and around the world at the 2020 SGLC. Students will build a personal leadership action plan, participate in interactive breakout sessions, and hear from inspiring keynote speakers! The weekend will focus on the conference theme, "Leadership for Change in an Uncertain World"
SGLC prepares students for their working life by giving them the tools to walk into a work place with the tangible knowledge on how to engage, deliver and report on a conference, while exploring how to become better leaders and how to think about leadership in a new way, while making a difference. In fact, SGLC is not just a weekend – it’s a beginning.

The theme of the conference is “Leadership for Change in an Uncertain World”: The polarization of political ideologies and wealth distribution, mass bio-extinction, refugee crisis, hardening of borders, social media and the erosion of personal privacy, greater isolation, and an increase in mental ill-health are some examples of the plethora of current challenges that are bringing about change in an uncertain present and future. In a time of instability, it is impossible to predict what the future holds. Indeterminate times demand strong leadership that can shore up an uncharted future. Throughout history, great leaders have brought about positive and enduring change in periods of doubt. But how can today’s leaders steer us on a path towards positive change when we don’t know what new surprises tomorrow will bring? FIE’s fifth Student Global Leadership Conference will challenge and empower leaders to scope the challenge ahead, to guide in turbulent times, to channel frustration into action, to ensure greater social cohesion and to seek a better, fairer future for the benefit of us all.
