GLS 2026 East London

This is for you if you lead a team, teach a classroom, serve in your church, run a business, hold a nonprofit together, or simply want to make more of a difference right where you are. You don't need a title to belong here.
What to expect:
A full day of talks delivered via videocast, built around one idea: you don't need a title to make an impact.
World-class faculty — global thought leaders, CEOs, faith leaders, creatives and culture-shapers, each bringing a different lens and practical strategies.
It's a curated experience designed to keep you engaged from the first session to the last.
Complimentary refreshments and lunch are included, and you're welcome to visit our resource centre for a curated selection of speaker books (based on availability) and related leadership materials.
The top 7 speakers for South Africa will be announced in August 2026. Not every speaker features at every South African event — visit globalleadership.org.za to see the full line-up once it's confirmed.
Why GLS?
GLS reaches leaders across:
100+ countries worldwide
20,000+ attendees in South Africa over 21 years
Whether you've been in your role for decades or you're still finding your feet, you'll leave refreshed, re-ignited, and ready, because what you do from where you are matters.
People come back year after year, not for another idea to add to the pile, but for the space to breathe, renew their vision, and walk away with fresh frameworks and practical tools they can actually use.
