Leadership for positive social and organizational change requires unwavering vision, a passion for people and communities, and the resilience to meet and move through inevitable challenges. Join us in lifting the voices and perspectives of women leading transformational change.
Through an intimate career Q&A and a mutually supportive circle for small group conversation and relationship building, this series aims to strengthen the community of women leaders working together to realize a more just and joyful world.

The GCG Collective is heading to NYC this winter to host our first in-person Women Sparking Change event. We created this series to meet the moment across sectors and issue areas because we deeply believe in the power of the collective broadly to enact positive social and environmental change. And this year has been a real demonstration of social impact leaders seeking to come together to problem solve, source resiliency, increase collaboration, widen networks, and champion our collective work in the field.
