In today's rapidly evolving world, the need for leaders to be prepared for future challenges has never been more crucial. T.D. Jakes' International Leadership Summit, proudly presented by Wells Fargo, offers a unique opportunity for leaders at the intersection of faith and business. The summit aims to equip these individuals with critical strategies for navigating life's complexities. This year, it will be held at the renowned Orange County Convention Center, welcoming global innovators and entrepreneurs from various industries.
Among the distinguished speakers at this year's summit is Mellody Hobson, co-CEO and president of Ariel Advisors. Over her long career, she has been recognized by Time Magazine as one of the most influential figures worldwide. Hobson brings insights from her extensive experience, having transitioned successfully from president to co-CEO of Ariel Advisors while championing initiatives to elevate women in sports and minority-owned businesses.
This year's International Leadership Summit centers on the theme "Changing of the Guard," focusing on empowering a new generation of leaders. Attendees will gain insights from both seasoned veterans and emerging voices, ensuring a blend of wisdom across generations. Although this marks the final gathering under this summit's banner, a new platform will take its place, promising to continue fostering high-level discussions and summits designed to provoke thought and inspire action.
Alongside Hobson, the summit features an impressive lineup of speakers, each contributing their unique experiences and expertise. Dr. Myron Rolle, a distinguished pediatric neurosurgeon and Rhodes Scholar, will share his journey from NFL player to medical professional, along with his commitment to public health initiatives focused on safety and prevention of traumatic injuries.
Also speaking is James Meeks, founding pastor of Salem Baptist Church of Chicago and CEO of Hope Center Foundation. Under his leadership, the church has grown to one of the largest congregations in the U.S. Meeks has also focused on community development through the Hope Center, which aims to support individuals transitioning from poverty to financial stability.
The summit will draw attention to pressing issues such as technology's role in business, the necessity of women's leadership, and intergenerational knowledge transfer. It serves as a crucial gathering for business and spiritual leaders, centralizing discussions that address complex societal challenges and promote ethical leadership and growth.
Launched in 2011, the International Leadership Summit has cultivated impactful leaders who are championing values-based business practices and professional development. Participants from various fields will converge to learn, engage, and collaborate, ultimately working to elevate their communities.
The International Leadership Summit represents the first of three major conferences hosted by the T.D. Jakes Group in 2025, all aimed at empowering leaders. Following this summit, the second event, Good Soil, will be held to engage business owners in support of their growth and development.
