Enjoy these key quotes from this conversation!
“Keeping each other accountable breeds intimacy—it breeds camaraderie.” @judahsmith
“There’s a beauty to accountability that breeds security.” @judahsmith
Avoiding conflict minimizes the depth of relationship you can experience.
“Avoiding conflict minimizes the depth of relationship you can experience, and of course, the excellence in which you can experience progress and fulfillment and live your dreams.” @judahsmith
“I’m a big proponent of community. I don’t think people can be who they’re supposed to be without community.” @judahsmith
“It’s been said, show me your friends, and I’ll show you your future. It’s real—I can tell you where you’re going right now by the people you’re hanging out with on a consistent basis.” @judahsmith
“I think we’re suffering from a lack of love on a grand scale, on an epic scale. It might be the greatest epidemic in the world. Maybe it always has been. I think horrific things like racism are symptomatic of the fact we don’t feel loved, we don’t feel like we matter, we don’t feel like we’re valued. So, we devalue each other, and we fight. My whole passion is to love people and to express that love.” @judahsmith

About the Author
The Global Leadership Summit
GLN Staff Writer
The Global Leadership Summit (GLS) is a two-day infusion of actionable leadership insights and inspiration broadcast to hundreds of host sites across the United States every August. In the following months, the GLS is translated, contextualized and hosted by local leadership committees at hundreds of locations across Africa, Asia, Latin America, Europe and the Middle East. This global event convenes a world-class faculty who share their distinct perspectives and expertise, inspiring and equipping people around the world with practical leadership skills that can be applied within their context, wherever they have influence, and used to empower positive transformation where it’s needed most. Attracting an audience that represents various industries, including marketplace, non-profit, healthcare, education, government, ministry and corrections, the GLS has become a unique platform, unlike any other, bringing people together to not only empower better leadership within the organizations they represent, but in a growing number of cases around the world, this event also acts as a catalyst for organic local movements initiating systemic, city-wide change. What started as a single event back in 1990’s, the GLS has grown to attract tens of thousands of people today.
