Our Core Beliefs

We believe leaders who have courage, humility, integrity, and care for others are the best leaders—those more likely to make good ethical as well as practical choices. History shows these values transcend cultures, ages, and spheres of life, and improve quality of life for the world's citizens.

Our History

Taking a one-year leave from his Procter & Gamble career, Todd Geist and his family moved to Eastern Europe in 2009 to do volunteer work. While there, Todd was invited to create a leadership seminar for university students. After two successful seminars, Todd realized the transformative power of purpose-infused, values-based leadership.

Once back at P&G headquarters in Cincinnati, Todd used vacation time to return to Eastern Europe twice each year to present leadership training in partnership with local organizations. As requests for this training increased, two P&G retirees—Steve Simpson (2014) and Scott Liston (2016)—joined him.

In late 2016, Todd retired from P&G to devote more time to training aspiring leaders. In 2017, he, Steve, and Scott founded Global Leadership Partners to oversee the growing demand. Since then, countless reports of inspired leaders and transformed lives have kept the GLP team energized to continue this work.
