I believe in the core<br />

crowd-sourced ideas<br />

<strong>LEx</strong> GlobalCircles<br />
In the same way that <strong>LEx</strong> LocalCircles are more than just venues <strong>for</strong> professional networking and furthering<br />
members’ personal and enterprise success at the community level, <strong>LEx</strong> GlobalCircles (GCs) and their<br />
sponsored Missions create, nurture and support sectoral initiatives that grow the <strong>LEx</strong> community and advance<br />
leadership consistent with the <strong>LEx</strong> Tenets. <strong>LEx</strong> GCs will function primarily (but not exclusively) online and the<br />
Missions undertaken will fall into one or more of 15 permanent spheres-of-impact (and an infinite number of<br />
sub-circles). They are:<br />

• Arts & Culture<br />
• Business & Social Economy<br />
• Entertainment & Sports<br />
• Government & Public Sector<br />
• Health & Wellness<br />
• Human Development<br />
• Journalism & News Media<br />
• Law & Social Justice<br />
• Leadership Development & Coaching<br />
• Learning & Education<br />
• National Security & Public Safety<br />
• Philanthropy & Social Responsibility<br />
• Science & Technology<br />
• Spirituality & Religion<br />
• Sustainability & Energy Disruption<br />
Self-organized and volunteer run, each <strong>LEx</strong> GlobalCircle will recruit and be nominally led by a recognized<br />
Thought Leader in Residence. As the GCs mature, they will be the drivers of program development in concert<br />
with <strong>LEx</strong> Academe and the <strong>LEx</strong> Museum of Leadership that would include: MOOCs, conferences, symposia,<br />
retreats, or joint programs with academia and business.<br />
Like LC Projects, qualified Missions are intended to be <strong>for</strong> funding support from either or both <strong>LEx</strong><br />
Learning and <strong>LEx</strong> Leadership Accelerator Funds (see discussion on <strong>LEx</strong> Leadership Accelerator Funds).<br />
One GC has <strong>for</strong>med and been the pilot – the GC Sustainability & Energy Disruption. Several others are now in<br />
development. As noted in the LC discussion above, disciplined, diligent (ie. professional) support and coaching<br />
is required to effectively leverage the energy and commitment of the volunteers offering to start and join the<br />
circles. This requires appropriately funded infrastructure to do so. This is a critical success factor.<br />
