The Circle of Change Leadership Experience is a 501 c (3) organization that host a three-day national leadership conference in Los Angeles, California in the Fall and New York City in the Spring.

This three-day leadership experience brings more than 325 diverse students to Los Angeles, California in the Fall and 200 plus diverse students to New York in the Spring for a transformational leadership experience that enables these diverse students to discover the leader from within, develop the leadership and professional skills necessary to attain career leadership success after graduation, and the inspiration/confidence needed to make a positive impact in their community, nation, and world!

In order to attain this goal each year with the conference in Los Angeles and New York, not only have we created an incredible team of keynote speakers, leadership coaches, and set of panelists from top tier companies and organizations all across the world, but we have created a variety of life changing leadership experiences built upon five specific learning outcomes which are Interpersonal Development, Leadership Development, Professional Development, Socially Responsible Leadership, and Inclusive Leadership.
