Good morning, good afternoon, good evening!


Despite the geopolitical challenges faced in Q1 2026 and cancellation/postponement of FLS and GLS, I couldn’t be prouder of the Global Support Team and our Directors for how quickly and thoughtfully you adapted. The shift to a series of impactful online calls ensured we could continue supporting our Community and our Members while staying connected during a period of uncertainty. I also want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Bijay, CJ, and all of the Members and Directors in Dubai who invested significant time and effort to host what would have been a truly fantastic event.


With that same spirit of resilience and optimism, I’m excited to share that we will be bringing the CC Community together for the Global Leadership Summit October 22–24, 2026, at the spectacular Fairmont Monte Carlo in Monaco. We will also host an All Directors' Day on October 21. Our team is actively finalizing details, and we will be sharing registration information and additional updates in the coming weeks.


In the meantime, we see bridges being built between Members—and thriving—despite the roadblocks attempting to keep the greater community apart. These connections, paired with extraordinary experiences, are the backbone of our community and what make CorporateConnections® a truly special place. Nurturing connections and creating experiences are what will allow us to succeed in 2026 and beyond.


I share a few of my extraordinary experiences from my recent trip to India in this video message below. Please listen now to my story and then continue reading below for some important objectives for the rest of the year:

Our 2026 Goal: Simply Put, +1

Our overarching goal for 2026 is to grow +1 at all levels. Whether that means you gain net one new Member in your Chapter, launch one new Chapter, or add one new Executive Director Region to your Market, every +1 makes our community stronger and brings new opportunities for everyone. 


To help you reach your goals, our Marketing team is actively developing templates and materials for you. Keep an eye on your email for details and content from Heather Travaglini, Director of Marketing & Communications. She and the rest of the Global Support Team are focused on helping you grow to new heights and be successful.


We look forward to hearing about your outstanding regional events and seeing you in person soon!
