Frequently-asked Questions

What is the Transformational Leadership Council?

The Transformational Leadership Council was established in July of 2004 by Jack Canfield.  We are a group of thought leaders, speakers, authors, coaches, trainers, researchers, consultants, and others who are leaders in the fields of personal and professional development.  We meet twice a year to network, connect, and learn from each other in order to enhance our effectiveness and contribution in the world.

What if I’d like to join the Transformational Leadership Council?

The only way to become a member is to be nominated by a member. Members may nominate one new member a year. There is currently no established process by which individuals who do not have a personal connection with an existing member may apply or be nominated.
