Social Progress Conference Announced
Beyond conversations, business leaders to convene, receive training then dispatch to drive global change

SEATTLE, July 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- inviteCHANGE announces the BE. CHOOSE. CAUSE. 2020 Global Leaders Conference (BCC,) held virtually this September 9-11, 2020.

A social progress event, BCC offers cause leaders, civic leaders, activists, coaches and thought leaders the rare opportunity to learn directly from global change agents and professional coaches currently shaping policy, affecting corporate best practices and driving societal change. After attendees are educated and equipped, they can then "raise their hands" to work within one of the causes through participating foundations.

This year's cause focuses are: Climate Emergency, Human Trafficking and Healthy Communities.

The current national climate of social unrest and racial inequities must be addressed in an action-oriented way, and will thus be explored under the Healthy Communities content track.

This year's conference theme is "Lead Well. Do Good. Drive Change."

BCC speakers and attendees span six continents and multiple countries including Australia, Kenya and UK.

"Our experts will lead us toward a new narrative, one that invites us all to remember we can no longer unsee the egregious injustices that a fearful society provokes," said Janet M. Harvey, CEO of inviteCHANGE "We are here to do the rare; rise into useful action and foster a curiosity-rich relationship with each other, our environment and our communities."

Because of her 25 years of experience coaching leaders of Fortune 500 companies and leaders on the front lines of social progress projects, Janet believes that coaches, corporate leaders, HR professionals and activists from a cross-section of industries are the ideal group to drive change due to a diversity of perspectives and proven approaches to problem solving.

Professional coaching is estimated to be a $2 billion global industry and the number of professional coaches (focused on organizations, for-profit and not-for-profit,) is estimated at 125,000 coaches, globally.
