Leading Change Summit 2026

​Attendance to Leading Change Summit is by application only.

​Apply by April 24th to join 150 of Canada’s top young leaders for a full day of learning, co-creation, and action toward a more resilient future! Decisions will be communicated to all applicants by April 30th.

​Since 2003, Leading Change has brought young leaders together through our annual signature event, Leading Change Summit, a space for collaboration, inspiration, and collective action. 

​This year, we’re shaking things up to bring you an immersive, hands‑on experience that goes far beyond your traditional conference. On June 2 at the Toronto Botanical Gardens, we’ll convene up to 150 motivated young professionals for an energizing, full‑day of hands‑on workshops, co‑creation sessions, networking, immersive nature experiences, and more. Expect future‑focused discussions, honest conversations about what it means to lead through uncertainty, and opportunities to directly shape solutions alongside peers, innovators, and sector leaders. 

​Anchored in the theme of resiliency, this Summit will challenge and empower you to strengthen your own resilience as a leader while contributing to the systems‑level resilience Canada needs for a sustainable, thriving future. 

​Full agenda to come.
