We have regular events both in English and Spanish for our members located in Mexico and across Latin America. We’ve begun events around the world in other languages, too, although most of our activities, especially the virtual globinars, are in English.

Adapting Research & Development to the New World
Research & Development approaches as we’ve known them can no longer provide the needed results in today’s dynamic, “VUCA” (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) global business ecosystem. Improving R&D approaches is an absolute necessity. Leaders must become more aware of faster changes, and subsequently to be nimble and stay one step ahead, using technologies that … [More]
Global Chamber at Thunderbird
Global Chamber® has moved our global headquarters into the new headquarters of Thunderbird School of Global Management in Phoenix, Arizona, USA. Over the past few months, we have held in-person and virtual events that continue our global business activities, and have introduced our global tribe to Thunderbird through CEO/Dean Sanjeev Khagram, who spoke to our members about the … [More]
Just Say NO to Networking
We don’t require members of Global Chamber to “network” in order to find new clients and resources. That can feel like a needle in a haystack adventure and isn’t productive unless it is designed properly. Networking can be useful for younger leaders as they build their networks, but should it be necessary for more experienced leaders? Not always. The alternative? … [More]

So this year we held a first conversation at Global Chamber® about Juneteenth — a remembrance, a celebration and a … [More]
Warmth, Resilience and Growth
Most of us wish to grow our business, but the world can be a cold, uncooperative place. So, at Global Chamber®, we provide warm introductions every day for members to gain new clients, assisting them in their growth across metro regions and borders. Warmth means we know who we’re introducing, and it’s a thoughtful connection. That all helps ensure that more than 90% of the time … [More]
Doing Business in…
Global Chamber® has members everywhere around the world, and that gives us a unique ability to help companies reach every corner of the world. Few businesses, like Coca-Cola and Apple, wish to literally be everywhere, but nonetheless we help in every metro and town because you never know where members will need help. To assist doing business everywhere, in the past few months … [More]
Book Authors in the Global Tribe
We recently concluded the 2nd series of globinars featuring book authors at Global Chamber®. These members have been providing tips and techniques for writing your next book! Whether your next book is number one or 25 (for member Lon Safko), each author can do better and be more effective the next time time with help from the global tribe. By ourselves we can move forward … [More]
Global Chamber Event Planning 2022
As of this writing, COVID is still with us, and, after nearly two years, illnesses are going strong. Global Chamber® found the switch to virtual events fairly seamless, holding more than 500 events last year. Since most of our members wish to grow business in more than one metro region, and often in other countries as well, virtual meetups and globinars are an effective way of … [More]
