Rich Wilkerson Jr. on Becoming a Leader—GLS21 Faculty Spotlight

Our team is excited to welcome Rich Wilkerson Jr. to The Global Leadership Summit stage in 2021!

The energy and passion Rich brings to the stage is dynamic and passionate. Born into four generations of church planters and leaders, he started a young adults ministry called “The Rendezvous.” In 2010, this ministry grew to form both the VOUS Leadership Conference and later in 2015, VOUS Church where he serves as a lead pastor. Through his leadership, VOUS Church has become known as a catalyst of faith, creativity and diversity, celebrating the unique culture of its vibrant city in Miami, Florida. Each Summer, he and his wife and co-founder, DawnCheré continue to host thousands of young adults at the annual VOUS Leadership Conference.

There is much to learn from Rich Wilkerson Jr, especially when it comes to leading the next generation. As you anticipate learning from Rich at The Global Leadership Summit this August, enjoy a preview of his dynamic and magnetic passion in this podcast conversation with the leadership of his church staff at VOUS Church. Focused on the qualities of unity, humility and obedience he unpacks how leaders can make a positive impact on the world.
