About the GSCA

The Global Society of Change Agents (the GSCA) was founded to raise the status of change agents: organization development consultants, leadership and executive coaches, corporate trainers and facilitators … all the people who teach us how to realize our potential, individually and collectively.

Change agents make businesses more humane, nonprofits more effective, government more nimble, leaders more inspiring, and all of us more fulfilled. They’re the people who have the heart, the values, and the capabilities to take humanity to new heights.

And most of them work far too hard, for too little income and influence.

That’s why the GSCA focuses all of its effort on one simple goal: to give change agents step-by-step professional and business development training and mentoring, so they can step into the full power, influence, and prosperity they deserve.

Three critical secrets to success the GSCA co-founders discovered can now help you, too …

Your personal prosperity is essential if you’re to be fully “in the game” — a powerful influence, a model of what is possible. (Yes, we mean financial prosperity. Money is the foundation for you playing a bigger game.)
People long to make a difference with their lives. They want to contribute to the good of the whole. The main job of change agents (and leaders in general) is to release that built-in energy.
Work from strengths if you want to achieve more than ever before. (All GSCA programs are built on the best modern, strength-based methods.)

The GSCA was founded by Pam McAllister and Jim Lord. Together, they are making a difference in the lives of change agents worldwide. Why not let them show you how to create a truly prosperous and influential business — and make even more of a difference with your life?

I came back home from the workshop with a renewed energy and confidence. With that I was able to initiate a network of people who believe in democratic values, have commitment to generate a new future and also positively influence political leaders to take bold actions. I have been engaged in this journey for last 15 years and I am fully convinced and confident that the learning I received at the workshop is what we need for a greater social transformation. These days, I have been continuously traveling to many parts of Nepal to meet with political leaders and to organize workshops for bringing transformation at personal, professional, team and organizational levels.Sahadev MahatCommunity Leader and Facilitator, Kathmandu, Nepal

I remember that Jim told me how impressed he was that I was investing in myself, to come to his workshop. I had never thought of it in quite that way before. (And yet I know from experience how important it is for my clients to invest in themselves with me — at levels significant enough so that both they and I value my work.) At that workshop, I wrote a vision for the future that seemed so audacious that I promptly put it away. For several years, I rarely looked at it. Until recently, when I realized that it is indeed coming to pass.Rosemary CairnsGlobal Consultant and Facilitator

The workshop came at an inflection point in my life. I needed to decide whether I was going to become a “leader” or a “foundation administrator” for our community. Developing a deep understanding of Appreciative Inquiry helped me become more comfortable with the idea that leaders don’t have to have all the answers (which I didn’t) but can be the people who ask the right questions (which I learned to do). In the intervening years, we’ve grown the foundation tremendously, both in size and in service to the community.Kevin MurphyPresidentBerks County Community Foundation; Chairman of the Board, Council on Foundations

When I first attended Jim’s workshop it was a few months into my nascent consulting practice of working with community organizations. That experience with Jim showed me how to bring my best to my work, and how to translate that to organizations and communities. My fees doubled after the 2005 workshop, and had a significant increase after our next time together. Each fee increase was preceded by increased confidence in what I can bring. The last 3-4 years have been the best ever. That is, until this year when my 6-month income already surpassed last year’s.Eric KaponoOwnerAdvancement Services for Native Nonprofits, Hilo, Hawaii

I signed up for a VIP Day with Jim knowing that it would be a delightful experience. What I didn’t expect was a new appreciation for what I bring to the world. That translated into a fee increment from my very next engagement that returned my VIP Day investment. Sweet. I’ve been in business for almost 25 years and find it humbling to discover something I have been missing — appreciating my own value — which leads to clients appreciating my value even more, creating a virtuous circle of improvement.Madelyn BlairAuthor, speaker, and consultant to managementPelerei, Inc.
