The higher you build, the fewer people you can talk to. Your team needs you to have the answers. Your family needs you present. Very few people understand both.
That is why I built the CEO Experience. You get every session in the main room, from the front row. Then it starts earlier, Wednesday afternoon before the doors open to anyone else, and goes later, around the table with the speakers and on into Friday night. You will be in the conversations that never happen on stage.
You were called to build. This is the room where you build with people who are further down the road.

“Since joining GSD six months ago, I’ve achieved several major milestones, including my first $100K revenue month. I’ve also acquired two more businesses, and even more importantly, my relationship with my wife of nine years is stronger than ever.”
Ricky Cornett
Nett Logistics | GSD Circle Member
“Joining GSD Corner at the CREATE Conference was one of the best decisions I’ve made for my business.
In just one year, my team has more than doubled, growing from 10 to 21 employees. We’ve expanded from 2 to 5 franchise locations, and our gross monthly revenue has jumped from $250K to over $376K.
Most importantly, our annual revenue skyrocketed from $1.9 million to $3.75 million in just one year.
The impact of GSD has been game-changing, and I’m excited for another year of growth!”

Optimize U | GSD Corner Member
After seeing Ken Joslin speak at a coaching event, I decided to invest in attending the 2024 CREATE conference as a Professional Development opportunity to grow as an entrepreneur. That decision was a growth trigger for me in the areas of Faith, Health, Relationships, Business, and Finances.
I joined GSD in the Spring of 2024 just before the passing of my father, one of the most difficult times in my life. The encouragement and support I received from Ken and the other GSD members helped me keep an Incremental not Monumental focus on progressing in my business and deepening my focus on my health and faith.
GSD is faith in motion! Proximity to other entrepreneurs who put God first will encourage you to build impactful businesses that reflect your God-given gifts. Let’s transform the world!
