This flashback Friday episode is special, we shine a light on the remarkable story of Dr. Chris Stout, psychologist, global humanitarian, and founder of the Center for Global Initiatives. From his early leadership roles to spearheading life-changing humanitarian projects worldwide, Dr. Stout’s journey is a masterclass in servant leadership. He shares how his approach has always centered around helping others and creating impactful projects from the ground up, all while navigating the complexities of global service work.
