Introducing the Commonwealth

For 25 years, Shake the Nations has been a premier gathering for leaders driven by purpose, passion, and impact. We've explored timeless principles that shape how we lead—spiritually, socially, and economically—through the voices of world-class thinkers and doers.

But 2025 marks a turning point.

This year, we’re not just hosting another conference. We’re launching a movement
The Commonwealth: a bold new space where leaders align around a shared vision of influence, stewardship, and long-term transformation.

Over three days, hundreds of leaders from around the world will come together to:

  • Rethink leadership through a values-based, purpose-driven lens

  • Tackle today’s toughest challenges with wisdom and clarity

  • Design systems that create lasting, generational change

"This is the G20 Summit for the Underdogs"
