Who is involved?
The St. George Leadership Association is a professional confraternity of serious Catholic men and women — including Eastern and Western Catholics — on both sides of the Atlantic. We stand together, support one another, and learn from one another to grow in faith and in our commitment to virtue and excellence in every dimension of life — professional as well as personal. We share insights, ideas, and inspirations that often lead to collaborations and new opportunities, strengthening each other in our common mission to lead with integrity and purpose in the modern world.

Catholic professionals like You.
As a Catholic called to lead, you’re not on the sidelines—you’re already in the arena. The St. George Leadership Association is a fraternity of Catholic professionals who take the mission seriously—who lead in the world without losing their soul.
Other Catholic professionals are stepping forward, locking arms, and building something that lasts. You’ve been formed. Now it’s time to act. Join us—and together, we will carry the Church’s mission into every corner of the society. We stand in our workplaces, in education, and in public service—not as spectators, but as witnesses to Christ, and Christian leaders not only in name, but in deed.
