Connecting Leaders for Greater Impact
When you support Summit, you’re helping local leaders come together to network, brainstorm, and learn—a combination of benefits that leads to stronger organizations, which can then expand their positive impact throughout our region.
While our 40,000-square-foot building already serves as a relational hub for about 200 business, nonprofit, and church leaders, there are so many more who can benefit from our space and our services.
Our Core Services
The Need
In March 2022, we bought the existing building at 3515 Bristol Highway with the help of the incredible generosity of the building owners who sold us the property well below the appraised value. While this spacious facility allows us to continue a leadership movement across the Appalachian Highlands, it also means that our potential to serve leaders has more than doubled!
But for us to bring that potential into reality, we need to redesign our existing space. We envision a unique collection of meeting rooms, creative areas, and conference rooms, allowing more leaders to collaborate for greater regional and Kingdom impact.
The Vision
- A main conference room for up to 200 people
- 4 large meeting rooms for up to 60 people
- 6 “board meeting” rooms for up to 20 people
- 3 small meeting rooms for up to 4 people
- 8 “flex space” rooms with multiple coworking or individual meeting configurations
- 10 offices for staff and resident partners
- Several creative spaces with access to coffee and snacks
- Multiple outdoor gathering spaces
- A fully equipped catering kitchen
- Multiple storage areas
- Recording studio with podcast capabilities
This improved design will provide leaders the ideal setting to meet with their peers, to learn from each other and from Summit, and expand their reach while significantly lessening their overhead costs!
“When it comes to growing to become better at what we do, that’s the one thing that I’d point to if I pointed to Summit. They always put us in access to people who are doing it better and who teach how to do it better, so we absolutely love that setting.”
Randy Hensley
“Jeremiah School is now in its fifth year of operation with a growing student population, and a campus of our own. None of this would have been possible without the support, guidance, coaching, and leadership given by Summit. We would not be the successful, thriving school that we are without them.”
Jo Cullen
“Every day and in innumerable and often invisible ways, Summit Leadership provides critical support to people and organizations striving to do good in this community and around the world. Supporting Summit allows me to have an impact far beyond my limited reach.”
