What is CPL Communities?

Continue the journey between gatherings

Meaningful relationships and purposeful leadership develop over time. CPL Communities provides a shared online home where CPL members can continue learning, practicing, contributing, and connecting beyond an individual event or program.

It is not another platform you need to keep up with every day. You are invited to participate at a rhythm that is meaningful and sustainable for you.

The CPL Member Hub

Your starting place inside CPL Communities

  • A welcome and orientation guide

  • Upcoming CPL Connect and Community Hearth gatherings

  • Selected member recordings and resources

  • Community announcements and invitations

  • Opportunities to participate and contribute

  • Help accessing their membership

Only publish items that actually exist and have an identified owner.

Beginning in CPL Communities

Start with one simple step

Once you receive your invitation:

  1. Activate your CPL Communities account.

  2. Add a photo and brief introduction to your profile.

  3. Visit the CPL Member Hub.

  4. Introduce yourself to the community.

  5. Choose one conversation, resource, or gathering to explore.

You do not need to understand or explore everything at once. Begin with what speaks to you and allow your relationship with the community to develop over time.

Community Invitation

Come as you are. Help shape what becomes possible.

CPL Communities is shaped by the people who participate in it. Members are invited to bring their presence, questions, experience, curiosity, and care—and to help create a community where people feel welcomed, respected, and able to grow.

There is no expectation that every member participate in everything. Find the rhythm and forms of participation that are right for you.
