Stepping away from the day to day demands of your own company can feel risky when growth and stability are on the line. Yet some of the most successful entrepreneurs insist that leading beyond their business creates new energy and ideas. How can taking on outside leadership roles actually spark innovation and strengthen resilience?

According to Joaquin Cordero, a global entrepreneurial leader, dedicating time to serve in volunteer leadership opens doors to fresh perspectives and powerful relationships.
