Lenora Billings-Harris: What a joy to be a part of GSF. Each time I visit a country outside of my own, I know I have friends and colleagues there to help make my business and fun time extraordinary.
Peter Davison: I am constantly inspired and supported by the giving spirit of "coopetition" in this magnificent family of professionals who cherish the spoken word and the business of making a difference.
Paul Eric Ter Wal: The Federation made me part of a big family of enthusiastic people/speakers, who became friends. As Paul Harris Fellow, i must say, that this GSF-family is more a true international family then I ever expected possible!!
