FRISCO, TEXAS, July 30, 2014, Dr. Philip C. Johnson, President, Founder of Global Next Research Group and Leadership Institute has been recognized by Worldwide Who’s Who for showing dedication and excellence in leadership training, journalism and geopolitics.

Dr. Johnson has more than 20 years of professional experience, with six years as the president and founder of the Global Next Research Group and Leadership Institute. Over the years, he has set himself apart as an expert in all forms of writing and communication, as well as geopolitical trends and public speaking. On a daily basis, he is responsible for providing leadership development for students, educators and business professionals, and writing and developing leadership curriculum. He is also responsible for interviewing key figures related to global leadership and geopolitical shifts.

Dr. Johnson founded Global Next Research Group and Leadership Institute in 2008. Since that time, he has trained more than 1500 students through accelerated study programs throughout Europe and the Middle East. In addition to running leadership conferences for students, he also has had the opportunity to speak and lecture to thousands of students, educators and young business people throughout the U.S., Egypt, Pakistan, Libya and Afghanistan. As a full member of the International Federation of Journalists, he has also chased stories around the world, helping to connect people to geopolitical issues. He has conducted research/interviews in Libya, Yemen, Syria, Israel, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Russia, Ukraine,  Egypt, China and India. He is the author of two books, “The Leadership Paradox” and “Jump Your Shadow,” as well as numerous articles based on his international interviews.

Looking back, Dr. Johnson attributes his success to his faith in God, vision, hard work and choosing to chase opportunities rather than wait for opportunities to arrive. He became involved in his profession through a natural progression of opportunities. It grew from work he did in education. He worked for a state organization in Florida, and developed programs for students and teachers. Eventually those programs led to international leadership programs. Those programs led to international work in dozens of countries.

Dr. Johnson received a Ph.D. in international relations from Andrew Jackson University, Birmingham and a master's degree in education. He maintains affiliation with the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ), the National Writers Union (NWU), and the American Association of Christian Schools International, as well as the International Leadership Association (ILA).

In years to come, Dr. Johnson will be publishing at least two more books, writing new leadership curriculum, and increasing the number of students who travel on international programs. He will also seek to bring more leadership training programs to countries that face conflict or poverty.
