MEET WAYNE
EVERYONE HAS A GIFT
You Have the Power
Every person can live a richly textured life and lift themselves up from any circumstance. Wayne Elsey has done it—and so can others in any community by tapping into their inner strength. From his humble beginnings as an awkward teenager to finding his path in the footwear industry, creating a global nonprofit, and social enterprises, Wayne has seen the vision—even when others haven’t. Everyone has the power within themselves to do the same.
A Strategic Shift: Promoting Self-Leadership and Empowerment
Wayne has set on a new path after decades of creating visionary leadership, growing his social enterprises to support the planet, and providing work opportunities in the U.S. and 24 countries worldwide for thousands of people. He realized there are too many telling others what to do and insufficient people promoting self-leadership and empowerment. Everyone has a gift.
Guided by Vision:
Wayne’s Journey to Empower Others
At this stage in his career, he’s strategically shifting to remind others of their potential. Like Margaret Mead said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” Wayne’s guiding principle has been that vision, driving him to empower others.
Living the Mission:
Global Impact
on Self-Belief
Wayne’s true mission is more considerable than business success. It’s about reminding and reorienting people worldwide to find the answers within themselves. Moreover, he lives it every day through his brands, global team, and partners across continents and countries. People can redefine their lives and work, just as Wayne helped people see in his daily work.
