Mountaintop works with individuals, mission-driven organizations, and public institutions to build

the capacity of values-driven local leaders to deepen and scale their impact, support a global

ecosystem of people and organizations promoting human infrastructure, and provide a global platform through which local leaders develop research, policies, and education initiatives that strengthen their communities’ capacity to drive their own development.

​

Through its fellowships, Mountaintop supports the world’s most promising leaders with intensive leadership training at institutions like the Harvard Edmond & Lily Safra Center for Ethics, NYU Stern Initiative on Purpose and Flourishing, and USIU-Africa, 1:1 mentorship and professional coaching, and ongoing access to funding, visibility, and a global peer network. The organization currently serves 124 Fellows across 37 countries, along with a community of more than 24,000 people in 181 countries who receive online leadership development support.

Before founding Mountaintop, Reed served as Co-Founder and COO of Lead For America, a place-based, federally funded national service program focused on expanding internet access and strengthening economic development in low-income communities across 46 states. During his tenure, he helped the organization raise over $20 million to create 400+ paid full-time service fellowships in more than 150 communities, benefiting over 517,000 people across the US. Lead For America has been featured in the Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and CBS News, and was recognized by Forbes 30 Under 30.
