Business leaders of tomorrow will have new expectations of them that demand an enlightened approach to maximizing corporate capabilities for optimal societal impact. One leader at a time, we prepare the next generation of business leaders to integrate social innovation into their leadership agenda, strategies, culture, and operations.

How we do it:

  • Provide educational offerings at the undergraduate, MBA, graduate, and executive level
  • Inspire students and executives regularly through our thought leadership -- on and offline
