The Summit on Leading Diversity

 
 
   
 

GILD is unlike other leadership development programs. It is a competency-based leadership development experience enrolled in by senior leaders, leadership teams, and emerging leaders. Only GILD combines the depth of an immersion learning workshop, the rigor of a university executive education program, and the pace and scale of a world-class conference to provide accelerated, transformational leadership growth in areas proven to help leaders deliver results. And GILD does not end when participants leave – participants take advantage of the year-long post-program support curriculum following the onsite experience.

The foundation for GILD is Linkage’s High Impact Leadership Model™, a leadership competency model that was co-developed by Linkage and Warren Bennis. The result of an in-depth longitudinal study, the High Impact Leadership Model™ identifies the key competencies, skills, and responsibility areas proven to differentiate superior leaders from average leaders.

 

GILD provides a more qualified and more comprehensive faculty than any other leadership development program. Every year, Linkage carefully recruits a diverse, world-class faculty that provides the expertise and coaching necessary to drive growth and development in all of the core areas of the High Impact Leadership Model™. This year’s faculty is a formal mix of the world’s greatest leaders—current and past CEOs, politicians, and humanitarians—world-renowned teachers— academics/gurus, musicians, and practitioners—and expert coaches and team facilitators. Faculty in 2008 included Tom Peters, George Mitchell, Renée Mauborgne, Nicholas Negroponte, Marshall Goldsmith, Yongtu Long, Patrick Lencioni, Saj-nicole A. Joni, and Michael Abrashoff.
