​In partnership with GlobalWA,
​NEW COHORTS are forming now for FALL 2020!!​
 
Mid-career, Emerging Leaders, GLF XV
starts September 17-18, 2020


Senior-level Executive Leader Cohort, GLF XVI
starts November 5-6, 2020

In light of the global pandemic and the attendant constraints on leadership budgets, in-person meetings, and video-conferencing fatigue, we are offering an adapted program for cohorts l. You can count on the high level of quality that past participants have experienced insofar as context and pedagogy allow.

We are offering Fall 2020 cohorts for a reduced cost of $2,500 to allow more participation for the duration of the pandemic and will make adjustments as we learn more.

Cohorts launching Fall 2020 will be 6-7 months in duration and include:

• Cohort launch: Two ½-day sessions back to back
• Six ½-day sessions, roughly every three weeks
• Cohort closing: Two ½-day sessions back to back
• Ongoing: Peer partner check-ins for accountability and community building
• 2 – 3 socially distanced happy hours/social time as the evolving situation allows
• Optional: Up to 3 hours of coaching or strategic advising from either of the facilitators

Note: As King County moves to Phase 3 and beyond, we will work in collaboration with the cohort to move some of these sessions in-person and/or combine two half days for a full day retreat.

Additionally, we are specifically addressing questions of equity, inclusion, and belonging in more depth as a part of our ongoing commitment to a more just and equitable world. In alignment with GLF values we are accelerating our current efforts to center conversations in the cohort around how power, privilege, racism, colonialism, and the white savior complex interplay with global development work and leadership and management topics that we address in the cohort.
Our cohort retreats are organized over seven months. Each consists of a small group of leaders of globally oriented nonprofit, foundation, and businesses with a social purpose. The program is characterized by rich conversation, skill development and real-time problem solving.
