Practical Knowledge & Real-World Insight

Top executives face a shrinking pool of appropriate mentors as they ascend through the ranks of their organizations. Finding individuals within their companies or professional networks from whom they can get fresh and relevant perspective, valuable second opinions, and “been there, done, that” insight becomes far more difficult.

GLG Institute’s (GLGi) mentorship model is an extraordinary opportunity to connect with more than 200 elite leaders who can share their executive learning and development through experienced and personalized counsel​. Each engagement is custom and confidential, intended to benefit both the member and their organization by:

Improving commercial performance

Accelerating readiness for new roles and responsibilities

Expanding personal and professional networks

Improving ability to make tough decisions

Avoiding costly missteps

Improving executive retention
