SUPPORT THE NEXT GENERATION
Help us advance women’s leadership
today and tomorrow
For more than 30 years, IWF’s flagship Leadership Fellows Program has accelerated the career paths of high-performing women, catalyzing their potential and elevating their impact within companies worldwide. The program’s scope, rigor, and results make it an unparalleled tool for professional development and succession planning.
We invite corporations and members of the IWF community to learn more about how to support women’s leadership through this transformational program. For more information, please contact Lynne Manrique, Vice President of Leadership and Educational Programs, at iwf@iwforum.org.
For Corporations
The Leadership Fellows Program provides organizations with a strategic way to successfully build leadership capacity from within; motivate and retain high-performing senior women leaders for new and expanded responsibilities; and demonstrate a commitment to inclusive leadership.
Organizations that sponsor Fellows tell us they value the broader worldview, new perspectives, and greater confidence that their women leaders bring back.
