Shaping the Future of Business Education

I-LEAD: Innovation, Leadership, Education and Development is focused on student success and addressing the gaps between traditional academic practices and the changing needs of students, business and society in an equitable, inclusive and sustainable way.

  • To develop well-researched pedagogy and provide educators with more holistic frameworks and better tools to educate conscious business leaders
  • To build partnerships with students, industry, government, and other institutions to co-create, pilot and showcase innovative approaches for business education
  • To grow a global network of meaningful and aligned collaborators focused on the future of business education
  • To provide a safe and nurturing environment for collaborators to test new initiatives
