The IJIS Leadership Academy
Empowering the Next Generation of Private and Public Sector Leaders
Since 2001, the IJIS Institute has stood at the crossroads of rapid change, helping the public and private sectors collaborate for a better future for all. Over the course of that time, we have worked closely with leadership from both arenas to ensure progress is made and that future leaders are prepared to continue our great work. In many ways, the IJIS Leadership Academy has been in the making since that time, connecting the right people with the resources needed to lead through changing and sometimes challenging times.Â
Today, the IJIS Leadership Academy represents the collation of those ideas, knowledge and expertise to helps shape the innovation and leadership today, and to define the future decision-makers of tomorrow.
