The Global Leadership Academy challenges leaders to look inward before they lead outward. Through four and a half days of guided work, you uncover how your decisions, communication, and presence shape the people who rely on you and learn practices that strengthen your impact.

GLA asks leaders to pause long enough to understand how they lead.
You examine the habits, assumptions, and patterns that shape your leadership. You learn frameworks that support clarity and presence. You uncover what strengthens your influence and what may limit it.
For many participants, GLA becomes a turning point in how they show up professionally and personally.
GLA combines guided exercises, facilitated dialogue, and immersive learning designed to reveal how you think, communicate, and lead. You spend time with experienced facilitators who help you identify strengths, blind spots, and opportunities for growth.
You work in small groups that encourage honesty, reflection, and shared discovery.
Leadership frameworks grounded in self-awareness
Exercises that build trust, clarity, and presence
Small group discussions that deepen insight
Experiences that connect learning to real decisions
You learn alongside EO members who have led chapters and regions and understand the responsibility of guiding others. The environment encourages openness and accountability. You leave with relationships grounded in shared growth and honest reflection.
GLA draws leaders who want clarity, purpose, and a stronger foundation for the decisions ahead.
The lessons from GLA extend far beyond the event.
You return with a clearer understanding of what drives your leadership and how to align your actions with your values. You gain tools that help you communicate more effectively, navigate challenges with confidence, and lead with greater presence.
Many members describe GLA as one of EO’s most transformative learning experiences because its impact continues long after the academy ends.
Attending GLA was one of the most transformative leadership experiences of my life. We were introduced to incredible people who had accomplished the impossible, helping us believe we could do the same. I walked away with lifelong friends, deeper self-awareness, and a whole new level of clarity and confidence in how I lead.
-Christine Buhr, EO Calgary
There is just so much difference we can make by leading leaders: We learn to lead ourselves. We learn to lead our families. We learn to make a difference in the world. Not only does it help you become a better leader.
-Kim Liddell, EO Sydney
If you want a leadership experience that sharpens your awareness, strengthens your presence, and deepens your ability to guide others, the Global Leadership Academy is right for you.
