About the Fellowship

GLG is the world’s leading platform for professional learning. The Social Impact Fellowship leverages GLG’s learning platform to help top social sector professionals answer critical strategic and organizational questions, at no cost. Through the Fellowship, ambitious, innovative, and visionary nonprofit and social enterprise leaders learn in tailored interactions with experts across GLG’s membership and with each other.

The Fellowship begins with identifying the top challenges facing Fellows’ organizations. Dedicated GLG Research Managers help design engagements around these challenges, as thought partners and resources for Fellows and their management teams. Tailored learning opportunities include phone consultations with subject matter experts, in-person meetings, roundtable discussions, teleconferences, and workshops. In addition to curated interactions designed for Fellows and their teams, they have access to GLG’s rich ongoing events offering throughout the year.
