The New Generation of Industry Leaders (NGIL) is a global program designed to foster private-public collaboration, industry insights & thought leadership across three key areas - emerging technology, people centric transformation, and sustainable operations.
Industrial leaders face common challenges: an aging workforce, evolving technologies, sustainability demands, diversity needs, reputation issues, and industry misconceptions. A new leadership approach is crucial to address these complex issues in an unpredictable environment.
Revitalizing these industries and maximizing their societal impact requires challenging established norms and decisive leadership.
