The economy is evolving – are you? The New Economy focused on circular, green, sustainability, and advanced technologies like RPA and AI fundamentally differ from before. Yet, although technology solutions exist, most leaders are not equipped to implement the volume of transformation required to succeed.

We can help. ILI provides sophisticated leadership development, coaching, and assessment solutions that facilitate behavioral change and accelerate culture transformation aligned with an organization’s strategy and goals. Everything focuses on integrating leadership innovation into organizational DNA, incorporating it into the cultural foundation by targeting systems, processes, mindsets, and behaviors.

Why Us?
Today’s environment requires leaders to be dramatically different if they want to succeed. According to the World Economic Forum’s Global Risk Report 2022, leaders expect the next three years to be characterized by consistent volatility, “multiple surprises,” and fractured trajectories that separate winners and losers. Today’s challenges – disruption caused by climate events, the erosion of societal cohesion, a livelihood crisis, and mental health deteriorations – will be further compounded by environmental risk from climate action failure, extreme weather, and loss of biodiversity. Even recent ways of thinking and being no longer suffice.
We offer clients and our community these advantages:
- We stay abreast of the most significant global economic risks and equip leaders to deal with them.
- We incorporate the latest, evidence-based frameworks and approaches into a practical application that delivers results. Browse our Thought Leadership area for our award-winning books, articles, and over 350 radio interviews.
- We focus on the interconnectedness of the leader and the organization, as well as their mindsets and behaviors, which enables all to evolve together in a cohesive, coordinated way. Read about some of our successes.
- We use specialized assessments and tools to create personalized development plans that reflect your goals, skills, gaps, and organizational context.
