The Global Village for Future Leaders of Business and Industry ® is an applied leadership, cross cultural training program designed for young professionals and experienced students who share the dream of building a leadership career in business and industry, who want to make a positive change in life, and who want to form an active and global network.
Through interactive seminars, networking, business trips, consulting projects, and cultural experiences, Global Village interns learn the tools essential to becoming a successful leader. During your six weeks as a Global Village intern, you will find yourself amongst a diverse group of more than 75 interns, coming from more than 35 countries, representing a myriad of cultures, speaking multiple languages, and offering unique perspectives based on the group's varied educational backgrounds.
The Global Village experience is truly unique. The program requires no academic prerequisites and delivers no traditional grades. The internship provides "learning experiences", not "courses"; "discussions," not "lectures." Interns establish their own goals and objectives and work with Iacocca Institute® staff to map out an experienced-based action plan.
