IBLF builds the capacity of all sectors - business, government and civil society - to work collaboratively on responsible business initiatives

Underpinning IBLF’s programmes and work with business are the concepts of Leadership and Collaboration.

LEADERSHIP

IBLF’s Leaders Council
IBLF’s Leaders Council comprises a group of senior figures who debate and explore the big ideas for responsible business in the 21st century - members include current and former CEOs from Coca Cola, Diageo, Infosys and Shell. The Leaders Council is open to the Chair or CEO of companies joining IBLF as members. The Council’s sessions are virtual, small and private, allowing members to talk openly to explore potential solutions to global challenges, and to create real momentum by actioning them through IBLF’s programmes.

Leading Growth – Global Leadership Forums
IBLF convenes and partners on high-level events throughout the year and across the world. A selection of recent leadership forums include: ‘Leading Growth: Smart, Inclusive, Responsible’, an invitation-only dialogue in London; ‘What makes a Global Business Leader’ for 30 CEOs of private Chinese companies and MNCs; and the ‘Third Annual Russia Legal Forum’ on the Russian regulatory environment.

Leadership Redefined - Thought Leadership and Research
IBLF’s work defines the leadership needed to support an increased emphasis on sustainable growth. It is informed by thought leadership and research, including a series of interviews with Chairmen and CEO’s of some of the world’s largest companies.

"IBLF is an outstanding place to discuss, think and exchange information on best practice"

COLLABORATION

The Partnering Initiative (TPI)
TPI is dedicated to driving widespread and effective collaboration between civil society, government and companies. Visit the official TPI website here.

TPI has worked in over 25 countries to-date and continuously breaks new ground in improving the practice of cross-sector collaboration. The programme's focus areas are:

To systematise the essential processes of partnering and develop practical tools

Professional development and capacity-building programmes

Strategic advice and support across sectors

The Partnership Brokers Association
The Partnership Brokers Association is a spin-off of IBLF’s pioneering work to set standards, promote integrity and professionalise the ‘brokering’ of cross-sector partnerships. More than 600 people from 70+ countries are graduates of basic partnership brokering training, with over 300 brokers professionally accredited by IBLF. From January 2012, the PBA becomes an independent professional body running training courses, advocating the use of partnership brokers and gathering evidence for their efficacy.
