Young Global Leaders

(Redirected from Young Global Leader)

Forum of Young Global Leaders, or Young Global Leaders (YGL), was created by Klaus Schwab, founder of the World Economic Forum. The YGL, a non-profit organization managed from Geneva, Switzerland, is under the supervision of the Swiss government. It is run by the World Economic Forum.

History

edit

The program was founded by Klaus Schwab of the World Economic Forum in 1992 under the name “Global Leaders for Tomorrow” and was renamed to Young Global Leaders in 2003.[1]

Schwab created the group with $1 million won from the Dan David Prize,[2] and the inaugural 2005 class comprised 237 young leaders.

Reception

edit

BusinessWeek's Bruce Nussbaum describes the Young Global Leaders as "the most exclusive private social network in the world",[3] while the organization itself describes the selected leaders as representing "the voice for the future and the hopes of the next generation".

Selection process

edit

Representing 70 different nations, Young Global Leaders are nominated by alumni to serve six-year terms and are subject to veto during the selection process. Candidates must be younger than 38 years old at the time of acceptance (meaning active YGLs are 44 and younger), and highly accomplished in their fields.[4][5][6] Over the years, there have been many hundreds of honorees, including several popular celebrities, alongside recognized high achievers and innovators in politics, business, academia, media, and the arts.[7] It is said that the group of some 1400 individuals comprise individuals who head numerous governments, Fortune 500 companies, have received Nobel Peace Prizes and Grammy Awards, and serve as UN Goodwill Ambassadors.[8]

The selection process includes a screening and an interview.[9] Roughly 100 YGL are selected every year.

Michelle Rempel, a Canadian Conservative politician, says she found out she had been selected as a Young Global Leader in 2016 with an email that she thought was a spam, and described a 2017 meeting as "no different in feel from an academic conference, if a bit more global in nature and with more high-profile politicians and CEOs in attendance."[10]

Selected List of Young Global Leaders

Young Global Leaders straddle various fields, and are often highly accomplished leaders in their respective fields, including leading politicians, royalty, very senior members of Government, social activists and those in the business and finance world.
