Leading Cross-Enterprise

A thought leader in leadership practice

 

Welcome video from Executive Director, Gerard SeijtsWhat does it take to lead cross-enterprise? How are great leaders developed? Who leads best, and how do they do it?

These are some of the questions addressed in Ivey’s Ian O. Ihnatowycz Institute for leadership, Canada’s foremost leadership Institute.

Ivey has been developing business leaders for more than 85 years. Researchers at the Institute explore the essential competencies and character traits that add up to great leadership – the ‘secret sauce’ that inspires, energizes and creates value in organizations.

Through rigorous research projects, extensive case writing, conferences and collaborations, the Institute provides a locus for leadership inquiry. It is the research home of more than 20 exceptional teacher-scholars and 10 graduate students.

Ultimately, our goal is to create new knowledge that will improve the practice of business leadership and help develop the next generation of business leaders.
