Glass Leadership Institute

WHAT IS THE GLASS LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE?

The Glass Leadership Institute is a nationally recognized young leadership development program for the Anti-Defamation League offered in more than 20 ADL regions. The Institute is made possible through the generous support of Shirley and the late Sherwin Glass of Atlanta, Georgia.

The Glass Leadership Institute is designed for a select group of young professionals as an up-close and personal opportunity to expand their knowledge about the nation’s premier human relations organization. Participants are expected to commit themselves to attend monthly sessions throughout the year and attend the annual Shana Amy Glass National Leadership Conference, held each spring, in Washington DC.

Goals of the Glass Leadership Institute include but are not limited to:

• Developing a cadre of leaders who will be effective advocates on behalf of ADL in their communities and beyond;
• Educating young professionals on the core mission and programs of ADL;
• Preparing emerging leaders to confront the issues facing the Jewish community and community at large; and
• Gaining perspective from other young leaders in the community
