Each engagement is custom and confidential, intended to benefit both the member and their organization by:

What Sets Us Apart

Lucian Ionescu, VP at UCB Pharma, has used GLG Institute for years, tapping into personalized, on-demand insights to become a better leader and boost his career in a competitive industry.

GLG Institute has helped me develop more in a year and a half than anything else in years of leadership training.

Blandine Lacroix, Corporate Vice President, BioPharm & Strategy, Novo Nordisk

Since we began partnering several years ago, nearly two dozen of our very best talents have spent a year or more working with GLGi’s highly skilled set of Advisors. The broad variety of professionals with deep and relevant experience has unquestionably added to our talents’ knowledge and expertise. Our executives have consistently told us the offering has served as a strong signal of our commitment to their development and strengthened their own engagement and company commitment.

Randall Bradford, Executive Vice President and Head of Human Resources, Healthcare, Merck KGaA

The on-demand access to specific expertise is powerful. It’s not your typical executive coaching or academic program. [GLG Institute] gives you the option to be transversal and identify specific experts with core expertise. …The ability to tap into that network and tailor a group of people based on your needs and your development plan is precious.

Lucian Ionescu​, VP, Head of Immunology Europe​
