Center for Next-Generational Leadership
Academic Partnerships & Collaboration
We collaborate with academic institutions around the world to reimagine leadership education for today's complex global landscape. Through joint research, innovative teaching models, and cross-cultural learning experiences, we equip students and faculty to lead with purpose, inclusivity, and impact. Our center is for educators and academic partners looking to connect, co-create, and contribute to the future of leadership development.

Faculty Collaboration Opportunities

Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL)
COIL connects students and faculty from around the world in virtual, cross-cultural projects. There experiences foster global collaboration, cultural competence, and real-world learning: often resulting in student-authored publications that showcase their work on an international page.

Guest Lecturing
We welcome faculty from partner institutions around the world to participate as guest lecturers in our course and events. These sessions offer students innovative global perspectives while fostering academic exchange and collaboration.

Research Partnerships
We partner with universities and researchers worldwide to explore global leadership challenges. These collaborations lead to joint publications, real-world projects and innovative solutions that make a lasting impact.
Global Academic Partnerships
Partners of America Grant: Funded COIL Program
As part of our most recent COIL project, students from Dominican University, St. Mary's University (Canada), and Anáhuac University (Mexico City) came together for a dynamic, cross cultural learning experience. They collaborated on real-world business challenges, explored innovative solutions, and build meaningful connections across borders, preparing to lead with purpose in a globalized world.
