Solving Leadership & Business Challenges
CNEXT is a highly-diverse global platform for leadership exchange, development, and advancement of high-potential leaders.
We achieve this through high-impact connections, communities and cohort-based learning that leverages truly unique assets, including world-class practitioners and experts, a large community of former Fortune-ranked CEOs, best-in-class organizations and a broad and exceptionally diverse network of executive peers.
The Executive Leaders Forum enables senior executive leaders to directly address their most critical business and leadership challenges by serving as a primary source of learning, development, and peer connection, in a candid, protected environment.
The program combines the most effective and proven elements of peer collaboration and actionable learnings from former Fortune-ranked CEOs to increase the leader’s impact on the organization’s performance in a time and cost-efficient way.
The Accelerate Program provides leaders from diverse and under-represented communities, and their direct managers with peer connections, learning, and development through access to leading corporations and best-in-class practitioners who serve to collectively solve the ongoing challenge of advancing diverse leaders in senior corporate ranks.
By unlocking the unrealized potential of diverse leaders, our program helps organizations accelerate the development and advancement of people from diverse and under-represented communities.
Our innovative capability development model provides holistic programming for executive and emerging leaders - designed to maximize leadership skills and expose members to new ideas and diverse perspectives. Always looking through a DEI lense to build a global pipeline of CEO-ready diverse talent.
Today's leaders have packed calendars, full plates, and very little free time. Our methodology is designed to deliver maximum development with less time commitment that other models require. This gives leaders the time to focus on business objectives without distractions or competing priorities.
CNEXT forums meet virtually with multiple in-person interactions with the broader CNEXT community. The Executive Leaders Forum provides a personalized 1-year program to help members solve today's challenges. The Accelerate program is an 18-month intensive to prepare leaders from diverse and under-represented communities for the C-Suite.
Members of our Executive Leaders Forum were identified and invited based on significant current roles and high potential for additional leadership scope and impact. The Accelerate Program member companies are selected based on their commitment to DEI at the executive and board levels.
Forum engagements are guided discussions facilitated by CEO Network members or World-Class practitioners. Executive Leaders collaborate to solve problems, learn from each other, and anticipate challenges. Emerging leaders build leadership and personal impact skills along with functional excellence for C-suite readiness.
