Organizer: Iacocca Institute at Lehigh University
The event is hold annually in summer
Participation: Young professionals and mature students from the
ages of 21 to 35 who have the goal to become leaders in business and industry
are invited. Number of participants is limited to 75 persons.
The program is designed to:
-Enhance participants' leadership skills
-Develop a network of friends who are current and future leaders
-Clarify participants' career goals from a "mountain top" perspective
There are no academic prerequisites and there will be no traditional grades.
Instead, interns will select a set of personal leadership metrics and
track, with their guides, their own changes over the Global Village experience.
 Learning
experience: During the six weeks of the Global Village, most of the
learning experiences will take place at Lehigh University. Focus will
be placed on three areas of learning: business and industry knowledge,
leadership and entrepreneurial skills, and global networking and understanding
other cultures. Executives from large and small companies, entrepreneurs,
world class faculty from several partner institutions, and associated
friends will be delighted to share their experiences and perspectives
with the participants. Through interaction with these executives, other
interns, learning guides, and through self-reflection, participants can
proceed to build convictions, and develop new decision-making perspectives.
Courses offered within the Global Village framework are grouped into three
"tracks":
-Globalization
-Electronic commerce
-Starting your own business
Weekend trips will take advantage of Bethlehem's key location within driving
distance from New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and Washington.
