About Global Talent Initiatives

For nearly 70 years, Asia Society has been the leading educational organization dedicated to promoting mutual understanding and strengthening partnerships among peoples, leaders and institutions of Asia and the United States in a global context. Across the fields of arts, business, culture, education, and policy, the Society provides insight, generates ideas, and promotes collaboration to address present challenges and create a shared future.
In 2007, Asia Society launched these initiatives to leverage its public voice in the area of global talent and leadership. Our programming is guided by the following:
- An understanding that integrating culturally responsive leadership development into a company’s long-term strategy is a key component to that institution’s innovation, profitability, and future
- A belief that the responsibility for enacting change must be shared between all professionals, allies, and leadership, thus making collaboration essential
- An emphasis on actionable solutions that speak to the specific and varied challenges that professionals face in the workplace, considering their citizenship and culture
Asia Society’s Global Talent Initiatives platform includes the Global Talent Council; Global Talent Symposium; annual Global Impact Awards; Global Talent Speaker Series and networking events; and professional development webinars.
