Streamed Live Virtually For all Registrants
As organizations expand, local communities grow, and modern technology advances, society is more connected across cultures than ever. Within our communities and workforces, there is a vital need for individuals who understand how to engage and lead ethically in a globalized world.
So, how do emerging and experienced leaders develop the essential skills necessary to thrive in these environments?
The 2025 Shelton Leadership Forum equips attendees with practical strategies to foster effective engagement through cultural competency, analyze the ethical implications of leadership actions, and prioritize the shared values and perspectives of their communities both locally and globally.
Expert speakers and thought leaders will engage the audience by providing resources that drive ethical decision-making and produce collaborative connections across cultures.
