Hilton Foundation announces cohort of virtual leadership scholars
The Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, in collaboration with Atlas Corps, has announced the second cohort of the Hilton Humanitarian Prize Laureate Virtual Leadership Institute.
Fifty Hilton Prize Scholars, representing 23 of the 26 prize laureate organizations, will participate in a five-month virtual leadership training. This year’s cohort includes professionals from 31 countries whose backgrounds range from project management and communications to fundraising. This year, the institute will focus on the themes of developing self, developing others, and leading movements, while the scholars work to strengthen connections within the prize laureate community. The online program includes interactive workshops, self-led activities, discussion groups, and community-building activities with U.S. organizations and leaders.
“Atlas Corps is honored to collaborate with the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation and to welcome another cohort of inspired individuals from the Hilton Prize laureate community to our global network,” said Atlas Corps CEO Bidjan Nashat. “Now is the moment when we need to inspire rising global leaders as we prepare them to manage themselves and others through challenging times. This concept is why I am so energized to continue championing leadership development and creating opportunities for emerging talent regardless of physical location.”
