TLML is a mentorship program that aims to identify and nurture emerging leaders with outsized potential, leveraging the Tällberg Foundation’s global network to accelerate their growth as impactful leaders. 

The Tällberg Foundation has a deep commitment to encouraging global, values-based leadership wherever we can find it. In a world beset by existential challenges, we believe the only sustainable solutions are the ones imagined and pursued by leaders who operate with courage, creativity, persistence, commitment to universal values—but, above all, an understanding that global challenges demand global solutions. 

The TLML concept is simple: in our messy world, we need as many extraordinary leaders as possible. Our program matches emerging leaders from a wide range of countries and disciplines with equally diverse established leaders in a focused, one-on-one, year-long process of conversation and collaboration designed to accelerate the development of high-potential leaders. 

Emerging leaders from any country, sector, or discipline who are committed to ethical leadership and making a meaningful difference in their communities and beyond are invited to complete an application.

How Does the Program Work?

In essence, TLML centers on leadership. The goal is to enhance participants’ understanding, skills, and readiness for values-based leadership on their respective professional journeys. The method focuses on matching each participant with an accomplished global leader from Tällberg’s worldwide network. 

Mentors and mentees are matched through a process of interviews, surveys and research—the key element of which is finding the right personal chemistry.  

The TLML program formally starts with an in-person multi-day workshop in January.  That program is designed to encourage conversation about leadership as well as about the global context in which leaders need to operate—today and tomorrow.  The goal is to jump-start mentee/mentor relationships, as well as to generate insights into the complexities of leadership, and counsel on coping with the kinds of challenges that characterize the early 21st century.

Subsequently, mentors and mentees meet virtually at least monthly over the balance of the year. Those meetings are supplemented by group “pulse checks” as well as other meetings, typically virtual, to explore various leadership issues as a group.

Graduates of the program will receive a certificate of completion and become integral members of Tällberg’s global network.
