Indiana University has announced formation of a Global Leaders Network at IU's Kelley School of Business.It will be funded by a gift from Fred G. Steingraber (pictured), a 1960 IU graduate who was chairman and chief executive officer of A.T. Kearney. Steingraber's gift provides $1.5 million in funding for GLN, which will consist of a worldwide network of business leaders and experts who will provide timely insight and unique commentary on a wide range of global business issues.
The GLN, initially implemented through the Kelley School's online MBA program, Kelley Direct, will provide learning resources for students in all Kelley School programs. Ultimately, the GLN will provide a global expert knowledge network that will serve alumni, students, faculty, business leaders, corporations and other IU programs.
The second part of the $2 million gift from Steingraber will dedicate $500,000 to provide resources for students aspiring to a career in management consulting by supporting Kelley's burgeoning consulting academy, institute and workshop.
