Global Network of Director Institutes

In 2012, the Institute of Corporate Directors and eight other leading corporate director organizations formed the Global Network of Director Institutes (GNDI), an international collaboration of membership organizations to share expertise in corporate governance and professional director development.

Today, GNDI includes 21 director institutes among its members. It enables directors worldwide to stay abreast of leading practices as well as current and emerging governance issues. GNDI is designed to foster closer cooperation between its members, who are globally recognized for their pre-eminence in board and director development activity and collectively represent more than 150,000 individual directors.

It allows directors who are members of their GNDI home country member organization to access benefits from affiliated director institutes at discounted rates.
