Future Leaders Council

 

The Future Leaders Council is a programme aimed at nurturing and promoting rising stars in the meetings and events space. The FLC was created to extend the influence of the up-and-coming generation of professionals who make a lasting impact on our industry and beyond.

During an elected two-year, fixed-term post, ICCA guides, supports, and elevates future industry advocates by facilitating the sharing of ideas and strategies to keep ICCA current, relevant, and positioned as thought leaders for the association meeting community.

The Future Leaders Council works on two projects: one chosen by members, and one selected by the ICCA Board. Participants remain linked to ICCA through a specially created alumni programme, ensuring ICCA’s ongoing commitment to promoting dynamic young talent.
