Global Governance and Future Leadership Awards
The challenges of today’s world are civilizational, and in this case, require responses and decisions bearing a civilizational vision.

Post-World War II governance does not respond to current challenges and especially those of humanity’s future.

The GLOBAL GOVERNANCE & FUTURE LEADERSHIP AWARDS aspires to identify rewards, put forward global solutions, and thereby promote leaders and leadership behaviors that have the potential to produce positive change in the face of significant resistance.
Initial idea
The initial idea of this Award and to reward the leaders of tomorrow comes from daniel DELFANI, the president of Methodologica Governance University in Paris and Montreal. The founding concept of this prize is based on strategic foresight and innovative methods that explore how to lead the future world, to be in perfect harmony with the challenges of humanity in its entirety. We must rediscover the past, and the future, to better manage today. This requires the application of a new exploratory approach and a critical perception, both on the principles of leadership (governance) and on new and old issues, threatening the peace and prosperity of humanity.
The GLOBAL GOVERNANCE & FUTURE LEADERSHIP AWARDS seeks to identify and honor people who are acting—and leading—in principled ways that challenge paradigms that need to be challenged and who have the potential to inspire others to do the same.
The Prize is awarded annually to outstanding leaders in the different areas who demonstrate the willingness and capacity to address the complexity of 21st-century challenges in innovative, risk-taking, and ethical ways, and whose work is global in aspiration or implication and is rooted in universal and human values. In fact, the vision of this prize is to find the means to explore and exploit the future. As a result, our interlocutor is the leaders of tomorrow, the governance of the future, and the visionary managers. One fundamental principle is that great leadership is not bound by geography or tradition or race. In practice, that means potential winners can come from any country, any discipline, any gender, and any religion. The current form and format of the GLOBAL GOVERNANCE & FUTURE LEADERSHIP AWARDS were established in 2021; however, the GLOBAL GOVERNANCE & FUTURE LEADERSHIP AWARDS began recognizing principled global leadership criteria in 2020.
The GLOBAL GOVERNANCE & FUTURE LEADERSHIP AWARDS believes that he represents the kind of visionary leadership they seek to honor with this prize, since great leaders can make a profound difference only if, like Nelson Mandela, they operate in concert with universal human values and are tireless in their efforts as well as innovative in their approaches. That said, this is not a prize for diplomats, politicians, CEO of great companies, but an award that takes Mandela and other visionary leaders’ approach to leadership as a measure and criteria against which others can be measured.
