What is the Lincoln Leadership Forum?

The Leadership Forum is a gathering of like-minded individuals who seek to impact the corporate environment of Albania.

The Lincoln Centers of Albania was started in 1997 with the mission “to develop leaders through educational excellence for the well-being of the Albanian people.”

The leadership forum is a space for organizational leaders to reflect, address critical issues facing their organizations, the country and the region and to network and grow together.

The goals of future forum gatherings include:

• Impact current organizational leaders with forum values
• Create a more interconnected ecosystem of like-minded leaders
• Boost the trust foreign investors have in investing in the region
