2025-2026 Champion Program

The Elevate International Champion Program is pleased to extend an invitation to women in middle manager and director-level positions to apply for the 2025-2026 Champions Program. This esteemed twelve-month program, which will be launched in September 2025, is dedicated to empowering women leaders through executive mentorship and sponsorship, with the goal of advancing women into senior leadership roles.

By connecting emerging leaders with experienced senior executives, the program provides an opportunity for professional growth, strategic guidance, and the development of critical leadership competencies. Participants will receive the tools and support necessary to enhance their leadership potential and make a significant impact within their organizations and communities. Selected candidates will have access to the following:

• Executive Mentorship: You will be strategically matched with outstanding senior executives (CEOs, SVPs, VPs, Executive Directors, and more) who will champion your growth and share their insights to accelerate your path to the top.

• Strategic Presence: You will gain increased visibility where it matters most – to help you stand out as a leader in the community.

• Personalized Leadership Development: You will be asked to provide information on your application that will help us match you with the best-fit Champion. You will be invited to take on leadership challenges that will help you stretch that will help you rise up the ranks.

• Exclusive Events and Networking: You will access high-impact Elevate International events, from International Women’s Day celebrations to private networking sessions with influential leaders and dignitaries.

• A Vibrant Community: You will join a trusted, supportive network of successful women and Elevate Champions committed to advancing women’s leadership across sectors and industries.

As women continue to be represented in senior management and executive positions, the Elevate Champion Program strives to bridge this gap by fostering a diverse and inclusive leadership pipeline.

The application deadline September 12, 2025. There are limited spaces available. To make the program as accessible as possible, selected candidates will be encouraged to make a voluntary $500 donation, which can be made in monthly instalments to the Elevate International Foundation.
