The Global Leadership Foundation (GLF) is a not-for-profit, non-governmental organisation comprising a network of former heads of state or government and other distinguished leaders who seek to assist developing countries improve governance, bolster democratic institutions and resolve conflicts. The organisation does so by providing free confidential advice to current heads of governments committed to peace, democracy and development. It was formed in 2004 by former South African President F. W. de Klerk and is active across the world. It does not publicize the countries in which it works.

Organisation

{{unreferenced section|date=August 2018}}

The Global Leadership Foundation is based on the General Assembly of members (GLF members), who are led by a board of directors and served by a small secretariat.

There are currently 44 GLF members, all former heads of government and distinguished leaders. New members are selected by existing members.

The GLF Board is responsible for the objectives of the Global Leadership Foundation and for all decisions relating to the foundation's structure, governance, strategic aims and financial management, including the secretariat work plan and budget. The chairman of the GLF Board is F. W. de Klerk.

The board is advised on the strategic direction and evolution of the foundation by a strategy and development committee. The chair of the committee is Sir Victor Blank.

The activities of the organization are coordinated by a small secretariat based in London. The secretariat is the hub of the GLF network, linking GLF members with other parts of the network, including the foundation's business, governmental and non-governmental partners. The CEO of GLF is Sir Robert Fulton.

The foundation is supported by the GLF International Council, which consists of organisations and individuals who recognize the importance of GLF's work and support the foundation financially. A limit is placed on the size of each donation to preserve the foundation's independence.

GLF is registered in the Canton of Bern, Switzerland. It has two associate foundations: GLF (USA), a 501(c)(3) foundation registered in Delaware, US; and GLF (UK), a charity registered in England and Wales.
