“The Indigenous Leadership Development Institute, Inc. has provided opportunity for Indigenous communities and organizations to build leadership capacity and create formidable partnerships with corporations that are mutually beneficial to our communities across the globe”.

Phil Fontaine

Former National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations

"The Indigenous Leadership Development Institute (ILDI) has long been an organization that has brought significant capacity building opportunities to the First Nations of Manitoba. We at the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs have, over the years, had an excellent working relationship with ILDI producing important benefits to community economic development initiatives, local governance and program management. I am pleased to offer my full support of ILDI, and know that their efforts will continue to strengthen our First Nation communities."

Ron Evans

Former Grand Chief of the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs and former Chief of Norway House Cree Nation

“The Leadership Development Institute has been beneficial to me and my role as Chief, the institute has provided me with the tools I require going forward. ILDI has a very bright future as they not only provide the right tools to their clients they build capacity by bringing those successors back. So proud to say I am one of those successors”.
