IILS and Nalaka Hewamadduma Partner to Launch a Transformational Leadership Program in Sri Lanka

The Imperial Institute of Leadership & Strategy (IILS), the executive education and strategic consulting arm of the Imperial Group, proudly announces a strategic partnership with Nalaka Hewamadduma, one of Sri Lanka's most respected and globally acclaimed leadership trainers, to launch a Transformational Leadership Program designed to empower Sri Lankan corporates for exponential growth.

Global Expertise Meets Local Innovation

With over two decades of international experience spanning Sri Lanka, Canada, the United States, and Africa, Nalaka brings a wealth of global insight, practical wisdom, and proven expertise in leadership development. His collaboration with IILS marks a new era for leadership education in Sri Lanka, one rooted in research, innovation, and measurable impact.

World-Class Program Design

The newly developed Transformational Leadership Program is benchmarked against Ivy League university models and underpinned by cutting-edge global leadership research. The program introduces a world-class, proprietary learning framework uniquely adapted for the Sri Lankan corporate context, ensuring that leaders not only learn but transform to deliver results and drive long-term organizational success.

Building on Four Decades of Excellence

IILS, as the leadership and strategy arm of the Imperial Group, builds upon the Group's four-decade legacy of excellence, having empowered over 75,000 professionals and established itself as the nation's most trusted name in business and CIMA education. With a mission to advance leadership excellence and strategic capability, IILS stands as the only dedicated institute for leadership development in Sri Lanka, a critical missing piece in the nation's growth journey.

Leadership Voices

"This collaboration with IILS is about creating a movement, not just another leadership program. Together, we aim to equip leaders to rise above disruption, inspire transformation, and create exponential value for their organizations and the country."

"Sri Lanka's next phase of growth depends on bold, visionary, and agile leadership. Partnering with a global thought leader like Nalaka enables us to deliver world-class programs that are locally relevant and globally benchmarked."

Reinforcing Leadership Authority

Through this partnership, IILS reinforces its position as Sri Lanka's leadership authority, bringing world-class knowledge, global best practices, and transformative learning experiences to the nation's corporate landscape alongside complementary executive development, advisory, and research programs.
