Conference Policies

By registering, you agree to these policies. 

Our conference operates on a community model where all participants—whether presenting or attending—register for the event. As a nonprofit membership organization, this approach allows us to keep costs reasonable while creating a space where everyone contributes to and benefits from our collective knowledge. We don’t offer speaker fees or complimentary registrations because we see presentations as part of the collaborative exchange that makes our community valuable. All concurrent session presenters also participate in the broader conversation, learning from colleagues and connecting with peers. This model helps us sustain our programs while reinforcing that we’re all here together, sharing our work and growing as a community.

As a virtual event, registration is non-refundable. If you are unable to attend live, you may access the on-demand recordings for a period of time after the event.  If you wish to transfer your registration to another person, you may do so up until 27 October 2025 by emailing conferences@ilaglobalnetwork.org.

By registering, you confirm that within the conference event space, your remarks and comments, both written and oral, will not violate any proprietary or personal rights of others (including any copyright, trademark, and privacy rights). They will be factually accurate and contain nothing defamatory or otherwise unlawful. You agree to release ILA from any liability if your presentation or remarks are found to violate trademark, copyright, or any other intellectual property right.

When we enter into the trusted space of the ILA, we are making a commitment to be in community with a diverse group of learners from around the world. The most powerful lever for change is in how we relate to, and connect with, one another, especially across differences. Connections are created and nurtured as we share our experiences and learn from the experiences and perspectives of others. This engenders a feeling of belonging that nourishes our creativity and advances our collective purpose of advancing the practice and study of leadership for a just and thriving future. Being in community with one another at ILA’s Global Conference is not just a vision, it is a leadership practice. Each person who enters this trusted space shares the responsibility to create an environment where everyone is respected and valued.
