The European Center for Leadership Development (ECLD) is an international network of scholars and practitioners who offer executive education programs to public and private sector and educational professionals based on the leadership model set forth by Alexandre Havard in his book Virtuous Leadership—An Agenda for Personal Excellence. It seeks to contribute, on a global basis, to the creation of a leadership culture rooted in the moral, intellectual and spiritual heritage of Athens, Rome and Jerusalem.
ECLD is an international network of consultants who believe that the classical human virtues constitute the indispensable essence of successful leadership, an authentic way of achieving a flourishing corporate culture independent of the type of enterprise and a sure way of attaining the common good.
Founded on September 9, 2004 in Helsinki as a Finland corporation, ECLD started by offering character-based leadership seminars to companies in the Nordic countries, the Baltic region and Russia . The organization rapidly evolved from a corporation to an international network of consultants. This organizational model has allowed it to expand rapidly to meet the demand for virtues-based leadership formation in a wide variety of countries and cultural zones.
