PITTSBURGH, Pa., Feb. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Evan Frazier, founding director of The Advanced Leadership Initiative (TALI), is taking on a new role as president and CEO of
The Advanced Leadership Institute, Inc. (TALI Institute) on March 8, 2021. Frazier will be leaving his current role as senior vice president of Community Affairs at Highmark Health in early March. This transition follows the receipt of a Richard King Mellon Foundation grant in December of 2020 to support TALI's expansion into an institute. It was Frazier's early vision as founding director, along with guidance from TALI's Executive Committee, that launched The Advanced Leadership Initiative in 2018. During that time, TALI partnered with Carnegie Mellon University's Tepper School of Business to develop its signature program, the Executive Leadership Academy. The Advanced Leadership Institute will continue the initial efforts of the initiative and plans to announce its expanded strategic direction in Summer 2021. Over the next few months, Evan will be focused on building the TALI Institute team, securing additional resources, and developing a portfolio of opportunities to impact a larger pool of African American leaders.
