A compelling personal brand will set you apart from the competition and allows you to build trust as you connect more easily with your customers, colleagues, and peers.

What will leadership looks like in the future? Future leaders will need to be innovative, collaborative, adaptive and be able to apply emotional intelligence, use opportunities for reflection on one’s work performance and leadership style, and display effective communication techniques and behaviours that demonstrate the organisation’s values and ethics. Importantly, they will also need to be both strategic and agile to build tomorrow’s talent, and to be able to think globally and embrace diversity. The module aims to elevate leaders to scale new heights and seize ‘undiscovered’ business opportunities by being operationally ready with the right mindset, skills, knowledge and necessary resources. The key focus is on developing future leadership qualities and behaviours to meet the needs of evolving landscape.

Stress and fatigue are a common experience among the working population with the modern lifestyle and more so during and after the pandemic. An average person will spend at least 90,000 hours* working over a lifetime - that is one-third of our lives! While technology enables us to work anytime and anywhere, the lines between our career and personal lives are gradually blurring. More people are finding it difficult to ‘unplug’ and inevitably bring their underlying state of wellness to work, affecting job performances.

This uncertain and rapidly changing environment brought about by digitalisation poses great challenges and yet offers new opportunities. Ability to learn, unlearn and relearn will position one to quickly identify & seize opportunities.
