This dynamic two-part program begins with Part 1 at the Asia School of Business in Kuala Lumpur, followed by Part 2— a 4.5-day immersive leadership learning and development experience that unites the UAE’s cutting-edge digital innovation ecosystem with Southeast Asia’s ambitious growth trajectory. Participants will delve into immersive experiences at the Dubai Future Foundation, Masdar City, and the iconic Louvre, where innovation and heritage converge. These transformative visits, combined with MIT-inspired frameworks, empower leaders to design actionable strategies for meaningful organizational change while remaining anchored in core values and principles.
