Ascentium, a global business services platform based in Singapore, has announced a partnership with INSEAD, a leading graduate business school, to launch the Ascentium-INSEAD Leadership Development Programme. This initiative, aimed at developing Ascentium’s C-suite executives, will run from 25 to 29 August 2025 at INSEAD’s Asia Campus in Singapore. The programme is designed to build a resilient leadership pipeline by focusing on strategic growth and innovation in a rapidly changing world.
The curriculum, crafted in collaboration with INSEAD’s Global Private Equity Initiative, will cover themes such as strategic growth in a VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity) environment, stakeholder expectations, and technological innovation. Participants will engage in workshops, simulations, and case studies to enhance their leadership skills.
Lennard Yong, Founding Management and Group CEO of Ascentium, stated, “As we navigate the complexities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, marked by rapid technological change and macroeconomic uncertainty, our partnership with INSEAD is a strategic step to future-proof our leadership.” He emphasised the company’s commitment to investing in its leadership to achieve competitive excellence.
Professor Philipp Meyer-Doyle, Programme Director for Ascentium at INSEAD, praised Ascentium’s growth and dedication to human capital development. He noted, “Ascentium’s leaders have a clear vision and strategy to achieve it, as well as a proven track record in doing so.”
This programme marks the beginning of a multi-year partnership between Ascentium and INSEAD, reflecting a long-term commitment to professional development and a culture of excellence.
