EHL Hospitality Business School, in partnership with the Singapore Tourism Board (STB), has unveiled the Tourism Leadership Excellence & Advancement Programme (T-LEAP).
This initiative is designed to empower senior executives in the tourism sector with essential skills to navigate and shape the future of tourism in Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region. The programme, which runs over five days at EHL Campus (Singapore), includes modules on leadership, sustainability, and technology.
The T-LEAP programme is EHL’s first to be funded by SkillsFuture, highlighting its alignment with Singapore’s workforce needs.
Participants will join the Singapore Leaders Network, fostering cross-sector collaboration. The programme’s inaugural pilot was successfully delivered earlier this year, with additional sessions scheduled for May, October, and November 2025.
The curriculum, developed in collaboration with STB, addresses the evolving needs of tourism executives. It includes three core modules: Leadership Excellence & Strategic Growth, Sustainability & Innovation, and Technology & Digital Transformation.
Participants will gain insights into strategic planning, sustainability practices, and digital trends, enhancing their ability to drive innovation in the tourism sector.
Dr. Guy Llewellyn from EHL emphasised the programme’s role in preparing professionals for the rapidly changing tourism landscape. Melissa Ow, Chief Executive of STB, noted the importance of developing tourism leadership to navigate the industry’s evolution.
Following the successful pilot, STB has confirmed further programme runs, reflecting confidence in its impact. T-LEAP offers professionals from Singapore and the APAC region the opportunity to engage with industry experts and explore emerging trends, positioning themselves at the forefront of tourism’s evolution.
