Ascentium partners with INSEAD to launch C-suite training in 2025

The full-time residential programme aims to build leadership capabilities for navigating complex business environments.

Ascentium has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with INSEAD to launch a tailored leadership development programme for its senior executives.

The Ascentium-INSEAD Leadership Development Programme will be held from 25 to 29 August 2025 at INSEAD’s Asia Campus in Singapore.

Designed specifically for Ascentium’s C-suite leaders, the full-time residential programme aims to build leadership capabilities for navigating complex business environments.

The curriculum was developed in collaboration with INSEAD’s Global Private Equity Initiative and focuses on the theme, “The Strategic Leader – Shaping Private Equity Success.”

It will include workshops, simulations, and case studies covering topics such as strategic growth in volatile markets, stakeholder management, and the impact of technology and AI on leadership.

Representatives from both organisations described the initiative as a step toward enhancing leadership development through structured, executive-level training.

According to INSEAD Programme Director Professor Philipp Meyer-Doyle, the customised programme is intended to support long-term talent development in a fast-evolving business landscape.

Ascentium noted that this initiative is the first in a series of planned leadership programmes and reflects its broader commitment to professional development.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
