GIFT's Global Young Leaders Programme (YLP)

• A unique leadership development programme and the first of its kind in Asia
• Incorporating cross-sectoral and action learning, sustainable benefits and the experience of working on real world issues within a multi-cultural and multi-disciplinary team setting
• Allowing the YLP participants, by taking part in an Asian field project, to learn through the eyes of others, expand their world view, witness how decisions made in one part of the world have impacts elsewhere, and use their skills to help with a specific development issue
• Enabling young leaders to understand future markets and customers and the complexities of doing business in Asia through our hand-picked projects which are directly linked to globalisation issues and have a real bearing on business and public-sector policies
• Since 2006, GIFT has conducted 20 YLP projects in six countries. Participating organizations include: MasterCard; DBS; FedEx; Porsche; AIA; Sonepar; IMC Group; Standard Chartered; NEC; Cathay Pacific, and many others.
