The SGLN Launchpad is a six-month leadership development programme designed to equip aspiring mid-level professionals with the capabilities, community support, and confidence to take on regional or global leadership roles.
It responds to community needs by providing structured leadership development at an earlier career stage and aims to strengthen Singapore’s leadership pipeline.
This programme emphasises real-world learning through an in-person leadership module, professionally facilitated peer learning sessions, and a virtual sharing segment where participants craft and deliver a high-impact presentation to their peers. We encourage all SGLN Launchpad participants to attend the annual SGLN Learning Festival.
