The Singapore Leaders Network Fellowship (SGLN Fellowship) is a prestigious leadership development programme for mid-to-senior level Singaporean leaders.

It is designed to prepare participants for global leadership roles, with a focus on general management and leadership in a global setting. The SGLN Fellowship is aimed at global-minded Singaporean leaders who have demonstrated leadership success in their careers.

The SGLN Fellowship is a programme driven towards professional outcomes, via a deeply personal experience. The opportunity to meet Singaporeans on leadership tracks within their organisations who are willing to share openly about their leadership learnings has been invaluable to me. If you’re looking to broaden your professional network across diverse sectors and challenge assumptions about your leadership style amongst trusted peers, I highly recommend this.

The value of the SGLN Fellowship lies in its unique ability to bring leaders across multiple disciplines together for a common purpose, something I greatly value as it broadens my perspective on culture, leadership, and ability to navigate in an increasingly fragmented world, allowing me to grow in ways I otherwise wouldn’t have.

Luke Ingrouille

Associate Director, HSBC

The SGLN Fellowship has been an amazing journey where I got to meet new people and discover new perspectives outside of my industry. It has been a great opportunity to broaden my network and experience new learning opportunities.

Hui Min

Director, Corporate Strategy & Business Development, Jumbo Group of Restaurants

The SGLN Fellowship has been a life changing experience for me. The opportunity to be part of a concise and structured programme to interact, grow, and build a network together with other Singaporean leaders in a safe environment is invaluable.

Deven Lim

Chief Executive Officer, Lockton Companies (Singapore)

Amazingly impactful and intensive. Never a dull moment with 60 high-performing individuals gathered in a room actively listening, contributing and applying. Leadership is a deliberate and intentional journey, and this programme reminded us that to get to the top, hard work and drive need to be continually injected. I’m proud to have been included in this cohort, and I’m sure we will forge strong ties ahead to cheer and support one another. Kudos again to all the organisers and EDB / HCLI!

Camy Loh

Deputy Managing Director, Royal Vopak

The SGLN Fellowship experience has helped give me more clarity of both the adventure and challenges of the road ahead, renewed my commitment to make an impact, and has given me a deep sense of mission to be an advocate in the journey for more global business leaders to say ‘I am Singaporean’.

APAC Associate Marketing Director, Kimberly-Clark

The SGLN Fellowship has been a great curated experience. I am very proud of Singapore for putting this valuable programme together, and I am excited about our journey ahead.

Innovation, and Sustainability, OIA Global

My utmost gratitude to the SGLN team for the outstanding facilitation during the SGLN Fellowship. The faculty’s expertise created an environment conducive to learning, growth, and meaningful connections. The diversity of perspectives and experiences among the participants, coupled with the expert facilitation, made for enriching discussions and learning opportunities. I truly appreciate the efforts that the SGLN team has put into orchestrating such a fantastic platform for Singapore leaders to come together, share insights, and prepare for global leadership roles.

Devin Ong

Executive Director, DBS Bank Limited

It was an extremely memorable programme with great bonds forged. The workshops expanded my paradigms as they challenged and reversed many mental models I had. My mentor went one step further and inspired me to develop new approaches that have had profound impacts on my leadership and professional development.

Malminderjit Singh

Chief Operating Officer & Regional Director (APAC),
Speyside Group

In my opinion, the time spent networking with the other SGLN Fellows was crucial. Especially because we can always find time to learn concepts and models from distinguished trainers and speakers, but great peers in the form of the SGLN Fellows don’t come by easily, and hence the time we spend sharing and learning from each other every day was priceless.

ST Logistics Pte Ltd

It has been an amazing journey where I got to meet new people and discover new perspectives. It’s also a great opportunity to network!

Tan Eng Hwa

Director, Business Planning, SMRT Corporation Ltd.

The SGLN Fellowship modules were great, and they were led by great speakers. The examples and case studies used were relevant and practical. SGLN is definitely making a positive impact.
