I would like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt appreciation for the NUS academic team, facilitator and program office support team. In particular, Professor Goh put together this fantastic program, Mr Kelvin has been facilitating the weekly group discussion to guide the teams and Ms Sobhitha Indrakanti has been managing this program in order to provide learners with a good learning experience. This program gives learners a window into the current digital transformation trend that leverages the latest technology using real-world case studies. It provided us with an up-to-date understanding of the tools to enforce digital transformation in our organizations. This learning was further reinforced through individual and group-based graded assignments

In this program, I learned how to identify and evaluate People Management and Self Development skills from the lens of people and employee behavior and interaction. I was introduced to frameworks & toolkits and got hands-on practice in applying them to real-world situations. The assignments and activities ensure a first-hand experience of the impact of the concepts being discussed and will help translate them into tangible skills focused on professional growth. Nowadays, the ability to manage and influence various people you work with lies at the heart of successful leadership. These are also the most valued skills employers look for when hiring or promoting people into leadership positions. Having the skills needed to deal with tough challenges can accelerate my career and help me create an enjoyable working environment for my teams.

This programme has been an excellent value addition to me. After completing this programme, I was able to use Design Thinking to solve one of my client’s problems, as I was successful in suggesting a digital solution to them. They were extremely impressed with the idea and asked us to move ahead.

My main motivations in taking the FLP are to affirm what I have learned about leadership, discard lessons that are no longer relevant or are already outdated, and learn new insights, tools, and practices in leadership. Going through the FLP was one of the most exciting learning journeys I have ever done. The program is arranged such that one can track progress in becoming a better version of oneself, i.e., as a person and as a leader. The lectures are concise and structured so that they give me "nourishment" rather than a deluge of concepts, ideas, and techniques. The group discussions and projects aid in the learning process, especially in the practical application of tools and concepts. The learning platform is world-class yet easy to use and navigate. As someone who performs a leadership role in our organization, I have started integrating the lessons learned in my various transactions. I gain more confidence, and I look forward to coaching our emerging leaders in the organization. The program is highly recommended for both managers and leaders who are "beginners" or "advanced" in terms of experience. This is the kind of program I should have taken when I was new to the organization. It exceeded my expectations.

I look forward to using this programme knowledge in my work life and addressing my client’s problems in a way that will help them be relevant now as well as in the future. I am glad that I decided to pursue the Digital Transformation programme at NUS Business School as this has helped me gain different technological insights to help organizations achieve their goals.

The elements I enjoyed most are the learning contents and interactive learning sessions through peer interaction. The program has helped me strategize my approach to human assets development where we have a system in the organization which identifies and promotes leaders internally. I would recommend this program to anyone who wishes to learn and take the driving seat in their career. My advice or guidelines for those considering the program; please attend the interactive peer sessions, be present, and have an open mind to learning so that you have the tools to identify your path to leadership.
