LTCET 2023 JANUARY | THE BATCH OF REAL IMPACT YOUNG LEADERS IN SINGAPORE

The journey that made us realize adventure was the best way to learn 

The Lead The Change 2023 Exchange Trip (Batch 5) has come to an end, with the Graduation Day of 24 young talents at the National University of Singapore (NUS) on January 9.

Our team landed at Changi Airport on a sunny afternoon, with the smiles and excitement of 30 people waiting a long time to explore this modern and wonderfully developed country.

Singapore welcomed us with 7 days with nearly 30 practical, interesting, and also intensive training activities. The program helps our talents understand further Leadership, Entrepreneurship, and Teamwork skills in a multicultural environment. Moreover, talents had the chance to study new methods of education such as Open and innovative thinking, Reflective thinking debate, problem-solving skills, etc. Above all; the program successfully created deep connections between 30 youths, which are “firsts” with a series of interesting overseas experiences, surely created a memorable event that influenced the talents during this trip.

We – as the program organizers – would like to express our sincere appreciation to our partners, including organizations and enterprises: National University of Singapore, NUS Enterprise, SC Ventures by Standard Chartered, Google APAC, Block 71, Skilio, OMRON APAC, Republic Polytechnic, NEWater Visitor Center, and Sanofi-Aventis, etc. for your enthusiastic support and valuable time with Lead The Change and the 30 talents, contributing to the success of this program. 

And now, let’s go through some highlighted activities during the seven days of the Lead The Change Exchange Trip this January with outstanding activities!

Visit and learn about Entrepreneurship and the startup ecosystem at BLOCK 71, Startup Skilio Office.

Visit the world’s leading technology companies: Google APAC, OMRON APAC, Sanofi – Aventis.

Visit and learn from Singapore students and the education system at Republic Polytechnic, National University of Singapore.

Besides learning about skills and thinking at organizations, talents also had the chance to discover Singapore’s culture and history through visiting landmarks such as Singapore City Gallery, Food Court, NEWater Visitor Center, Merlion Park, East Coast Beach, Fort Canning, Gardens by the Bay, etc.

They have stepped out of their comfort zones and are preparing for the future.

The trip is not just about traveling; every day at nine o’clock, the members gather together to sum up the day’s lessons, share feelings and connect. With each day that passed, the members seemed to have matured in terms of love and knowledge.

Ms Hong Nhung – Growth Marketing Manager of ELSA SPEAK, shared: “This is not my first time coming to Singapore, but I have been approached with a learner’s perspective and welcomed at leading businesses such as Google, OMROM, Sanofi-Aventis, NUS University… to listen to their stories, and business vision is not an easy opportunity. Thank you, Lead The Change, for giving me this opportunity. I believe that the lesson after the trip will continue to follow each member along the way to develop themselves, establish a career, and become leaders with heart and talent. Not only focusing on success but also being successful, creating more open-minded and friendly working environments for young people. Meetings at the trip with mentors (instructors) and peers at NUS may also open up new opportunities for the talents themselves.”

Hopefully, in the coming 2023, Lead The Change can create more chances for the youths and support more young Vietnamese to grow in developed countries like we always dream of.
