IntroductionThe purpose of the China Executive Leadership Development
Programme is to develop world-class leaders and foster real
economic growth and shared prosperity between China, the
BRICS countries, and the world.
The programme combines robust academic rigor with
practical networking and business development opportunities.
Participants are exposed to applied learning by using
innovative simulation techniques, master classes and sector
level market intelligence. This is coupled with exposure to
‘Giants of Industry’, focused networking opportunities and commercial matching to sector-level opportunities.
The programme is designed for leaders and executives in the private, public sector and state-owned
enterprises, or for entrepreneurs wishing to expand their businesses internationally. The programme provides a
truly global and life-changing experience, inspires and energises participants, and develops Emotional (EQ)
and Spiritual (SQ) intelligences.
Programme overviewThe programme comprises of five
days of learning, visiting leading
companies, networking and business
matchmaking, and sensory
adventures. Participants will travel
to Shanghai, the commercial
capital of China. A series of master
classes delivered by specialist experts,
and top business and government leaders will offer adult-based experiential and interactive teaching and
learning methodology. Delegates will explore concrete business development opportunities between BRICS
countries. Study tours, visits to top companies, and networking events will promote the development of
relationships and inspire trust among the programme delegates.
The programme offers a great opportunity for delegates to network locally and globally, and to develop
mutually beneficial business and influential relationships that will
endure beyond the programme completion. The programme
will also include cultural, team-building and sightseeing activities.
The primary learning focus will be in the following areas:
• Overview of the economy, history, culture and legal systems
of China
• Opportunities and challenges of doing business in China
and BRICS countries
• Purpose-driven leadership, emotional (EQ) and
spiritual (SQ) intelligences
• International management: success and failure factors
• Entrepreneurship, innovation, creativity and imagination
• Digital economy, artificial intelligence, robotics, virtual reality,
machine learning, IoT (Internet of things), and Big Data
WOW ExperienceThe ‘WOW’ experience is a truly inspirational, fun and life-changing
learning experience created by engaging cognitive, sensory,
emotional and spiritual intelligences.
Traditional executive educational programmes provide a solid theoretical foundation with some practical
exposure to organisational complexity.
The “WOW experience” pushes conventional boundaries! WOW goes beyond a traditional learning theory.
The WOW experience is about:
• Future learning by applying high-tech high-touch teaching and learning methodologies
• Learning by engaging the best
• Fun sensory experiences, which promote holistic learning and development
• Developing purpose driven, socially and environmentally conscious, global leaders

Future Learning
This unique concept focuses on ‘powering’ leaders to build on
their inherent strengths and systematically address potential
deficiencies. Our ‘Future Learning’ approach applies high-tech
high-touch teaching and learning methodologies, in international
state-of-the-art learning labs with simulations.
Engaging the Best
High performing enterprises and leaders often buck conventional
business trends and models. ‘Engaging the Best’ is an opportunity
to learn from the best! It is an opportunity to visit the most advanced companies and global leaders in specific
sectors, network at the highest levels and attend master classes.
Ambassador Gate
This first-of-its-kind initiative brings government closer to business to drive economic development. Participants
will benefit from economic policy insights, strategic growth trajectories, market intelligence, business
matchmaking, trade incentives, and interaction with local companies. ‘Ambassador Gate’ is a gateway to
business development, trade and investment in partnership with local embassies.
Sensory Adventures
Successful global leaders are those who transcend local
boundaries to experience other cultures, tastes and lifestyles.
‘Sensory Adventures’ is a customised package of adventures
and experiences aligned to our holistic development philosophy
of developing cognitive, emotional, spiritual and physical
intelligences. Sensory experiences will draw on unique offerings in
the given countries and may include an array of sightseeing,
culinary, cultural, sport, arts, and adrenaline-rush teambuilding
activities.
BRICS Business Opportunities – A Compelling Investment Case
The joint contribution of the BRICS countries to the world’s economy was 23.6% in 2017 and is expected to rise
to about 27% by 2022. In 2018 about 41% of the world’s population is from the BRICS countries.
These statistics indicate that the BRICS countries are reaching a significant demographic and economic
critical mass. There are however, significant differences in economic development and the rates on economic
convergence between the BRICS countries. A clear understanding of the market dynamics and economic
growth levers is imperative for global entrepreneurs.
The programme will empower participants to interpret available
market intelligence, meet with market leaders in the given
countries, and explore mutually beneficial commercial
opportunities and investments. Below is a high-level summary
of the competitive and comparative advantages of the
BRICS member nations.
China
China has historically promoted the manufacturing industry to drive
economic growth. This was supported by aggressive export incentive polices.
Over the past decade, China has become the world’s largest and fastest-
growing source of entrepreneurial start-ups, supported by extensive
e-commerce. The BELD programme will explore growing trends in the
Chinese economy to maximise international trade and collaboration.
India
Low-cost skilled labour, innovations in technology and low IT infrastructural
costs have fuelled the IT sector in India. The country is surging ahead in its
quest for excellence in innovation, the creation of value-based pricing
models, and by designing new technologies. India has emerged as the
fastest growing economy in the world, growing at 6.8%. The BELD programme
will expose participants to the insights and forward planning strategies of IT
captains of industry.
Brazil
An abundance of natural resources and innovative social policies have
helped lift Brazilians from poverty. While the production of oil and soya beans
has been the benchmark of the Brazilian economy, significant progress has
been made in sustainability. They are world leaders in green plastics,
renewable plantations, etc. The BELD programme will assess opportunities
within a challenging economic environment with market intelligence to
identify new growth sectors.
Russia
Russia is well-positioned for economic growth, given its high education levels
coupled with an abundance of natural resources (natural gas, oil, metals,
minerals, lumber, etc.) However, the fall in commodity prices in recent years
have has had a negative impact on the economic outlook for Russia. The
BELD programme will explore opportunities for growth within an evolving
landscape, underpinning new industries (beneficiation, software outsourcing
destination, arms and nuclear energy.)
South Africa
Natural resources have been the foundation of economic development in
South Africa. Traditional industries focusing on mining, agriculture, tourism
and financial services have flourished in South Africa. Will government’s
policies on economic growth and industrialisation drive the creation of new
industries in the ‘green sector’ and mineral beneficiation? The BELD
programme looks at emerging trends in industrial growth in SA and at the
market for foreign direct investment.
