Senior Management Programme

“It was a pleasant one month break from the daily rigours of working life. It gave me the opportunity to recharge my fading batteries and to engage with eminent professors, professionals and participants alike. Indeed, the SMP Class of 2007 included not only Singaporeans, but also a delightful potpourri of engaging professionals and bureaucrats from as far west as the Kingdom of Bahrain, Afghanistan, Pakistan, to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Vietnam as well as closer home, Malaysia and Cambodia.”

“I have learned skills in the management of those above me and the teams in my charge; and also better manage myself after completing the Senior Management Programme. The multi-culture environment also increased my understanding for each country and culture’s differences.”

Customised Programmes

“This programme conducted by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy is by far the most practical, informative, interesting and helpful programme among various courses and programmes I have taken in many different countries.”

Ms. Nguyen Thi Thuy Dong, National Academy of Public Administration of Vietnam Executive Programme on ‘Leadership, Public Administration Reform and Service Delivery’, January 2006

“It was one of the best (executive) programmes I’ve ever attended. Using real-life case studies from the Singapore Civil Service, the speakers imparted knowledge and skills that have proven to be a great help in my own work. The Singapore success story is clear but interacting and learning from the professionals who actually implemented the policies was a great experience.”
