We have learned from different experiences. I hope to digest all the experiences I went through and want to implement some of those, if not all. |
| - | I was someone who was not interested in leading. The word leadership was too big for me. Out of challenging myself, I attended leadership class at my university. Everything was about theory and quite boring. I can’t blame it because it is not for skill nor mindset, it was all about grades and assignment. So, I tried again and joined this program. Here, I learned more about the real-world leadership. Throughout the program, I reflected myself a lot. This program is such a gold. I also had a great chance to socialize, to make new friends |
Students from Africa
| - | The program is an eye opening and full of lessons. The program really assisted and equipped me with the skill that we needed as a leader. In addition, from the lectures conducted, I learnt that we can develop our economies if we implement the trajectory which Korea has taken. All the more so, there are some practical evidences which we can copy from the Korean economy where it transformed from the agrarian economy to become the world leader in technology. The program helped me to have a total mindset chip so as to develop. |

One key element I learnt through the program was that the key to any successful plan is implementation and leadership plays a great deal in ensuring the implementation of programs. |
