FEEL is more than a leadership programme — it’s a long-term investment in shaping future-ready mindsets. With this initiative, we are building both national and global capacity, preparing a new generation of leaders to navigate uncertainty, anticipate change, and act with purpose. Successful leadership is no longer about forecasting the future — it’s about experiencing it, and actively experimenting with it, firsthand.
