There is a leader
in all of us.
In Leaderonomics, we strive to solve society’s problems through Leadership Development. We believe that everyone can positively and significantly make a difference in their community and organisation.
Why leadership?
Our Story
“Almost ten years before we set up Leaderonomics, I had a burning question that plagued me – why did certain communities thrive whilst others languished in poverty and despair? I decided to explore the question with a series of experiments that resulted in a profound insight: everything rises and falls on leadership.
It was easy to go into a poor community and give them funds and help them with the issues they faced today. But that would be temporary relief. What these communities needed were leaders who could help them transform themselves.
. My experiments also highlighted that leadership is not genetic but a learnt process, and that it usually begins during a person’s childhood and school years. So how could we go into the most rural of places in the developing world and provide experiential leadership development? Hui Ming and I, together with a few others knew we had to dedicate our lives to this vision.
We knew if we helped grow one person into a leader, he or she would then be able to build up their community and if we kept repeating this over and over, nations would be transformed.
And thus the vision of Leaderonomics began”

One issue,
One sustainable solution.
How?
“When Roshan shared his insights on how critical leadership education was and how scarce it was in the developing world, we knew that this was a calling worth devoting lives to. We are called to leave a legacy in this world, and what could be more important than enabling people to fulfil their potential? Many social enterprises give shoes, funding or food to the poor but those never solve the root issues. Our vision at Leaderonomics was about getting to the heart of the problem.
Of course, there were obstacles in the way. How could we afford to bring this education to the masses, especially the underprivileged? We knew we did not want to set up an NGO but rather a model of leadership which could be replicated in all developing countries.
And so we set up Leaderonomics, a social enterprise offering learning and corporate services to businesses all over the world, where all our talents and skills could be fully utilised and monetised. The funds generated from these services would be directly invested into community programmes for youth and university students, and to help NGO and community leaders.
Today, this vision remains the heartbeat of Leaderonomics – providing leadership development to all, especially youths and children who cannot afford it,. In fact, the vision has become even bolder. Leaderonomics has now grown into a global organisation, staying true to our calling but investing heavily in R&D in leadership development. Our research is now the cornerstone of our action-learning curriculum, which explores new areas of leadership including brain research, EQ, Asian leadership and new means of leadership. We are honouredto see numerous global organisations leverage our corporate services and partner with us in our media and community work.
At Leaderonomics, we believe that everyone is a leader – whether a youth passionate about a cause, a parent leading a family, CEOs driving organisational growth, or even politicians making a difference. We are devoted to provide the best in learning and development from the formative to the highest levels of leadership to enable everyone to fulfill their potential and become the leader they were meant to be.”
