New York. Asean plays a vital role in spurring economic growth and innovation across several industries both in Southeast Asia and globally. 

To develop and inspire today's global leaders, NYU Stern Executive Education will host regional management consulting firm SRW&Co.'s Asean Global Leadership Program from April 13 to April 17 next year.

NYU Stern School of Business also hosted SRW&Co.'s Asean Global Leadership Program in 2018, bringing the event to New York City for the first time.

Since 2009, the program has been held annually at several top business schools in the United Kingdom, China and the United States. 

Designed for corporate and public sector executives from a wide range of Asean organizations and across industries, the weeklong program will explore four key themes: globalization, innovation, analytics and leadership. 

"Once again, in collaboration with the SRW&Co. team, we're delighted to host a group of esteemed senior executives from Southeast Asia in April 2020," Raghu Sundaram, the dean of NYU Stern, said.

"The Stern School has a rich legacy of transformation, harnessing the dreams and energy of New York City and the world beyond, to open new horizons, create new networks and spark new ideas. We look forward to a week full of thoughtful discussion and a lively exchange of ideas with the participants and our faculty," Raghu said. 

"NYU Stern's Executive Education programs are committed to the belief that a global mindset is a necessity for today's senior business leaders, who are faced with the challenges of promoting growth and driving innovation while being mindful of the bottom line," Robert Salomon, the vice dean of executive programs at NYU Stern, said. 

"We are honored to continue to collaborate with SRW&Co. and to welcome AGLP participants to our campus," he said.

"Our program's key themes and combination of hands-on exercises, dialogue led by some of our most notable faculty and experiential learning components will empower participants to navigate today's rapidly changing business landscape," Naomi Diamant, program director and assistant dean of executive programs at NYU Stern, said. 

"Senior executives will emerge with practical takeaways they can immediately implement in their firms," she said.

"After the successful launch of our first edition of the AGLP in collaboration with NYU Stern in 2018, we received positive feedback from the participants as well as requests to develop a second edition of the program. Drawing on this experience as well as our experience developing some 20 editions of our flagship AGLP program, we have put together a thoughtful and impactful weeklong agenda for the participants in close collaboration with Stern faculty," Daniel Wong, chairman and partner of SRW&Co., said.
