Building for Vietnam’s Next Decade
Equip your managers/directors to create clarity, cohesion, and execution strength when the rules keep changing.
October 29, 2025 | 8:30 AM – 5:30 PM
Ho Chi Minh City
Vietnam’s next decade will be defined by transition—regulatory reforms, leadership succession, and AI reshaping how organizations operate. Uncertainty is now the operating condition. Most managers were trained for stability, not volatility. This program is a one-day reset for how leadership actually works in turbulent environments.
Strategy fails when teams lose alignment.
Managers must make decisions with incomplete information.
Founders are handing the baton to a younger leadership cohort.
What You’ll Learn
Lead Through Ambiguity – set direction when data is incomplete.
Spot Early Drift – detect misalignment before performance breaks.
Build Collective Clarity – turn diverse perspectives into better decisions.
Replace Control with Trust – manage by clarity, not micromanagement.
Sustain Performance Through Change – keep morale and execution steady.
