CUHK EMBA new cohort embarks on transformative journey at Residence Week
Successfully concluded in late August, the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) Business School EMBA Residence Week brought together 40 exceptional executives from this year’s new cohort. The flagship programme provided an extraordinary leadership experience for the participants to kick-start their transformative journey.
The Residence Week commenced with a welcome cocktail and dinner, connecting the new cohort with close to 100 EMBA alumni, current students and faculty members. The evening was filled with vibrant exchange of experiences and aspirations for their forthcoming EMBA journey.
Throughout the week, the new cohort was immersed in a series of intensive training programmes designed to help participants explore their personality traits, reimagine the role of corporations and business leaders in an evolving global landscape, and foster camaraderie among the new cohort. One of the highlights was the TechMark Business Simulation Programme, a signature commercial simulation that allowed participants to apply theoretical knowledge in practical business scenarios.
The Residence Week concluded with a class photo session, remarking the transformation of the cohort from newly-met into a closely bonded community. Participants left not only with insights into effective leadership and strategic capabilities but also the impetus to elevate their leadership to thrive in the dynamic business landscape over the next two years.
