Conscious CEO

Why Conscious CEO?

Conscious CEO is intended for entrepreneurs and business leaders who may have the passion to pursue a social mission but have difficulties in scaling up their business operations and revenues as well as in attracting or managing investors. The 6-month program takes you through disruptive and practical insights on:

  • Conscious Leadership
  • Understanding Your Business and Mission
  • Financial Analysis
  • Strategic Planning with Impact
  • Putting Numbers to Strategy
  • Investor Presentation

The program draws expertise from an international pool of mentors who are industry leaders in business and management, impact investment, and social development.

Who are Conscious CEOs?

We are looking for both experienced and budding entrepreneurs, with or without MBAs. The SME should be inoperation for a minimum of two years with established proof of concept and audited financial statements. More importantly, we are looking for CEOs who are willing to learn principles beyond conventional business and development practices.
