Travel management company FCM has teamed up with NUS Business School Executive Education to deliver the Asia High Potential Programme, a scheme designed to provide a customised leadership development programme for people with high potential in FCM.

More than 20 FCM candidates – from China, Singapore, and India – have been selected for the course, which spans over 18 months.

The programme will provide formal face-to-face training once a quarter with FCM supporting participants through the internal application of training in real-life and business situations, 360-degree feedback from managers, peers, and direct reports, as well as mentorship from leaders within the business.

These employees will benefit from the leadership of Prem N Shamdasani as the programme director. He is the associate professor of marketing; academic director, The NUS Executive MBA; director, Stanford-NUS International Management Programme; and director, NUS Marketing Strategy In A Digital World Programme, at the NUS Business School.

“Brightness of future and providing our people with the best possible chance to grow hand-in-hand with us, while opening doors to future leadership possibilities, is something that has been ingrained in our business from day one,” said Bertrand Saillet, managing director Asia, FCM.

“The main aim is to develop leaders from within our business – with a focus on local talent. People want a career in travel again and we look forward to working closely with all our candidates as we aim to develop our future business leaders for FCM in Asia.”
