Riyadh, December 29, 2024 – The Saudi Leaders Council (SLS) has officially launched the "Transformational Experience Visits" initiative, a program designed to broaden the perspectives of its members and enhance their leadership skills within a dynamic global context. The initiative is part of the council's ongoing efforts to provide enrichment journeys that offer unique opportunities for professional growth and cross-cultural exchange.
The first destination for this initiative is Beijing, China, where a delegation of 24 distinguished Saudi leaders has been participating in an intensive program since December 22. The visit is set to run until December 29, and during this time, participants have been engaged in a series of interactive sessions and workshops with industry experts, designed to deepen their knowledge of global trends, innovation, and leadership practices. These activities have been supplemented by field visits to key cultural and commercial landmarks in Beijing, providing participants with firsthand insight into China’s thriving technological and business landscapes.
The program offers a unique opportunity for the delegates to explore the latest technological innovations and global trends in various sectors, positioning them to bring new ideas and insights back to the Kingdom. Through meetings with thought leaders, policymakers, and influential decision-makers, participants are being equipped with the tools and knowledge to contribute significantly to Saudi Arabia's strategic objectives, particularly in support of the ambitious Saudi Vision 2030.
SLS, an initiative of the Mohammed bin Salman Foundation (Misk), includes over 880 leaders, all of whom are graduates of the "Leaders 2030" and "Misk Fellowship" programs. These programs have been instrumental in shaping a community of influential leaders who are committed to supporting the Kingdom's development goals and bolstering its regional and international standing. Through the "Transformational Experience Visits," SLS aims to further enhance its members' leadership capabilities and foster a deeper understanding of the global landscape, ensuring they are well-prepared to drive the Kingdom's future success.
