As the world continues to evolve rapidly, the need for educational strategies that prepare students for future global business environments becomes more critical. Central to fostering essential twenty-first-century skills is the educational philosophy of transferring knowledge across diverse contexts. This shift requires moving beyond traditional content delivery towards active learning approaches that emphasize real-world application, interdisciplinary thinking, and reflection.

​

With Asia poised to drive a significant portion of global economic growth—potentially contributing 60% of the world's growth by 2030, according to the Asian Development Bank—the region's corporate and higher education sectors are becoming increasingly influential and competitive. To thrive in this dynamic landscape, Asian companies must develop innovative skills and adapt to ever-changing environments.

​

Educational institutions play an important role in this transformation. How can they design curricula that not only impart critical twenty-first-century skills but also foster industry collaboration and interdisciplinary learning? What strategies can be employed to ensure that education remains relevant, dynamic, and integrated with the needs of global business?
