Advancing Women's Leadership
Women have always been the primary supporting force of the family, society and even the nation. Undaunted by the myriad of responsibilities, women have continued to forge forth, demonstrating their strengths and abilities as they strive towards meeting their aspirations.
In order to assist in their professional endeavours, the HKFYG Leadership Institute is co-organizing Hang Lung Future Women Leaders Program with Hang Lung Properties. This brand-new community investment project will be launched between Hong Kong and the Mainland to facilitate women's development and to further promote diversity and inclusion, for the well-being of the community.
In order to unleash the potential of next generation of women and prepare them to be future leaders who bring change to the world, the philosophy of the project is "Learning to Lead, Leading to Change", offering extensive opportunities for 100 female universities students who will participate in a Women's Leadership Forum, a multidimensional leadership training course, inspirational talks by elite women leaders from Hong Kong and the Mainland, as well as a six-month mentorship. They will also have to work on a community project with their mentor. Outstanding students in this program will be offered a two-month internship at Hang Lung Properties or its partnering companies.
Young female students currently undertaking a full-time program at universities in Hong Kong, especially those who have the passion to serve the community, have demonstrated good conduct and outstanding academic/extracurricular performances and are either current or former holders of leadership positions, are encouraged to take advantage of this leadership program.
We welcome young female leaders come together to learn, grow, connect and empower. Apply now or recommend to those who are the potential future leaders!
Application deadline 12 October 2022
