Introduction

SMU-BCA Advanced Management Programme for Leaders of the Building & Construction industry

The SMU-BCA Advanced Management Programme is a flagship programme tailored for the building & construction industry. It aims to provide participants with a broader strategic vision of the construction business environment at a time when the industry is experiencing growing complexities & increased competitiveness. Drawing on the rich experience of industry leaders, this programme is part of BCA’s Built Environment Strategic Leadership Development initiative to develop a quality workforce which would anchor and advance the building and construction industry.

It also cultivates a platform to exchange ideas and visions among diverse players from the industry. While it facilitates an understanding of the complex market & process-oriented issues that drives the industry, the programme also prepares senior executives to be dynamic leaders; building sustainable competitive advantages of individual firms along the value chain of the building industry. To further enhance each module, insights are shared by industry leader firms through industry-specific case-studies.

Designed and facilitated by the Singapore Management University (SMU), this programme aims to elevate the way leaders manage for performance excellence, business transformation and organisational growth to deliver a quality and sustainable built environment.
