About

Leadership matters.

The Asia Foundation has long invested in the human capital needed for Asian societies to develop and flourish, and works to identify, equip and develop leaders of consequence—from emerging, next generation development and policy leaders in Asia, to highly accomplished leaders who seek to do more.

Tackling critical Asian development challenges rests not only on solid ideas and strategies, but on people. The most innovative and game-changing ideas will always fall flat if subjected to poor leadership. 

LeadEx is The Asia Foundation’s unit dedicated to leadership and exchange programs.
