With a long-standing legacy of success, the journey of reinvention at SAS continues to be deliberate and challenging. Singapore American School continues to reinvent itself to ensure that students are engaged, learn at high levels, and are future ready.
This session will unpack the documentary film even further and give participants step-by-step insight into SAS’ journey. Tim will share the ever-evolving change strategy, along with insights into what worked, and what hasn’t.
