The Aspen China Fellowship Program energizes private sector business leaders of the Greater China region to step up to the greatest challenges in the region in today’s global context. Each Fellow has been selected because they have achieved real success in their careers and, yet, are at a point in their lives where they’d like to have a broader impact. The program is designed to guide them through a personal journey of reflection, insight and action in an area where they’d like to make that impact. As such, they will become more effective, enlightened leaders and will move “from success to significance.” The Aspen China Fellowship Program is completely non-political in nature. This program is made possible thanks to a generous gift from David M. Rubenstein through the Rubenstein Leadership Fund.
