Earlier this week, the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL), a global leadership development provider, appointed a new chief client officer and managing director in the Asia-Pacific region.
Veteran business consultant and industry thought leader Dr. Thomas Goh will be leading the charge in finding ways to accelerate the leadership development and performance of clients, ranging from multi-national corporations to local companies, while also implementing an extensive research agenda.
He succeeds Dr. Roland Smith, who had led CCL’s operations in the region since 2013.
“Dr. Goh has the experience, knowledge and passion to take CCL’s already extensive reach and impact to new levels in Asia-Pacific,” CCL President and CEO John R. Ryan said. “CCL and the clients we are privileged to serve throughout this dynamic region will benefit greatly from his leadership.”
Prior to joining CCL, Dr. Goh held the position of Client Services Leader, APAC at McKinsey, including other senior leadership roles in Hay Group, Gallup, Towers Perrin and Accenture. While there, he received multiple awards for driving business growth, people matters and knowledge contributions.
A leading figure in the business consultation space, Dr. Goh has a strong track record of over 25 years, providing clients from across the world sustainable business solutions to overcome challenges through strategy, innovation, agility, leadership, transformation and capability.
Some of his former projects include helping companies build strategic and organizational agility to adapt to constant disruption; helping clients set up smart factories driven by robots, automation and big data; and helping firms future-proof by preparing new capacities and capabilities.
“Companies in Asia-Pacific need a new type of leader in a rapidly changing world,” Goh said. “We are excited to work alongside them to craft their new business narratives using CCL’s empirical research, proven solutions, and local knowledge.”
