About CGL

What We Do

The Centre for Governance and Leadership at the Civil Service College aims to catalyse thinking on leadership in key areas of public policy, governance and public administration in Singapore, by generating new insights for policymakers, and enhancing the quality of policy thinking, leadership and management in the Public Service.

As a node for research on strategic policy issues, we connect thought leaders and subject specialists with policymakers in the public sector, to foster critical thinking and debate. Our work includes codifying and articulating Singapore’s public governance approaches, through a range of research pieces, articles, publications as well as lectures, symposia and roundtables by local and visiting fellows, researchers and invited speakers.
