The CES-TLC is a thematic and scholarly forum showcasing exemplary, pioneering and influential citizen-leaders from the Philippines and other nations who have excelled and made meaningful, valuable and enduring contributions in various disciplines and brought honor and pride to their chosen fields and countries.

This program immerses executives in “hands-on”, “face-to-face” and “life-based” learning encounters with these champions, exemplars and luminaries who distill their ideas, insights and lessons; impart their wisdom and inspiration; and share their visions and stories of struggle, discovery and hope.

It is planned and regularly conducted by CESB in cooperation with its partner institutions/ sectors as a whole-day annual symposium/ conference in Metro-Manila and in different regional capitals nationwide.
