What is E.L.I.T.E.?

The Experiential Leadership & Innovation Training Ecosystem (ELITE) is a hands-on training program that helps people become better leaders and innovators.

 

Now in its second year of offering game-based learning workshops, ELITE continues to use strategy board games as learning tools, combined with reflection methods from the Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm (IPP), to turn experiences into meaningful lessons.

 

In simple terms, ELITE helps participants grow by:

  • Learning through interactive game-based simulations

  • Practicing and improving through repeated play

  • Reflecting on experiences to gain deeper insights

  • Connecting lessons to real-world leadership situations

  • Gradually handling more complex challenges over time

​​

Each workshop follows:
Context → Experience → Reflection → Conceptualization → Reapplication → Action​

This year, ELITE will be part of the All aBoard EXPO 2026, the biggest board game convention in Southeast Asia, happening on May 28–31, 2026, at the Quezon City M.I.C.E. Center.​​
