Conduct evidence-based research to stay updated on trends in geriatrics, active aging, and wellness to refresh current offerings. Develop programme training manuals and coaching frameworks to ensure consistency across the team. 3. Business Partnerships: Build and maintain collaborative relationships with external stakeholders, including community partners, healthcare providers, and government agencies (e.g., SportsSG, AIC). Proactively identify opportunities for new programme collaborations and community outreach initiatives. Lead in coordinating wellness events, workshops, and roadshows to increase brand visibility and service enrolment. Contribute to business development initiatives aimed at scaling the service’s reach and impact. 4.
