The lecture was structured around three key dimensions: the significance and function of time-space thinking, its types and methods, and enhancing strategies and approaches.

Professor Chen emphasized that in this new era of globalization and digitalization, leaders must be equipped with strategic thinking across both time and space to seize opportunities amid complex changes.

Doctoral students in attendance noted that the integration of historical and contemporary interpretations transformed abstract philosophical concepts into practical leadership tools.

Moving forward, CityU will continue to invite renowned scholars from home and abroad to build high-level academic exchange platforms, contributing to the cultivation of future leaders.
