S1E1: Workers aren't loyal anymore, why train them?
Manage episode 441450766 series 2318075
How can Singapore business leaders become special?
Synopsis: The Straits Times speaks with the new dean of Insead Asia Campus, Professor Sameer Hasija, on executive education and Singapore business leaders.
The new dean of Insead Asia recounts the following meme in an era where workers do not stay put in one organisation for long anymore.
The chief financial officer asks: "Should we be investing in training our people? What if they leave?"
The chief executive answers: "Imagine we don't invest in them and they stay."
In this exclusive, Prof Hasija tells host Krist Boo how going to a business school differs from going to a career coach. He points out why businesses should invest in workers and why business leaders must throw out the 'elitist' in themselves, in today's multi-generational and fragmented workplaces.
He also talks about Singapore's strategy to put more Singaporeans into global leadership positions. Do Singaporeans lack ambition?
Highlights (click/tap):
2:05 What does executive education do for me?
7:46 Why pay for employee development when they don't stay?
9:17 Why are there so few Singaporean global business leaders?
11:47 Do Singaporeans lack ambition, or is it cultural? Are there 'invisible ceilings' in global companies?
16:35 Has performative leadership overtaken values and integrity?
19:02 What could make Singapore's business leaders special in today's polarised world?
