Leading a dynamic team, shaping industry landscapes, acquiring international exposure. Hear what our ambassadors have to say about life at EDB.
Germaine Song, Senior Officer, Transport Engineering
Changing mindsets and building manpower capabilities certainly can't be achieved overnight. But that is precisely the challenge and fun of the job, isn't it?
The great thing is, EDB is made up of such a young, energetic bunch of people. There's always a lively exchange of ideas or a spirited discussion going on somewhere. Sometimes it feels like this is what fuels the energy of this place.
Kevin Lai, Regional Director, Global Operations (Northern Europe)
To me, leading is about managing people and not projects. It is about developing my officers to be the best that they can be. It is about harnessing the intellectual creativity and energy of the team.
Ho Weng Si, Centre Director, Global Operations (Eastern Americas, New York)
In exactly two weeks, I’ll be off to New York with my Chairman for a business trip. We finally managed to secure a meeting with the CEO of one of the world’s top 5 largest pharmaceutical companies.
