Two memorable experiences stood out for me – one with my CEO and the other was with my Chief HR Officer. The experience with my CEO occurred during his closing address at one of my company’s leadership development programs. His simple question was “What’s next?” This simple question if reflected and acted upon earnestly, will prevent us from being complacent and drive us to conscientiously think ahead always.

The second experience was a conversation with our CHRO during this year’s HR leadership meeting. When asked what words of wisdom she could offer to guide us into 2011, she said “Always stay close and relevant to the business”, which we all knew was meant to inspire us to continue to add value and be strategic partners to the business.

If I may add, I would say, “Stay close to doing what you love, stay relevant and ahead by developing future capabilities needed to be successful in the near future”.

The Ministry of Trade & Industry (MTI) provided an overview of the Pro-Enterprise Panel (PEP) which was formed to actively solicit feedback on government rules and regulations that hinder businesses and stifle entrepreneurship. Besides cutting red tape, the PEP also champions the First Mover Framework that aims to encourage innovative business ideas on the utilisation of government assets. Businesses that qualify under the First Mover Framework can be granted an allocation and/or price advantage for the proposed use of government assets.

 

MTI also shared some of the past suggestions and First Mover proposals that have been implemented.
