Had a candid and lively dialogue at the Deloitte World Meeting yesterday, attended by 500 Deloitte senior leaders. They last came to Singapore in 2006, when Mr Lee Kuan Yew spoke to them.
We discussed global and regional trends, globalisation and protectionism, the importance of strong but constructive unions, how Singapore’s multiculturalism was key to our development, leadership renewal, and the problem of “key man risk”.
There is no constant but change in the world, and so we need continuous renewal. It’s not just having the best team, but also bringing in members from new generations to add their ideas. Singapore must do this so that we can take on long-term problems with thoughtful planning, and not kick the can down the road. This is how we deal with issues like climate change, when we have some time to plan and execute our responses. We must not make our grandchildren ashamed one day of what we didn’t do. – LHL
