Most people don't have a short attention span. They have a low threshold for boredom. Netflix asks "are you still watching?" and you always say yes when the story's good. The same thing happens in a boardroom, on a stage, in a pitch meeting. People don't tune out because they can't focus. They tune out because you gave them a reason to. So what makes some speakers impossible to look away from,…
Marie Claire Lim Moore has built one of the most remarkable careers in corporate Asia. CEO of TransUnion Asia Pacific. Author of two books. TEDx speaker. Mother of three. A Filipina immigrant who climbed to the top of one of the world's leading data and analytics companies without ever pretending to be someone she wasn't. But this conversation isn't about the résumé. It's about what the résumé…

I grew up shy, introverted, and terrified of public speaking. A bookworm in Hong Kong. A wallflower who couldn’t hold a room. A kid who went into investment banking because that’s where smart people were supposed to go, not because it was right for me. So I walked away. Professional football. BBC radio. The Premier League. A microphone. A stage. And somewhere along the way, the worst public…
Philipp Knuepfer spent 21 years mastering luxury hospitality at one of the world's most iconic hotel groups. General Manager in Boston. Area Vice President across Singapore, Taiwan, Vietnam, and the Philippines. A career built on white-glove service, five-star standards, and the kind of brand loyalty that takes decades to earn. Then he walked away from all of it. Not because it wasn't working. But…
Louisa Robb grew up in a chaotic and creative household. A dreamer father who never quite landed his visions. A mother pioneering her way through the Australian film and television industry. Dinner parties with actors. No financial safety net. No predictable path. So she built one. Economics degree. Hong Kong. Zurich. UBS. Managing Director. Global COO overseeing thousands of people. She fit the…
Nick Day was driving his car half a mile from home. On his way to pick up his daughter. Half a second later, everything changed and his whole life turned upside down. The person who showed up after the accident was someone he didn't recognise. Nick, an extrovert with a theatre degree. Loud. Social. Full of life. He closed the curtains and didn't leave his house for months. He told himself it was…
I had the opportunity to sit down with Rasheed Shroff from 'Entrepreneur Stories' for a conversation about authentic communication and the leadership edge it creates. Recorded in front of a live audience, we explored the experiences that shaped my thinking, from investment banking to professional sport, entrepreneurship to podcasting, and how each environment forced me to refine how I show up…
Andrew Li grew up feeling like an outsider. At 12 years old, he was sent to boarding school. Far from home. Far from family. Feeling like a fish out of water. After graduation, reality hit fast. He couldn’t even land entry-level hotel jobs. Not leadership roles. Basic ones. Eventually, someone gave him a chance. So he started at the bottom. Making beds. Cleaning rooms. Doing the jobs nobody talks…
