E316: Mobilizing Private Capital: ADB's Playbook for Green Growth in ASEAN
Q: What is the ASEAN Power Grid and what is ADB's role in it?

E316: Mobilizing Private Capital: ADB's Playbook for Green Growth in ASEAN
Q: So tell me a bit more what you're doing within ADB right now then.
The discussion describes joining a regional private sector head role, coordinating sovereign and non-sovereign financing to mobilize private investment for public goods, and tailoring products to client needs, including policy actions and private sector investments in areas like telecommunications-enabled towers and green mobility.
E320: Climate Finance Beyond the Buzzwords
Q: What are the different climate funds available for a project and how do they function?
The main funds include the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the Green Climate Fund (GCF), and the Climate Investment Funds (CIF), with GEF and CIF providing long-standing support and GCF playing a larger role in recent years; in practice, most funding supports both mitigation and adaptation, and successful projects should integrate sustainable elements across sectors.
E322: Why You Must Never Cross Your Own Line | Raju Mandhyan
Q: How does AI factor into your views on authenticity and influence?
AI amplifies how we process information and tells us that authentic influence will increasingly depend on our ability to stay true to our values while navigating new tools; technology should serve humanity, not override ethical boundaries.
E322: Why You Must Never Cross Your Own Line | Raju Mandhyan
Q: What role does storytelling play in leadership and influence?
Storytelling engages the human brain on multiple levels, helping people remember lessons and apply them. A good story creates a full, memorable context that data alone cannot provide, making leadership lessons stick.
