Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S1E262: Navigate job market caution; secure higher salary bumps
Q: What are the top contract terms people should scrutinize before signing?
Termination terms, notice periods, how payments (bonuses, sign-ons, equity) are affected on termination, and the specifics of non-compete or non-solicit clauses should be clearly understood and negotiated.
S1E262: Navigate job market caution; secure higher salary bumps
Q: How should someone think about the trade-off between a higher pay bump and job security when switching roles?
A larger pay bump is appealing, but frequent switching without stability can hurt long-term career progression and perceived commitment, especially toward senior roles.
S1E262: Navigate job market caution; secure higher salary bumps
Q: What is the current market reality for someone considering a job switch in Singapore?

S1E1: AI ready: How Singapore SMEs are turning anxiety into advantage
Q: What does baseline readiness look like and how does the AI Ready survey help SMEs?

Q: Eileen, why is AI adoption an immediate necessity for SMEs in ASEAN?
