2020 Keynote
Keynote: Preparing for global work in the new COVID-19 reality
COVID-19 has dramatically disrupted the way we work all around the world. As we consider the road-map out of the pandemic, some work activities will go back to the way they were. But there will be permanent changes which will alter the way we think about and behave at work forever.
In this session, Lee Yun-Yan will challenge you to rethink the traditional boundaries of business and work in the face of global challenges. Explore how we can embrace the possibilities and opportunities emerging from it.
