Make Your People Hungry but Not Angry

They say that Singapore employees are no longer hungry.  Many lament these employees lack drive, want more pay with less work, and become very selective in selecting which jobs to take up.  Many also do not take up skills training, and often resign without a job as they can rely on their past savings.

But if you talk to any Singapore employees they will tell you that they are not 'not driven' or hungry.  In fact they claimed that many employers fail to provide the right environment for employees to be hungry or driven.  If you look at employers like Facebook, Google, Samsung or Apple, they have created very good environment for their employees to be driven. The 4 ways these successful companies do are as follows:
  1. They offer extremely high remuneration and even higher salaries for those that out-perform.  High flyers are given rapid promotion opportunities and big performance incentives that may amount to another 1.5 years of salary
  2. If your company is unable to offer extremely high remuneration, your company can offer learning opportunities that even best universities cannot match.   Such learning experiences are often the acceptance of failures and the investment in ventures
  3. If the above is also not possible for your company, offer Family Ties that make people feel like they're working for their own families.  McDonalds' is famous for this: they treat their employees like their family members and in turn get very committed and loyal employees that would die for them
  4. Hope for A Better Tomorrow.  Like Asia Television Ltd (ATV) of Hong Kong, they are always 2 months late in their salary payments and yet 90% of the employees choose to stay on.  This is because ATV offers them lots of hope: their company is looking for a 'white knight' that would rejuvenate the entire company.
  5. Send them for Training.  Courses like How to be Driven, High Value Employees, High Contribution Employees, Effective Team Members and How to Be an Effective Employee.  (Click www.asiatrainers.com for details) When your employees attend such training, they learn not just the ways to contribute more, but also get a wake-up call from the trainer.  Such 'wacking' done in an entertaining manner will indeed make your people hungry and yet not angry.

Yes, they say Singaporeans are not hungry and that is why they lost jobs to the foreigners. The truth is that Singaporeans are hard-working, but not as driven as compared to our neighbours. Many do not take much initiative and always wait for things to happen. They also dare not take risk and consider job security more important than doing a good job. On top of that, they want good pay and desire to go home punctually. No wonder many employers prefer to hire foreigners!

What an Executive Coach and Business Coach Does

The Secret Under the Mattress: Why would a 79-year Man Bet So Big on 4D?

It was 2007 when we discovered his secret. While moving my father’s mattress, we found them: heaps and heaps of Singapore Pools 4D tickets. They were stacked in layers, a paper trail of lost hopes. What shocked us most wasn’t just the volume, but the stakes. He wasn’t betting a few dollars for fun. He was punting hundreds of dollars per draw—nearly ten times a month. At the time, my siblings and I were furious. Our father was a 79-year-old retiree. We wondered, with a mix of anger and confusion, why a man at his stage of life would need to win such "big money." What was he going to do with the money? We saw it as a reckless habit, a sign of poor judgment in his final years.  Some of us would say, "If I were to give him money to buy 4D, why don't I use the money and buy 4D myself?  At least I have better discipline".  It has taken me two decades, and the experience of raising my own three grown-up children, to finally see the truth that was hidden under that matt...

Head Bleeding when the Chair Falls

The Weight of Silence: What Were We Really Arguing About? My earliest memories are punctuated by the sound of shouting. In 1970, when I was barely 6 years old, I stood as a small witness to the fierce quarrels between my father and my late eldest brother Kah Yang (he passed away in 1971 at the age of 17). As I grew up, these contradictions became the soundtrack of our lives, usually centered around our family's shoe shop and clothing stalls in Chinatown. In the court of family opinion, the verdict was almost always the same: my father was "wrong." He was judged as a man who didn't fulfill his role, who wasn't "burdening" enough for the family’s success. But as I look back from the vantage point of 2026, I have to ask: Was that actually true? Let me finally put to rest what my father did right: the truths that were buried under decades of criticism: Unseen Labor: He worked grueling, long hours. I remember him hauling boxes of goods and equipment to set u...
