SINGAPORE — TransformAsians, a series of candid conversations with Asia’s changemakers, showcases fascinating insights and hard-won lessons from thought leaders who are driving positive change within their communities and industries across the region. Covering topics as diverse as creativity, education, female empowerment, sustainability, global expansion, and wealth creation, each episode of TransformAsians digs deep to uncover what it really takes to make change happen and the different roles that people and technology play in this process.
Hosted by Construct Digital‘s own changemakers, Charanjit Singh and Richard Bleasdale, TransformAsians celebrates the innovative spirit that drives change, disruption, and human connections across Asia. The series is targeted at business leaders who spend every day in the transformation trenches. Each episode is packed with real insights and learnings on how to lead and manage change successfully.
“One of the biggest challenges with change is people. What it takes for people to buy into change and what it takes for people to lead and champion change. So I’ll be digging for insights on what drives their desire to make change happen, and what they do to take people on the change journey with them,” said Richard Bleasdale, CEO of Construct Digital.
