Will be amazing if a government funded body in Singapore could deliver "leadership and insights". Their abilities as management strategist and operational management operating outside of their own economy have not been encouraging. History has been a never ending saga of bad decisions and cultural disasters. Maybe it is Singapore companies that need this resource?
