Mobility to shape women leaders

ONE of the themes in the report published by the Committee on the Future Economy is to establish Singapore as a platform where talent and ideas create opportunities.

While Singapore has earned a reputation as an open economy that welcomes the contributions of global players to the dynamism of our local business ecosystem, it is noted that the cities that will enjoy high-quality growth and way of life will be those that welcome new ideas and embrace diversity.

But, does Singapore (or our organisations of the future) have robust mobility strategies, which will ensure efficient movement of diverse human capital (female resources) across functions, geographical locations, skills, sectors and businesses? Can Singapore attract a gender-diverse workforce from the region or from more developed markets?
