“Meet people where they are, not where you wish them to be.” - Kuik Shiao-Yin Kuik Shiao-Yin has been called “the Singaporean voice of youth.” While serving two stints as a nominated Parliamentarian, Shiao-Yin delivered clear, passionate speeches that went viral. Beyond her work in government, she has committed herself to developing the "social and emotional capital" of the young nation. Shiao-Yin co-founded The Thought Collective , a group of social businesses including the School of Thought and Common Ground , a coworking and event space. These spaces are designed to equip more Singaporeans with the social and emotional skills they need to create the cultural change * they* want to see. In this episode we discuss weaving the fabric of the young nation-state together at the grassroots and governmental level. Shiao-Yin shares her opinion that every successful community starts with leadership that has cognitive clarity and then remains vested in getting clearer and clearer.
