Last Saturday we had our Volunteer Kick-off, which Annica has been working on together with her team. During the day we did team bonding exercises with Ethen Ong from Positive Intentions, fantastic guy! Full of energy and did really well in engaging everyone there, which was around 110-120 people. He got us all very caught up in trying to save an egg from breaking when throwing it against a wall.
We also had two speakers who came to our Kick-off event. Entrepreneurial speaker Gerald Tock from Kommunity Venture was there to talk about his journey from working in the Government, to become an entrepreneur to a VC. He shared with us some of what he learnt from being in all these three sectors, which was really inspiring.
Our second speaker was Nemo Ashong from Empjoyment, who was there to share with us about exceptional service. This he did through an interesting way, by not telling us what he felt is good service, but by getting everyone to explore their own memories and develop their thoughts about service from that aspect.
Of course we also shared more details about the actual D-day with our volunteers and Anna Ratala, Head of Slush Singapore, had an inspirational talk about Sluh. Overall it was a great day, and people seemed to enjoy the program, which made (especially Annica) very happy. This day was a good start to Slush Singapore 2018. Bring it on SLUSH SINGAPORE 2018, we’re ready for you!
