1. What makes your job interesting and exciting? Bernard Gideon Lim, Penang
TalentCorp is a startup formed in January this year. That in itself is exciting. What makes it more exciting is the scope for TalentCorp to address talent needs for the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP). It is a new challenge for the country. There is no tried and tested method. It's like the Star Trek catchphrase, “To boldly go where no man has gone before”. It has been and promises to continue to be an interesting and exciting journey. It is particularly engaging as the issue of talent is probably one of the most important enablers of the future success of Malaysia. Further, Malaysians are passionate about talent. Over the past eight months, my team and I have met and worked with a lot of inspiring individuals who have continued to support and encourage our work.
