Leaders Journal EP06: Best Boss Series (Feat. Mei Yen)

Written By Jason Ho

LISTEN NOW ON SPOTIFY!

In this fresh new episode of Leaders Journal, we introduce the Best Boss series, where Jason interviews great bosses who have left a lasting impact on their people, and find out what sets them apart.

Tune in to hear from our first Best Boss, Mei Yen (Former Head of Finance & Operations in Manulife Asset Management), as she shares heartfelt advice on what defines a great leader.

There's a famous quote that goes, "People leave managers, not companies." This couldn't be further from the truth. A great boss is hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget.

The Best Boss series hopes to inspire and challenge everyone in leadership positions, to rise above the pandemic of "bad bosses", to become the "best boss" for the people you lead.

The BEST BIT is that YOU get to nominate your Best Boss to appear on this series. If you have someone in mind, drop us an email and we'll be in touch!

(key words: leadership, leadershiptips, empowerment, feedback, authenticleadership, relationships, results, teamperformance)
