event Singapore Luncheon- Scaling Up and Hire Smart

Scaling a business and hiring across borders present several challenges for SMEs and entrepreneurs. One of the primary issues is the current talent and skill shortage. A significant 40% of SME leaders identify this as a major barrier to growth, with 51% indicating that hiring challenges severely impact their ability to operate at full capacity.

SMEs also face unique difficulties in maintaining company culture and productivity with a remote workforce. A third of businesses experienced worker shortages in 2023, and this trend is expected to continue. Remote work arrangements, while beneficial for attracting talent, pose challenges in fostering a cohesive team culture and ensuring effective communication across different locations.

However, remote work can be advantageous, especially for women leaders. Studies show that women tend to excel in leadership roles that require high levels of communication, empathy, and collaboration—qualities that are crucial for managing remote teams. Women leaders often foster inclusive environments and are adept at maintaining team morale and engagement, even from a distance. This ability to lead with empathy and flexibility makes women particularly well-suited for remote leadership roles, helping to create a supportive and productive remote work culture.

Overall, while scaling and hiring across borders are challenging, leveraging remote work and focusing on inclusive, empathetic leadership can help SMEs overcome these hurdles. With our partner GoGlobal, We are back in Singapore for another luncheon to gather like-minded women founders to discuss about how we can:
