‘Lunch with Aunty’ is a podcast in which I interview people in a variety of fields each successful in their own way and really ask the questions ‘what do you do?’ and ‘how did you get there?’ Whenever I am back in Singapore my mum always says that I have to meet with Aunty so and so or Uncle so and so to figure out and understand what they do. I have been lucky enough to be surrounded by brilliant, successful people throughout my childhood, but I always found it easy to just know, ‘she’s in oil’ or ‘she’s a banker’, rather than ask actual questions to these exceptional people. I am now, as a seventeen-year-old, getting to the stage where I need to decide what my first career is going to be, and I thought a good place to start is figuring out what the people around me actually do and I thought why not make these lunches educational not just for myself but for others.

Welcome back to Season 2 of Lunch with Aunty!
In todays episode, I sit down with Harjit Gill -- who is an INCREDIBLE woman! She was the CEO of Philips ASEAN & Pacific managing a team of 10,000 people in 10 countries (in the three business sectors of Healthcare, Lighting and Consumer Lifestyle). Now she sits on many boards focusing on similar industries and is a true leader in all three spaces. She is incredibly passionate about sustainable innovation, especially in the Asia region, and a lot of her recent pursuits focus on that.
I LOVED talking to her! I hope you all enjoy the interview as much as I did!
