In this episode of Be In Front, a special series in partnership with KPMG in Singapore, we explore how people are the true differentiator for businesses navigating change.

Shelley Chan, Partner of People, Performance and Culture at KPMG in Singapore, shares her journey from Edinburgh to Singapore, and how saying “yes” to opportunities shaped her global perspective. She discusses what agility looks like in practice, how to balance breadth with depth in talent development, and why putting people at the centre of transformation is key to building resilient, future-ready organisations. From global mobility to purpose-driven growth, Shelley unpacks how businesses can nurture talent that not only adapts to disruption but also helps lead the way.
