Hard work and purpose trump
talent; this advice proved true
each time I was faced with a dif-
ficult decision. COVID-19, reces-
sion and all the small decisions
in between—I put my team first
and we have built an incredi-
ble culture at Anh and Chi and
Good Thief.

HEART AND THE REST

MARKETPLACE AND THE
COLOUR YELLOW
I've learned that leadership
is inspiring others—every-
one has their own goals and
dreams. In order to continue
working with an ambitious and
committed team, we need to
grow alongside our running
mates, which means having
dreams and visions big enough
to include them.
"CREATE A VISION BIG
ENOUGH TO INCLUDE
YOUR TEAM'S VISION."
Bhupinder Hundal
NEWS DIRECTOR AND
STATION MANAGER,

It is easy to get distracted and
become emotional about things
that happen. However, giving
yourself time and space can go
a long way in preventing you
from making bad decisions.
"TAKE THE TIME TO
FIND CLARITY, THINK,
DISCUSS, GAIN INSIGHT
AND MAKE THOUGHTFUL
DECISIONS."
