Leading a young direct-service charity as a young leader (Glyph Community's Lim Si Hui)
Manage episode 370865758 series 2763854
On this podcast, we've moved away from direct features of charities and social service agencies, not only because there are so many with interesting stories, but also because a greater focus on systemic trends and structural solutions - involving multiple parties - feels more productive. Nevertheless, the story of Glyph Community (https://www.glyphcommunity.com/) and one of its founders, Lim Si Hui, was very compelling.
Glyph is a charity offering non-academic enrichment programmes to disadvantaged children, and 26-year-old Si Hui herself dropped out of university to work at and manage Glyph full-time. Given her young age, leading a direct-service charity, I was interested in how she managed staff and volunteers, challenges she's faced, and how she navigated the broader social work and social service space in Singapore as a young leader.
