Effective immediately, Ms. Ang will be succeeding Teresa Lim who will be taking a leave of absence.

In a release, Cordelia Chung, Regional General Manager, IBM ASEAN said, “Janet’s unique mix of foresight, passion and dedication to client success makes her the right person to lead IBM Singapore in its next growth chapter, building on the significant investments in Singapore by the IBM Corporation and the legacy of strong ecosystem partnerships that Teresa leaves behind.”

Ms. Chung added, “I want to thank Teresa for her leadership and lasting contributions. In the last four and a half years, Teresa has worked tirelessly to help IBM Singapore build new business, bring innovative solutions to our clients and make Singapore an oft-cited Smarter City reference for IBM around the world.”

Janet Ang returns to Singapore with invaluable experience and perspectives gained from her assignments in China over the last seven years. Prior to this appointment, Ms. Ang served as Vice President, Strategic Services, IBM Greater China. Before that she was Vice President, Integrated Technology Services, IBM Greater China.

She also served as Vice President for Personal Systems Group in IBM Greater China and Vice President for Worldwide Desktop Business Unit in Lenovo. Ms. Ang has over 20 years of executive experience. She first joined IBM Singapore in 1982 as a Systems Engineer.

Ms. Ang serves on the board of external organisations including the Singapore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SingCham) in China for which she is Vice Chair and as a Trustee on the Board of the International School of Beijing (ISB). She is also a senior member of the Singapore Computer Society and member of Business China (Singapore).

Ms. Ang said, “I am thrilled to be returning to IBM Singapore at such an exciting time. Singapore’s economy has emerged from the global financial crisis stronger than ever and the economic strategy is focused on deepening our nation’s capabilities in research and development, innovation and sustainable urban solutions.”

You're the reader we write for. You're also the person our partners want to reach.

If that sentence describes you — a founder, a C-suite, someone whose attention companies pay good money for — then you already understand why SBR works. We've spent twenty years earning the trust of readers exactly like you. Which is exactly what makes this an interesting place for your company to show up, too.

The ways it can show up are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The right fit depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If your company has something this audience should know about, we'd like to hear what you're working on.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.

30 One-Sentence Stories From People Who Have Built Better Habits

None of these stories are mine. They were sent to me by readers of Atomic Habits. My hope is that these examples will illustrate how real people are putting the book into practice. They will show you what people are actually doing to build good habits and break bad ones. And hopefully, they will spark some ideas for how you can do the same.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
