Climate change is indisputable, as well as its impact on our planet’s invaluable but finite resources. Indeed, this is one of the most pressing paradoxes of our time: How do we strive for industrial growth while also being mindful of the traditional environmental impact of productivity?

“I worked with company founders, doctors and nurses who have very high professional standards and believe doing the right thing matters more than revenue or profit because people’s lives are at stake,” she recalls.
It is a lesson Singapore native Lena has carried with her into her current role as Senior Director for Customer and Business Development at CLP Power.
