DBS CEO: Transforming Southeast Asian Banking, Embracing Diversity and Balancing AI with Humanity
What does it take to lead Southeast Asia’s largest bank in an age of disruption?

She also shares candid reflections on her own journey—why she once chose to “demote” herself for the sake of impact, how reverse mentoring keeps her fresh, and why curiosity, resilience, and empathy are at the heart of her leadership style. (And don’t miss the twist at the end—when Su Shan turns the tables with a few questions of her own for Nicolai.
