Customer service includes a variety of roles, from pre- and post-sales to quality
management and process improvement. There is a growing need for companies to
be specialised in their customer experience and journey, which is forcing customer
service in companies to be more quality driven, work more closely with internal
departments, drive performance and standards, and improve cost structure. This
makes Singapore a more specialised market with fewer call centre roles and more
niche roles. Industries such as education, telecommunications, consumer/ FMCG,
logistics, supply chain and manufacturing, aviation and oil and gas, and insurance/

If you want to start a new job early next year
it would be a good idea to start applying

you can line up interviews in December,

the holidays too and start fresh in January.
If you decide to apply for jobs in January
you could be waiting until March or

LEADERSHIP IN A CRISIS
HOW TO BE A LEADER
Top
Stephen Tjoa
Partner,
People Performance & Culture
KPMG Advisory LLP
By Margaret Lim
etc@mdis.edu.sg
www.mdis.edu.sg
Here are seven lessons for leaders charged with leading their organizations through a crisis:
Lesson 1: Leaders must face reality. Reality starts with the person in charge. Leaders need to look
themselves in the mirror and recognize their role in creating the problems. Then they should gather
their teams together and gain agreement about the root causes. Widespread recognition of reality is
the crucial step before problems can be solved. Attempting to find short-term fixes that address the
symptoms of the crisis only ensures the organization will wind up back in the same predicament.
In order to understand the real reasons for the crisis, everyone on the leadership team must be
willing to tell the whole truth. Leaders cant solve problems if they dont acknowledge their existence.
Lesson 2: No matter how bad things are, they will get worse. Faced with bad news, many leaders
cannot believe that things could really be so grim. Consequently, they try to convince the bearers of bad
news that things arent so bad, and swift action can make problems go away.
This causes leaders to undershoot the mark in terms of corrective actions. As a consequence, they
wind up taking a series of steps, none of which is powerful enough to correct the downward spiral.
It is far better for leaders to anticipate the worst and get out in front of it. If they restructure their cost
base for the worst case, they can get their organization healthy for the turnaround when it comes
and take advantage of opportunities that present themselves.
Lesson 3: Build a mountain of cash, and get to the highest hill. In good times leaders worry
more about earnings per share and revenue growth than they do about their balance sheets. In a
crisis, cash is king. Forget about earnings-per-share and all those stock market measures. The
question is, Does your organization have sufficient cash to survive the most dire circumstances?
Lesson 4: Get the world off your shoulders. In a crisis, many leaders act like Atlas, carrying the
weight of the world on their shoulders. They go into isolation, and think they can solve the problem
themselves. In reality, leaders must have the help of all their people to devise solutions and to
implement them. This means bringing people into their confidence, asking them for help and ideas,
and gaining their commitment to painful corrective actions.
Lesson 5: Before asking others to sacrifice, first volunteer yourself. If there are sacrifices to
be made and there will be then the leaders should step up and make the greatest sacrifices
themselves. Everyone is watching to see what the leaders do. Will they stay true to their values?
Will they bow to external pressures, or confront the crisis in a straight-forward manner? Will they be
seduced by short-term rewards, or will they make near-term sacrifices in order to fix the long-term
situation?
Lesson 6: Never waste a good crisis. When things are going well, people resist major changes
or try to get by with minor adaptations. A crisis provides the leader with the platform to get things
done that were required anyway and offers the sense of urgency to accelerate their implementation.
Lesson 7: Be aggressive in the marketplace. This may sound counter-intuitive, but a crisis offers
the best opportunity to change the game in your favor, with new products or services to gain market
share. Many people look at a crisis as something to get through, until they can go back to business
as usual. But business as usual never returns because markets are irrevocably changed. Why
not create the changes that move the market in your favor, instead of waiting and reacting to the
changes as they take place?
TIPS:
Face reality. Leaders cant solve problems if they dont acknowledge their existence.
If there are sacrifices to be made, leaders should step up and make the greatest
sacrifices themselves.
Leaders must have the help of all their people to devise solutions and to implement them.
