This innocent grumble made Ee Ling realise how little education has changed amidst the fast-changing world we live in.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;21% of jobs in Singapore will disappear by 2028 when most of my\/ my friends\u2019 kids will be entering the workforce. The future of work and employment will change drastically, yet somehow education hasn\u2019t kept up.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was Ee Ling&#8217;s concern for the future of her children and other kids like them that led to the idea of Smarter Me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> She realised the need to create a school which complements the current education system &#8211; to prepare kids to adapt to the future world. While Ee Ling agrees that<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0core tech skills are important, she believes that it is equally crucial to equip kids with the right mindset and heart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She was actually working on Smarter Me on the side for 6 months. However, as an investment banker tackling long hours, she wasn\u2019t able to make real progress on the startup. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;Clich\u00e9 as it sounds, my push factor was really my husband \u2013 who asked me point blank if I felt I was making a difference (to society) in banking,&#8221; says Ee Ling.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Vision<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-21911 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Change-the-World-Innovation-Holiday-Camp-Students-001.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Change-the-World-Innovation-Holiday-Camp-Students-001.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Change-the-World-Innovation-Holiday-Camp-Students-001-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/Change-the-World-Innovation-Holiday-Camp-Students-001-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The vision statement reads: \u201cTo be a global school that prepares kids with the skillset, mindset and heart set, to define and achieve their own success and happiness in the future world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To explain this, Ee Ling tells me that skillset represents the hard skills and knowledge, such as coding, software developing and robotics.<\/p>\n<p>Mindset represents strategic skills like collaboration, critical thinking, problem-solving, resilience.

Running a start-up is always challenging and one constantly has to evolve, but one of the most challenging parts for her business is understanding human behaviour.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_21979\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-21979\" class=\"wp-image-21979 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/DSC02781.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/DSC02781.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/DSC02781-980x654.jpg 980w, https:\/\/server1.webstudio.com.sg\/~staging\/ypsg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/DSC02781-480x320.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) and (max-width: 980px) 980px, (min-width: 981px) 1000px, 100vw\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-21979\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Love Bonito&#8217;s Rachel Lim and Smarter Me CEO Lim Ee Ling in conversation during the YFS SEA 2018<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;Success goes beyond building a great product, it\u2019s about connecting with consumers.
