Dr Anantachai – Ikigai and your reason for being and to smile every day :-D

Today we are joined by Dr Anantachai (Orm), the Managing Director of INTAGE Thailand. INTAGE is a pioneer in marketing research ranking in the top 10 largest firms globally.

Orm is an experienced marketing and research professional and leader with a focus on building strong and purposeful teams who love their job and seek social contribution.

We discuss Orm’s time as a 15 year old spending a year studying in Wagga Wagga, Australia, with not the kindest of welcomes from other students, but remaining with a smile every day, made close friends and lifelong relationships.

We discuss the Japanese concept ikigai which guides a person’s ‘reason for being’ and discuss how today’s new young professionals are seeking work-life integration and achieving a higher purpose and contribution to the world beyond just work.
