Hi fellow colleagues!
My name is Liana, your Regional HR Manager based out of Singapore. When I joined OmniRaise in February 2020, I remembered feeling really excited about the journey I was about to embark on. Fast forward to where I am today, I realise there has never been a dull moment – I am fulfilled and completely enjoying this ride.
Omiraise is fundamentally made up of many young, vibrant and talented individuals. For that, I am ever thankful as your youthful energy creates a thriving atmosphere that makes every working moment a special one. At the risk of sounding cliché, I must say that many of you have inspired me not only with your achievements and progressive growth, but also your fighting spirit and resilience.
You have shared with me many amazing stories that have truly highlighted the love, the impact you made, and more importantly, the power that is within you, which is why you do what you do! All of you are a force to be reckoned with. With much pride, I dare to say that you have made me a more appreciative person and I urge you to never stop sharing your stories.
As a HR practitioner for more than 15 years, I am grateful for the opportunity that this industry has provided me, and the vast learning experience I have benefitted from. Having led various HR teams and worked with many peers in this industry, the opportunity to work at OmniRaise was one that I jumped on almost immediately, as I knew I would love to once again work with a group of dynamic fundraisers, as I had with the team I built at WWF-Singapore.
With new challenges at every other turn, this job has been super fun! It has always been my desire to see HR practitioners blossom in their profession and become experts in the field. I am very proud to see this desire realised, with all the HR team members in our Malaysia and Thailand offices. It is truly heart-warming to watch their journey as they sync their individual dynamics to become #oneteam that watches our backs and runs this journey with us together.
The pandemic currently upon us deviates from normalcy. This year serves as an important reminder that nothing is as constant as change and in spite of that, it is important to stay motivated. With much fervour, I would like to congratulate everyone for embracing the new normal while thriving in the work that you do. Well done!
To end this off, here’s a simple drawing from me to illustrate what really matters this festive season, complete with a few of my favourite inspiring quotes. Stay safe and be merry, everyone!
