You are a loving parent and a ambitious technology leader. How do you manage it all?
Join me as I go in-depth with parents who are technology leaders, founders and investors about what it really takes to balance career ambitions with family aspirations.
My name is Qin En, your host. When I started my first company at the age of 20, I struggled with over-work. I believed that my 20s and 30s should be a relentless pursuit of career achievement. Family & parenting can wait.
A few years later, I met my wife, Gladys. She helped me discover a new happiness - one from a balanced life and engaged family. When we welcomed our daughter, Gabrielle, that happiness amplified. So did stress, disagreements and challenges.
I know I am not alone. Parents in Tech is where we share stories and lessons about parenting, entrepreneurship and technology. Each and every one of you is welcome.
Season 1 spotlights mums in tech, followed by dads in Season 2. We also partner up with like-minded organizations including Microsoft, Stripe and Workato to feature unique stories on parenting and working in tech.

Flexible Working Style, Leadership and Massive Improvements with BanWei Chua of Sleek
Providing a balanced and flexible working environment that allows employees to fulfill their duties at work and at home leads to producing quality work. In this special collaboration with Sleek, I talk to BanWei Chua about how he balances work and family life through the flexible working environment that Sleek provides to parents like him.
BanWei Chua started as a developer and senior manager before becoming the Deputy Chief Technology Officer in Sleek. He is a parent to a boy and a girl, ages nine and seven.
In this episode, he discusses the importance of setting priorities at work and at home as a parent, and how Sleek allowed him to be a hands-on father, learning and applying his role at work and being a leader. He also talks about sharing and adapting his parenting style in his working environment.
