Voices Of Asia Information

Who are we? Voices Of Asia is a social enterprise which aims to create a more supportive society in Asia, by creating a movement of authentic leadership, where leaders of all kinds, step forward willingly to share their personal stories and commit to mentoring someone. www.voicesofasia.org Why Voices Of Asia? There is a glaring need in the market place, with increased family challenges, increased competition, ageing population, low self-esteem & as a result, disharmony in the marketplace. People need help but often, they keep things to themselves. Formal support structures are also not as effective as we hope they would be. We exist to help curb the increasing trends of depression and mental health problems in our societies. These trends are caused by ever increasing expectations and changes in the Volatile, Uncertain, Complex & Ambiguous (VUCA) world. See our report What do we do? Our projects started with storytelling in 2010, and while our leader volunteers continue to tell their stories, we started the mentoring project in 2017. This will make our support for individuals even more targeted and measurable, while enabling us to transform lives, a mentee at a time. How we do it? Mentors with specific experiences are invited to step forward, while on the hand, we welcome individuals who are going through critical transitions in life, where they struggle to speak to someone and to make important decisions. Voices Of Asia matches a mentor and a mentee on a journey of life’s transformation. Our mentors have also been helping step-up our movement by speaking and conducting trainings on a pro-bono basis so that we help equip people with the capabilities to be successful.
