Our newest edition, Best HR Leaders from Asia 2026, just went live, and this one is for those who usually work out of sight but are the backbone of any growing organisation. Across Asia's tech and #manufacturing hubs, 2025 became the year of the midnight layoff email, the kind sent over Slack before a manager even knew their own team had shrunk. This edition is built around the leaders who represented the other version of that year, the ones who slowed a boardroom down, insisted on a severance package that actually covered rent, or walked into a restructuring meeting and asked why the cuts kept missing the people who'd actually caused the losses. TradeFlock spent months talking to #HR heads across finance, manufacturing, technology, and healthcare about what their job looked like once the easy wins–engagement surveys, free lunches, wellness apps–stopped moving the needle. What came back were harder stories: compensation frameworks rebuilt from scratch after a wave of resignations nobody in leadership saw coming, hiring freezes overturned because someone finally ran the numbers on what attrition was actually costing. Also read our 'Story of the Month' on how Indonesia's fires are burning hotter than anywhere else on earth. Grab your free e-copy now. The issue is out for reading: tradeflockasia.com/magazine-…

A DHL insider of two decades takes the wheel in South Asia. Sandeep Juneja is now SVP, South Asia and MD, India at @DHLExpressIndia, overseeing India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bhutan and the Maldives. Can a homegrown leader make South Asia DHL's next growth engine?

Leadership beyond the balance sheet. On her birthday, Nita Ambani broke ground on Anant Ashray, a 100-acre community in Karjat near Mumbai that will give lifelong homes to 5,000 orphaned children, seniors and people with disabilities, with a hospital, an inclusive school and vocational training on site. #Leadership

₹52,878 crore for 60.72% at ₹81 a share. Fairfax Financial's IDBI Bank deal, cleared by the Cabinet on 14 Oct, is the largest FDI in India's financial sector, and employee unions plan strikes on 2–3 Nov. The real test now is execution: keeping talent and customers through an ownership change of this scale. #IDBIBank #Banking

Huge move in India's power sector! The CCI has officially cleared Adani Energy Solutions' ₹3,050-crore acquisition of IntelliSmart Infrastructure. With this buyout, Adani now controls a massive portfolio of over 4.7 crore smart meters, making it the absolute leader in India's digital grid revolution.

Worked at a top VC fund? Your odds of landing a lead investor are 3.0x. Ex-Tesla or SpaceX: 1.83x. An MBA: 0.60x. Deedy Das's analysis of 5,000 startups suggests insider networks still beat credentials in fundraising, though they don't guarantee better companies. #Startups #VentureCapital

Better questions build stronger teams than better answers. Heath Squier, Founder of EVKII, Inc., starts with three: What outcome are we after? What evidence supports your view? What would change your mind? #Leadership #Delegation
