  • Summary

  • Are you paralyzed by the fear and risks associated with a career change at 30, 40, 50, or even 60? If you're ready to break free from traditional career paths and master your future, you've found the right place!

    Vince Chan: mastering 18 career shifts in 36 years

    I am your host, Vince Chan. My life story is a testament to overcoming fears and mastering futures on my own terms. Since the age of 15, I've navigated 18 career transitions across 36 years. I've weathered six economic crises, adapted to life in over 10 cities, and overcome battles with mental illness. But I've done more than just survive—I've thrived. From managing billion-dollar funds and publishing two books to navigating the academic halls of Yale and Chicago Booth and speaking on global education technology stages, I bring you wisdom not just from my victories but from the challenges I’ve faced, each time emerging stronger.

    What's in it for you?

    To help you get unstuck, minimize risks, and conquer fears—so you can reshape your career on your own terms, with resilience and intelligence—I created the "Chief Change Officer" podcast.

    Here, I don’t just celebrate superficial success or gloss over painful failures—I share time-tested, real-life stories of career transformation that are both lived and learnable.

    The centerpiece of the podcast is the learnable career story told by real-life role models, akin to the business cases used in the HBS Case Method, a century-old educational standard still revered in top modern business schools. Each episode is crafted to deliver practical insights you can immediately apply to your own career.

    Guests: credible and diverse role models

    I meticulously select the most credible global figures for you to learn from. This careful curation ensures that every episode not only expands your understanding but also maximises your ability to supercharge your own incredible careers.

    My guests range from the youngest Singaporean parliamentarian at 30, who shares her candid experiences overcoming ageism in politics and social media attacks, to a trailblazing LGBT tech CEO at 60, discussing her transformation from oboe musician to sales and revenue technology leader. You’ll also hear from a polyglot Russian diplomat turned energy innovator in Cincinnati at 50, who explores the self-starter skills needed to pivot industries successfully, and a Parisian lawyer who left banking at 40 to dedicate herself to building the youth economy in Senegal, offering insights into global entrepreneurship.

    Bonus: No Ads, Just Pure Inspiration: An added bonus—my podcast features no ads, no political, corporate, or sales talk, ensuring authentic and uninterrupted conversations.

    Mar 8 2024

    Welcome to Chief Change Officer, where we skip the fancy frills and dive straight into what matters: real, raw stories of change. If you’re hunting for a podcast with all the bells and whistles, we might not be your jam. But if you crave something genuine, you've hit the jackpot.

    Inclusive? Check. Season One lines up ten amazing speakers - a balanced mix of five gals and five guys aged 30 to 60, stretching from the US through Europe to Asia. They bring you stories from all corners of life: finance, hotels, DEI, politics, academia, and even energy.

    Global? Absolutely. It’s like jet-setting without leaving your room, offering you views and vibes from around the world.

    Credible? You bet. This is an invite-only party where I personally pick the guests. I've known them long enough to promise you're getting the straight dope, no fluff.

    Authentic? For sure. Forget job titles; our guests are here because they've walked the walk. They’ve lived the changes they talk about and are actively shaping the future for others. Real talk from real changemakers.

    Unbiased? 100%. No politics, no corporate buzzwords, no sales pitches, and definitely no AI-made content. Just genuine stories from people who mean what they say.

    If you’re ready for something different, something that celebrates change from all angles, join us. Let’s make your laws of change together.
