Meet Gianna
In a whirlwind of fate, coffee mix-ups, and insightful conversations, Gianna — a young professional feeling out of place in her first job — encounters Gloria — a well-travelled, experienced professional of the maritime industry.
MEET GIANNA
Gianna is in her first job after graduation and has been feeling unfulfilled in her career. She does not feel like she has learnt anything new, and dreams of the possibilities of a job that allows her to combine what she loves and is good at. A mix-up at a local coffee shop leads to a conversation with Gloria, a seasoned maritime professional who is deeply passionate about the industry. Their conversation centres around a forgotten book on ‘IKIGAI’, as Gloria regales her with stories about individuals who have found theirs.
INSPIRED BY REAL PEOPLE
Meet Gladys See, a shipbroker at Howe Robinson Partners. Like Gianna, Gladys’ quest for fulfillment made her realise that her initial career in a marketing department of the Food & Beverage sector wasn’t her true calling. This sparked her venture into a different, yet exciting, new industry — maritime. With her analytical mind and networking capabilities, along with her outgoing personality and can-do mindset, Gladys is breaking new ground in her newfound maritime career.
