Singapore – 12 November 2021 – Insight Enterprises (NASDAQ: NSIT) has been announced as a “Great Place to Work” in Singapore; with Insight Singapore ranking at number three in the inaugural 2021 Singapore Best Workplaces™ In Technology List by Great Place to Work®.
According to research and consulting firm, Great Place to Work®, which released the inaugural Singapore Best Workplaces in Technology List, selection is based on rigorous analytics and confidential employee feedback. Companies are only considered if they are a Great Place to Work-Certified™ organisation; and this year close to 50 companies in the technology sector are Great Place to Work-Certified™.

Says Joan Loo, Insight’s Regional Manager, Singapore and South Asia: “Working in an organization that is Great Place to Work Certified, that is recognised as number three in Singapore’s Best Places to Work in Technology List, makes me proud without a doubt. More importantly, my experience at Insight is fulfilling and satisfying because we're all part of a team with a high level of trust and support and really strong teamwork - which ultimately brings us to success without losing our values.”
According to Evelyn Kwek, Managing Director of Great Place to Work ASEAN and ANZ, the GPTW Singapore certification and rankings demonstrate exemplary team and culture performance and business results: “With Singapore’s aim to be a regional technology hub, companies on the 2021 Singapore Best Workplaces™ In Technology List are leading the way. These companies demonstrate that placing focus on business growth and putting people first need not be mutually exclusive. With the continuous war for talent in a highly competitive and rapidly evolving industry, we hope that these 10 ranked technology companies can be examples for industry players and provide attractive options for talent looking for their next place to grow their career.”
Commenting on this recognition for Insight Singapore, Marea Phillips, Insight Enterprises’ People & Culture Director, Asia Pacific (APAC), says: “There is no overnight formula for creating a great culture in a company. The key for us is a combination of leadership authenticity, trust, empowerment and respect for every teammate in our business.”
Likewise, it is this combination of best and brightest teammates, a growth-mindset – and kindness – that creates an inspiring Insight culture, says Mike Morgan, Senior Vice President & Managing Director, Insight Enterprises APAC. “Our business in Singapore continues to grow and go from strength to strength, with the best and brightest teammates who genuinely care for each other and our clients.

About Great Place to Work® and How It Determines the Best Workplaces in Technology List in Singapore
Great Place to Work identified the Best Workplaces by analysing technology companies’ workplace programs and surveying all their employees in Singapore (for companies with a staff strength of less than 5,000) about the key factors that create great workplaces for all.
Employees are invited to respond to 60 survey questions describing the extent to which their organisation creates a great place to work For All™, demonstrating how the company have empowered the individuals to reach their full human potential. 85% of the evaluation is based on what employees report about their experiences of trust and reaching their full human potential as part of their organisation, no matter who they are or what they do. GPTW analyse these experiences relative to each organisation’s size, workforce make up, and what’s typical in the technology sector. The remainder of the evaluation is an assessment of all employees’ daily experiences of the company’s values, people’s ability to contribute new ideas, and the effectiveness of their leaders to ensure they’re consistently experienced.
To ensure surveys truly represent all employees, GPTW requires enough people in each organisation to respond that results are accurate to a 95% confidence level and 5% margin of error or better. GPTW reviews any anomalies in survey responses, news and financial performance to ensure there aren’t any extraordinary reasons to believe we couldn’t trust a company’s survey results.
