SINGAPORE – I gave my son a book recently about finding his career pathway. Its title is 80,000 Hours: How To Have A Fulfilling Career That Does Good (2026).
The book is by British author Benjamin Todd, the founder and president of 80,000 Hours. The latter is a London-based non-profit organisation that conducts research on which careers have the largest positive social impact, and provides career advice and support.
