In a recent CNA TODAY Big Read, Ngee Koon was highlighted as one of the Singapore companies tackling low employee engagement head-on. By listening to staff feedback and aligning work practices with real team needs, the firm introduced a common weekly work‑from‑home day and regular cross‑team touchpoints to improve collaboration, reduce silos, and strengthen a sense of belonging.
The article underscores that managers play a pivotal role in engagement—accounting for up to 70% of the variance in team performance—and that small, intentional changes can make a big difference. For Ngee Koon, this people-first mindset complements its core values of craftsmanship, communication, and community. The feature also spotlights its long-term partnership with designers and developers such as commercial design and build firm LFA Studio.
This feature reinforces Ngee Koon’s commitment not just to exceptional build quality, but to cultivating a workplace where employees feel heard, supported, and empowered to do their best work.
