Having thought leaders that insprire the younger generation and help them find passion or ignite the fire on them is good! We need more mentors in the field!

2018-03-24 09:47:06 UTC

2018-03-24 09:47:47 UTC

Perhaps we could envision what policies with social work values would look like, develop our voices, and figure out a coherent, representative and evidence-based view and recommendation.

2018-03-24 09:48:12 UTC

Advocating, empowering & making a difference in the lives of others requires a thinking process to met up what needs to be done so as to ensure it’s thorough & timely.

Vision is clear, will need all stakeholders to come together to align in vision and achieve the stated Mission. More work needs to be done to for the social work community to unite together

2018-03-24 09:56:59 UTC

Great vision and mission! Maybe the vision could be “Being a Thought leader for the social work profession and for the promotion of social justice in Singapore.”

It is important to advocate for the emerging social needs as the society changes

2018-03-24 09:57:04 UTC

2018-03-24 09:57:09 UTC

Yes! It will help to guide social workers in their profession and personal development!

Being a leader is being able to be empathetic towards those who are less fortunate.

2018-03-24 09:58:49 UTC

We need more of you guys!!! 🎈

Being a thought leader is important as in times of crisis one needs to be persuasive and influential.

2018-03-24 11:05:36 UTC

Coming together for greater social causes which leads to the empowerment of t
he weak and vulnerable. Having the space to impact and influence will lead to a leap forward! The idea is great, but perhaps another word other than 'thought' to better depict? 💪

2018-03-24 11:10:25 UTC

Love the incorporation of social justice in the vision statement!!! We should uphold and embody it even more!

2018-03-24 11:11:22 UTC
