Allen Lee is Head of People at Aspire and an organisational psychologist with 20+ years of global HR experience across Oracle, WeWork, SK Telecom, and more. A published author and expert in startup scale-ups, Allen helps teams build cultures of performance, wellbeing, and growth. His mission: bring psychological insight to People Ops and help startups lead with intention—not just instinct.
Excellence and engagement aren’t opposites—they’re codependent. In this session, Allen Lee shares how startups can use 'people science' to design cultures that scale with intention. Drawing on 20+ years in HR and a Ph.D. in Organisational Psychology, he explores how to align culture and strategy, avoid common growth-stage traps, and build practices that actually retain top talent. A session for People leaders who want more than vibes—they want results.
