Hello there! I'm Ngo Viet Quy, and I was born in 1972 in Saigon, Vietnam. I am married and have two children. My oldest son is in his third year of university, majoring in law, and my second daughter will be starting in October.

I am currently working as a strategic advisor for Blocedu Ventures Ltd., a Canadian company focused on finance technology platforms.

The motivation that drew me to the Master in Innovation and Entrepreneurship at UniAthena was the core subject matter I was looking for.I was seeking an upgrade to my Postgraduate Diploma in Design Thinking and Innovation, which I earned from the Institute of Emeritus. This Master degree will help me a lot in my current work to encourage innovation in my company.

As my next learning endeavor, I intend to pursue a PhD in innovation to support my next career move as a lecturer in digital transformation and innovation.

Practices used in the classroom will have a significant impact on the teacher.

My ideal job would be to be a successful and well-respected advisor to agricultural businesses, particularly those involved in coffee production and export.

When I have a problem at work, I try to determine the root cause.

The most difficult challenge I have ever faced in my life has been people management, as it appears that I am too open in my work, causing people to break principles, which adversely affects the business. Finally, I addressed this issue by empowering people within the metrics framework they established themselves.

Though I am not a perfect person, I do not want to change anything about myself because I am contented with who I am. I just wish I had more time to devote to my continued education and research on whatever subject I am interested in.

The last book I read was Prof. Vijay Govindarajan's The Three Box Solution, and the last movie I saw was Apollo 13.

An important life lesson that I learned was from a failed business in financial services 10 years ago which inspired me to continue learning and researching for success.
