MAQE COO Drew Kamthong Talks Tech, Design & Management in Bangkok [Season 3, Episode 40]

This week Greg interviews Drew Kamthong of MAQE, a digital
consultancy that started as a web design firm that has
transformed into a full blown consulting agency for a myriad of
digital solutions.


Drew talks about some of the challenges companies face in
Thailand, particularly when they implement modern management
techniques such as Scrum and a workplace culture that rewards
full transparency and merit-based promotions. Drew explains
MAQE's unique system of 'guilds and crews' to train and reward
their people, the nuances of hiring (and employing) Thai and
foreign staff, and the confusing process of applying for the
coveted BOI status - and the benefits it brings - in the
fast-paced tech industry.
