Amit Lal Singh, the Group CEO and Managing Director of ADI Group, on the power of making connections, both online and offline

The journey of Adi Thailand over the last 15 years. "On the power of making connections, both online and offline."

 
The word ‘connection’ contains multitudes, especially in today’s digital age: it’s touching someone on a personal level; it’s communication; it’s linking two people together; and at the same time, it’s having access to the internet and the infinite possibilities therein. Amit Lal Singh, the Group CEO and Managing Director of ADI Group, is a man who intimately understands connection in more ways than one.

A company that he started from scratch at a time in his life when it would have been a true leap of faith, ADI Group provides staffing and recruitment, IT software consulting, payroll, and work permit services. This means that they not only connect people and companies, filling a gap for both, but they also help teams and corporations to digitalise according to the needs of the hour. “If customers have a project, they can come to us to recruit short-term staff, often to do with IT, as everyone is digitalising but not everyone has teams with the right skills,” he explains. “We also connect companies with the right talent for permanent positions, in both IT and beyond, and finally, we help foreign companies with their projects in Thailand by creating a joint venture with them, wherein they can hire people on our payroll, and we help them to analyse and interface with their customers.”
This deceptively-simple vision of connecting the right people with each other has now grown into a global corporation spanning seven countries, whose client base has now expanded to many of Thailand’s leading corporations and biggest banks. Beyond this, however, Amit, as someone who refuses to rest on his laurels, has brought his nose for business to a range of industries across the board: from travel technology to investments in travel agencies, numerous start-ups in both Thailand and India, and soon, two restaurants in Silom and Narathiwat.

Amit emphasises that initiatives like this stem from his deep belief that success can only be attributed to the people that you surround yourself with. “If you hire the right people, and you can share your vision with them, with visible milestones, they’ll believe in your end goal. If you take care of people, they’ll take care of you.” Part of this care, he tells me, is allowing them space to grow at their own pace. “One of my biggest challenges over the years was learning patience,” he says. “Over the past two decades of experience, I’ve learned that as a businessperson, you don’t need to push too much. Everyone wants to do something good; to be appreciated. Our role as senior leaders and managers is to guide people, and find out what support they want, and give them the right tools. Pull people up, and don’t panic, and make sure people know that you’re there when the business needs you.”

As for his dreams for the future? Like his current pursuits, they’re not small. “Professionally, I want ADI to reach a level where we are one of the top three companies in SE Asia,” he says. “I want to see that I have given enough career growth, as well as personal growth, to all my team members. I want to reach a level where they’ve acquired financial independence.” This desire to give people independence extends even towards his children: “I want to see my kids successful in their careers too, and not dependent on me.” Aside from these laudable dreams, however, he’s happy to enjoy life as it comes. “I love golf, I used to play it twice a week. It gives me a lot of energy, and it allows me to think outside the box, and bounce my ideas off the friends I play with, from various fields. I also like to play a whole variety of other sports. I’m not a champion, but I can play in a team – and at the end of the day, that’s what’s most important.”
