Learn to deal with uncertainty

Singaporeans like to have clear instructions, so they can follow them to the letter. 
This type of thinking is not suitable for positions of leadership and innovation. These positions require people who are able to deal with uncertainty and incomplete information, and to use their initiative to find the solution.
Singaporeans also need to be comfortable about solving a problem in stages. Do what they know first, even if it is incomplete. The rest can come later. 
We need to change our education system so that our young are comfortable about the new approach dealing with uncertainty and incomplete solutions.
