* She emphasises understanding one's strengths and weaknesses to maximise potential.



MaxMe approach to skills development 



* Ren explains MaxMe's hybrid learning model using gamified tech and human coaching to scale skills development affordably.

* Self-paced learning alone proves ineffective, so MaxMe injects social elements and accountability.

* Ren thanks them for the engaging discussion and for spreading MaxMe's message of empowering human potential through understanding oneself and collaborating complementarily.
