Follow Your Passion or Find Passion in What You Do?

Cheryl Yeoh left Malaysia at 18 to study at Cornell University in the United States on a full scholarship. Since then she has co-founded two tech startups in New York and is now working for the largest retailer in the world. We ask her about passion versus success, her relationship to Malaysia and her presentation at the recently concluded TEDxKLwomen conference.
