Why
The problem is usually not the person you hired.
We asked employers in Singapore what the hardest part of hiring a helper was. The most common answer was not the candidate. It was managing their own expectations, ahead of reference checks and ahead of the agency.
Nobody had written down what the job was, what good looked like, or when the two of you would sit down and talk about it. Those are operational problems, and operational problems have fixes.
That is what shared means in our name. Set by you, shared with her, adjusted so it holds.
The survey ran as part of an MBA thesis on leadership in the household and trust in cross-cultural teams. Every regulatory and cost figure in the books is sourced to the Singapore body that sets it, with the date it was last checked.
