Raymond Seeto's career reads like a journey through the major technological and economic transformations of our time. From introducing direct selling in China immediately after Tiananmen Square to teaching factory workers how to use their first computers, Raymond has consistently positioned himself at the intersection of innovation and human connection.
Our conversation takes us from his early days with Avon and Danone in late-1980s China to his work with cutting-edge medical devices that treated brain tumors using radiofrequency technology. Raymond draws fascinating parallels between the PC revolution he witnessed firsthand and today's AI transformation – both representing not just incremental improvements but fundamental shifts in how we process information and solve problems.
Most revealing is Raymond's passion for community banking at Bendigo Bank's Darling Square branch in Sydney. He shares how their innovative model sends profits back into local community projects while creating a banking experience that feels more like a five-star hotel than a traditional branch. There are no counters or barriers – just conversations in a space designed to build trust. This human-centered approach explains why Bendigo consistently ranks among Australia's most trusted brands while major banks continue closing branches.
Raymond's career wisdom comes from decades of giving "100% to whatever I do" – something he acknowledges as both strength and weakness. His advice to younger professionals is refreshingly direct: "Whoever you work for will only look after themselves. You need to look after yourself as well." Listen now to discover how one man's remarkable career journey demonstrates that even in finance and technology, authentic human connection remains our most valuable currency.
