Embracing Uncertainty | Darlene Berberabe | TEDxDiliman

Public service is a difficult and often thankless job, but is even more so when embarked upon in sudden and controversial circumstances. In this candid and honest talk, Darlene Berberabe reflects on, and shares the lessons learned from her experience in running one of the largest financial institutions in the Philippines, as a political appointee seemingly without any real background or relevant experience.

Darlene Berberabe is the President and CEO of the Pag-IBIG Fund, the Philippines' response to the need for a national savings program and an affordable shelter financing for the Filipino worker.

She is as accomplished as anyone - man or worman - gets. Among others, she was the
Chief Legal Counsel for Procter & Gamble Philippines; and a Professorial Lecturer at the University of the Philippines College of Law.

She obtained her law degree from the University of the Phlippines, as well as her bachelors degree in Philosophy from the same University, graduating summa cum laude in 1989.

She was awarded the Asia CEO of the Year Award for Public Sector Leadership, as well as
The Outstanding Women in the Nation’s Service (TOWNS) Award for Government Service, both in 2013

She is also Mother to Jamie Christine B. Lim, a World Karate Champion, and is a former aerobics instructor.
