Based on the report, it seems to me that almost, if not all, of the problems are the employer's weaknesses. The issue is whether or not employers are willing to invest for solution to enable FWA.

Networking Event Insight: Personal Branding Matters At a recent networking event, I met a leader from one of Singapore's top banks. Unfortunately, his unprofessional and nasty demeanor was a stark reminder of the importance of personal branding. Our behavior reflects not only on us but also on our organisations. Watch my video to learn more about aligning your actions with your brand values. #Branding #PersonalBranding #Professionalism #Networking

Isn't life beautifully unpredictable? I fondly recall my vibrant journey with my colleague Edmund Chan at HP, where we relentlessly pursued excellence and personal growth. Today, our paths have crossed in a different light, with Edmund evolving from a colleague to a valued client. This shift in dynamics is an emblem of enduring professional relationships. It's like an artful dance, ever adaptable and free-flowing. Our shared past enhances our present interactions, cultivating a mutual understanding that's hard to come by. Today, platforms like #LinkedIn are integral for nurturing such relationships. It's not about fleeting connections, but meaningful, long-standing alliances that adapt and flourish with us. As we embrace the week ahead, let's ponder: Think about the professional relationships that have grown with you over time. Have any unexpected alliances stood the test of time and transitioned just like my relationship with Edmund Chan? How these relationships have influenced our professional identities. How have they shaped who we are today? Delve into these questions as you map out your week. Here's to a Monday full of purpose, reflection, and the nurturing of valuable professional relationships!

“Climate is the means, Nature is the end” - a quote from Professor Lawrence Loh of the NUS Business School NUS Centre for Governance and Sustainability (CGS) As we address the climate issue, let's remember: climate is the means, nature is the end. 💡From an investor perspective, sustainable practices drive long-term value. 💡For companies serious about sustainability, it's not just a checkbox, but a core strategy. 💡And for consumers who care, eco-friendly choices are a way of life. It emphasizes that efforts to address climate change should ultimately aim to preserve and restore nature, not just mitigate climate impacts. This distinction underlines the idea that while addressing climate change is critical, it is a step toward the larger goal of protecting and sustaining the natural environment. Let's focus on preserving the beauty and wonder of nature, rather than just mitigating climate change. By doing so, we'll create a better future for all. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #NatureMatters Photo credit: aljazeera

1️⃣ Totally Agree with you Respected Prime Minister Lawrence Wong 🇸🇬 2️⃣ Singapore 🇸🇬 as it is today has become rather transactional minded - this cuts across our ecosystem and economy; to change this mindset where by default to include others in our thoughts, words and actions is a major major shift !!! 3️⃣ Coco Veda does pursue this path as a Triple Bottomline Small Business which we hope can grow, scale and internationalise as a proud Singapore 🇸🇬 brand with an in-built Farm to Consumer Sustainability Model. In other words, we Do Well and Do Good in equal measure with NO CHANGE to our fundamental processes. 4️⃣ As it stands, this a road less travelled and we can only achieve this through meaningful like-minded collaborations as well as support. We're constantly reaching out; it would be great if this trend reverses and we get approached for collaborations. 5️⃣ That will then be a sign of the new Social Fabric that you hope to achieve PM Lawrence Wong Gratitude for your heartled thought leadership and sharing. #Singapore #singapura #majulahsingapura #mindset #change 🙏🏾🇸🇬🙏🏾🥥🙏🏾

Ipoh is renowned for its Hainanese chicken rice and noodles with bean sprouts—a culinary signature that’s as memorable as it is delicious. There’s something special about being recognised for certain excellence. As I reflected on my sales recruit days, my manager shared this wisdom to me: “Be memorable.” He wasn’t just talking about our product; he was talking about how we need to be remembered easily by our customers. How are we anchoring ourselves and value to our customers? It’s about making an impression that sticks, crafting an experience that stays with your customers long after the call ends. So, in your sales calls, are you leaving a lasting mark and what is it?

𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐚 𝐂𝐨𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐒𝐨 𝐌𝐚𝐧𝐲? I get this question a lot since I began pursuing ICF accreditation for our school 2 years ago. There are indeed already many established options, so why? While there are many reasons, the single most compelling factor that pushed me to take the plunge is the ability to empower professionals and leaders in the impact sector. My stints with Teach For Malaysia and the United Nations Development Programme showed me that many talented individuals in the impact sector have a hunger for growth and a deep desire to make a real difference. Unfortunately, they lack the resources to invest in their development. These passionate individuals, already underpaid compared to the for-profit sector, often have to dig deep into their own pockets to become a certified ICF coach. By becoming an accredited coaching school, we gain the flexibility to cultivate coaches in both the business and impact sectors. These coaches, in turn, will spread the seeds of coaching, leading to a wider circle of individuals experiencing its positive impact. We're proud to announce that in 2023 and 2024, we offered scholarships with a 50% subsidy to five exceptional professionals and leaders. But we're not stopping there! We're partnering with the ICF Foundation to provide two fully funded scholarships in 2025. This will open doors for even more deserving leaders who yearn to make a meaningful contribution through coaching. Check out more below!

#Singapore So nice to be in #Singapore again for F2F workshop. When I reflected on this class in Singapore a few days back, a few things popped up in my mind: 1. It does take time to build rapport, the same between learners and facilitator. Comes with that is the positive vibes, the dynamic, the openness, and a more impactful session 2. It truly is not an easy thing to influence others, especially when one has to influence without authority 3. Be self-aware of our strengths and blind spots when we influence others and managing stakeholders is the foundation to effective influencing #Leadershipdevelopment #www.infinitelnd.com #InfluencingwithImpact

Reading through *In-Camp Thoughts: What ICT Call-ups Reveal About Our Work Culture* is like watching Singaporeans wage a new battle - against a toxic work culture that won’t let them breathe. Is this what we’ve reduced National Service to? A glorified coffee break, with our work always one Wi-Fi signal away? Think about it. We’re training the next generation of soldiers who are already business soldiers, unable to disconnect, to recharge, or even to trust that their teams can manage without them. Some have to double their workload ahead of ICT, others juggle department group chats while in the jungle. The *real* national service seems to be proving that Singaporeans can work even from their foxholes! ❗️It’s time for a reality check: if your team crumbles when you’re gone for two weeks, you’ve got a management issue, not a staffing problem. And if our culture glorifies working through ICT, maybe we need to rethink what values we’re building this nation on. Stop applauding “round-the-clock dedication” and start creating workplaces that value resilience and independence. After all, if we can't unplug, what are we really achieving? #Leadership #NationalService #Singapore

THE MAGICIAN. In my years leading the L&D department, there's been many instances where my colleagues have been dubbed as a bunch of witchcraft practicing people. The most common expression was 'Korang macam David Copperfield oo'. But, I do not want to reveal just how ancient I am (and the other parties) with such statement. This is because of my colleagues ability to solve virtually any and all problems, issues and hiccups. Even when the requestors themselves admitted that: 'Sorry, this is quite sudden, and would be hard to resolve'. Sure, my colleagues would bi##h about it, for a few seconds. If the request seems to absurd, they would do the bi##hing with me. And then, they would make calls. Do the papers. Meet certain people. Chase few Head of Departments. Stalk the COO's, CEO's PAs. And the things happened. All of this is due to their ability to solve problem. We could provide all kinds of system, training, platform, materials, SOP, reference. But, if our colleagues does not know how to connect the dots. Or if they are too afraid or unsure on how to resolve, to move forward. Then the team would be in trouble. Therefore, to the leaders of such team. Give assurance and confidence to your colleagues, in problem solving. Make sure they have everything they need. Especially your trust, and support. They do know what they are doing. Happy Friday 🎊🎊🎊

Unleashing leadership potential with CliftonStrengths. Had an incredible day facilitating The Young Business Leaders Network CliftonStrengths Leadership workshop at Singapore Business Federation, focused on self-awareness, strength-based leadership, emotional awareness and building confidence through strengths. It was a highly engaging session with a team of young CEOs, MDs, and Business Leaders. We delved into individual CliftonStrengths® assessment, empowering participants to discover their unique talents and leverage them to become more effective leaders. From Relator to Achiever, Ideation to Strategic and Maximizer, each leader's unique blend of strengths offers a powerful tool for driving success. By understanding and embracing their strengths, participants gained valuable insights into their leadership style and how to maximise their impact. We also explored the importance of self-awareness in building confidence and authenticity. By understanding their strengths and weaknesses, leaders can better navigate challenges, make informed decisions, and inspire their teams. It was inspiring to witness the engagement, discoveries and sharing in participants as they connected their CliftonStrengths® to their leadership roles. Here's to Strength based leadership. So leaders feel empowered, confident, and equipped to take their leadership to the next level. All the best to everyone and I look forward to seeing amazing things from these talented young leaders! #leadershipdevelopment #cliftonstrengths #selfawareness #confidence #leadershipcoaching"
