The Straight Path From School to the Tesseract Maze
Do you remember those years from school to university? We all followed a structured path—study, exam, repeat. The only difference was which school we went to or what subjects we picked. Then came graduation, and suddenly, we were thrown into the tesseract of time and space—a chaotic maze of decisions with no clear guides.
Unlike school, there were no teachers or mentors to map out the way forward. Instead, we had to navigate choices: career vs. relationships, fate vs. opportunity, competition vs. collaboration, power vs. values.
My First Taste of Success Before Age 30!
In my early career, I was a high achiever. By 26, I’d earned two master’s degrees, been headhunted, bought my first property, spoke at conferences, won a Guinness book of records, launched a business, and sold it—all before 30.
The glamour of MTV called and I jumped back into the corporate grind, launching MTV Sponsorship Marketing across Asia. And then a Swiss start-up that almost listed. And then Big Blue.
It Gets More Difficult The Higher You Go!
The higher I climbed, the steeper and trickier the ladder became. Larger portfolios, fiercer competition, and fewer clear paths forward. As an entrepreneurial “wild duck,” I found creative ways to thrive amidst challenges. But I also saw the glaring gaps in career navigation—gaps that left even the brightest professionals fumbling.
Being in the management or leadership development program didn't help as you were just part of a selected list of potential talented leaders being shuffled around and a name on the bench to be in succession to the next more senior role.
With global competition at our door step, without a savvy career strategy, many will just not cut it!
It's Time For The Career Accelerator!
That’s when I decided: I wanted to be the guide I never had.
I took 30 years of C-suite and entrepreneurial experience and created the Career Accelerator Program. I’ve tested it with 500+ leaders across 10 industries, delivering ground-breaking results.
3 Steps To Kick Start!
💡 Here are 3 steps to kickstart your career acceleration:
1️⃣ Reflect on your career progress. Could you have moved faster and gone further if you had the right strategies then?
2️⃣ Identify obstacles. What’s standing in your way of achieving the role you truly want?
3️⃣ Anticipate to achieve. How could you anticipate the challenges and how can you build your growth?
"Success is not a mystery; it’s a map. Find your compass, and let’s start navigating together." Anne Phey
