Fantastic time with a group of creatives!
We talked about strengths as leaders. We explored how strengths can be powerful motivations for our work and how strengths is a powerful lens for communication.
We also did some work on trust and how trust is connected to strengths. Looking forward to part 2
Did another run of CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) program for families and couples.
Families and marriages are the bedrock of our society so seeing the impact gives me great joy.
It was another very fulfilling time of seeing parents and children and spouses relating to each other, strengthening their relationships and bonds through the strengths and values conversations.
Enriching and fruitful time with leaders who are so eager to learn! Facilitated the last day of a four days leadership development program last week. My role was to help each leader practice embodying what they have learnt from the first three days. The leaders had finished learning about their strengths, picked up energy management, influencing skills, coaching skills and much more.
The belief is that leadership is more about how one shows up daily. So the goal was for each person to integrate all their learnings into simulated experiences.
We had leadership labs and role plays. There were so much learning and insights as the leaders learn to observe themselves from the practices.
I had leaders from Singapore, Malayisa, Indonesia, Thailand, China, India, Papua New Guinea and Australia.
It was a blast and treat for me.π₯
Even though this wasnβt a StrengthsFinder program. I enjoyed the coaching bit, encouraging these leaders by sharing my observations and feedback so that they can be sharpened and more aware.
This is the first run of the program that I am doing for the year. Looking forward to the next few runs!

Spent a whole morning together with an amazing team bringing StrengthsFinder to a group of Secondary three students from School of Science and Technology. There were 10 of us and each one was assigned a class to facilitate.
It was a purposeful time spent. The students were very engaged and I was glad to be able to share what I am passionate about. Thankful to be back in the school scene impacting the lives of youth in Singapore.
As a firm believer that families and marriages are the bedrock of our society, I had the privilege of facilitating a CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) program for families and couples from Church of Our Saviour.
It was a very fulfilling time of seeing parents and children and spouses relating to each other, strengthening their relationships and bonds through the strengths and values conversations.

Wen Wei Loh and I have many influencing strengths in common. We were facilitating a cliftonstrengths team building workshop together for over 50pax.
Yet, what stood out were the unique strengths that we bring.
Wen Wei is Mr Woo, Includer and Positivity. I am Mr Belief, Command and Self-Assurance.
We both had Communication, Maximizer, Strategic and Ideation.
He brings light-heartedness and warmth through his stories and engagement.
I bring clarity by talking about the hidden thoughts, unspoken rules and gunning for the heart of the matter.
You can imagine the Yin and YangβοΈ
We had a blast π₯
While results can certainly be improved, opportunities lost would not be recovered. Iβm glad we chose to pair up despite a short runway.
Iβm convinced 10 years ago. And Iβm still convinced now.
β Leveraging Talents is fundamentally different from leveraging work experience, knowledge and skills.
The X factor π₯that one has can NEVER be replicated by another.
β Only by leveraging through #strengthspartnership that we can enjoy each otherβs X factor π₯ and the power we uniquely bring.
