CliftonStrengths Team Communication Workshop Hong Kong

Communication is a two way street. 

In a facilitation session, communication takes place between the facilitator and the participants. 

Sometimes there is great chemistry. Some participants energize the facilitator. Some drain. 

📷: Flew in from Singapore to Hong Kong, this was a CliftonStrengths Team Communication Full Day session with a regional team. Participants were from Hong Kong, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia and China. 

Through the day, I remained highly energized and motivated.

There was great chemistry. There were lots of good natured banter and laughter. I thoroughly enjoyed the conversations.

▶ We covered basic strengths fundamentals 

▶ We moved to learning and practicing foundational elements needed for great communication and teamwork

▶ We covered blindspots that often lead to conflicts and misunderstandings 

▶ We practice “catching people doing right” using a simple and effective tool

CliftonStrengths for Managers - Coaching Skills Workshop

Finished a coaching skills workshop designed to help a group of managers increase their abilities to coach their staff. The managers all had their CliftonStrengths Profiles as well. The aim was not just to learn coaching skills. Additionally, the design was to enable each person to see how they could use their talent themes to do coaching.

The workshop focused on 3 coaching tools to help the managers deal with different scenarios:
1. Growing and developing high performers
2. Difficult Conversations with low performers
3. Performance review conversations

Glad that the coaching workshop went very well.

Leadership Development Program - Coaching Skills for Emerging Leaders

As more and more organizations adopt a competency-driven growth model, coaching skills is seen more as a key competency required for managers.

Finished another leadership development program focusing on coaching skills for emerging leaders. This was the last run for 2024. There were participants from Australia, Indonesia, Thailand, China, India, Malaysia and Singapore.

We did a couple of role plays to help bring the coaching skills alive. We also did some leadership labs to help the leaders realize how they show show up during highly stressful and dynamic situations and grow in their self-awareness.

Overall, it was a great partnership with Damien to bring the leadership lessons to life!

Emerging Leaders Program - Coaching Skills & Leadership Development

I danced with the participants! 🕺

This was how I ended the day after facilitating the last day of a four days leadershipdevelopment program last week.

Dinner by the sea. Lots of laughter, conversations and dancing!

It was a blast.💥

Often, we as facilitators might choose to disconnect from the participants after the program ended (mostly because we are too tired).

This time, I intentionally chose to stay after the program to connect with the participants. Many would be flying back to their home countries.

And I’m glad that the participants open up and invited me into their space. We chatted about leadership lessons, challenges in organizational leadership, hashtag#coaching and parenting.

This wasn’t a StrengthsFinder program.

Instead, I’m one of the two themeweavers on the last day. Our job is to help participants internalize and practice all the content they have picked up from the program.

This was the second last run of the program for the year. Looking forward to the last run!

📷: Sorry. No photos of me dancing with them.

CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) Team Workshop - Strategy & Transformation Office

Had the privilege to facilitate a CliftonStrengths Team Workshop for the Strategy and Transformation Team from Prudential Singapore.

Workshop was designed to give more time for people to understand their dominant talent themes and to connect the themes to their work. The workshop also give space for each person to understand different working and communication styles, including that of the Team Leader.

Had Yeang Cherng with me as an observer. Took the chance and got him to share how he was able to lead three companies, Kingmaker Consultancy, Amplitude Asia and StrengthsTransform and successfully build a strengths based culture within the team.

It was a wonderful way to end the week! Very grateful!

CliftonStrengths (StrengthsFinder) Team Building Workshop for Engineers

Joined CliftonStrengths coaches Poh Yeang Cherng and Loh Wen Wei to deliver a full day team building program for a group of engineers.

Very proud to be part of the StrengthsTransform team. It was the first time and it was a fun filled day indeed. There were so much laughter around the room.

This was a follow up workshop after we had done a session for the leadership team. We believe that the partnership will continue to strengthen. Looking forward to more of such workshop and partnerships in the coming year.
