All of us would have people around us that we learn from in our lives. And people whom we in turn teach and need to be accountable to at some point - as students, working adults or parents. The better we are at relating and leading others into growth, the better we become as individuals. In this issue, I hope we can draw some lessons and wisdom from these materials that can help us cultivate values and cultures that we want in our lives and lift us up. | Create a Growth Culture, Not a Performance-Obsessed One In a competitive, complex, and volatile business environment, many C-Suite leaders are focused on how to build higher performance cultures. The irony is that building a culture focused on performance may not be the best, healthiest, or most sustainable way to fuel results. Instead, it may be more effective to focus on creating a culture of growth. | How Humility Makes Us Better, Saner Teachers The pursuit of humility, once we properly understand the term, yields better relationships and faster growth. With that said, it makes great sense that we dig into humility in our continuing pursuit of better, saner teaching. | Every Kid Deserves a Champion | Rita Pierson | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones.

National Gallery Singapore I have known Agnes since 2003. I met her at a roadshow and we became friends since then. She understands what I need and has never stop informing me when there is something suitable. If there is any financial advice I need, I will always go to her and she is always prompt to reply me. I thank her as an agent and friend | | | Lee Wei Meng. Teacher. Boy's Town Agnes was a total stranger who appeared at the right time (27 years ago) when I started my career as an engineer. She was, first as an insurance agent, then became a family friend. She was committed and sincere in doing her best to serve my needs. As time went by, I started a family. She became even closer to us and was/is a regular sight in my house, spending time with my wife & children. With the trust built throughout the years, we took up many policies from her. After 27 years, she is still the one & only agent serving my family needs. | | | Sunari. Legal Officer. Singapore Legal Service Agnes has been my agent and representative for over 20 years. In those decades, she has always been there with good advice in the course of my journey from a junior employee to management. She has provided me with willing assistance in good health and during illness. I cannot ask for more from her. Here's to many good years to my agent and friend. | | | Anna Tan. Excellson Pte Ltd. Merchandiser I got to know Agnes 25 years ago. It was a coincidence. She made a sales call on me at a time I was thinking of buying another policy while still young. After buying my first GE policy, she really followed with me, unlike others who disappeared after I purchased from them. Through the years, I referred my family members, relatives & colleagues to her. We have become friends, having overseas holidays together and meeting up regularly for our favourite Korean food. Although it has been more than 20 years, her service is still very consistent and good. That gives me a sense of trust and security. Whenever or wherever I need to consult her on any financial or insurance issue, she is there . | | | Roberto Fabbri. Set In Blue Pte Ltd. Founder & MD I have known Agnes for many years and she became a friend of mine and of my family. Courteous, prompt, and efficient, Agnes takes time to explain in detail and with clarity what she proposes as suitable for our individual objectives. Once my daughters grew up and become independent, I asked Agnes to explain to them the importance of having a financial plan and of being adequately protected. It was only natural then that Agnes became also the person of trust to my daughters. As my experience with Agnes has been consistently good and we benefitted from her advice, I have no hesitation in recommending the services of Agnes to anyone looking for a trusted person in personal insurance solutions | | | Siraj T Aholiab. Standard Chartered Bank Singapore. Global Risk Trainer "I've known Agnes for over 20 years. What started out as a professional relationship around insurance and financial planning, grew very soon into a trusted personal and family relationship. This isn't surprising as Agnes is fundamentally a genuine and caring person. My wife and I feel privileged and grateful that we can count her as someone whom we trust without any reservation." | | | | |
