On Teaching, Learning & Growth

In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

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.

Eng Kiat (Consultant)

Ben has been an awesome advisor! For the entire recommendation process, he goes through everything in a clear and systematic way. Running pass every detail to ensure that you are well-informed about your policies. Ben puts in the effort to understand my situation - from my financial goals to my views on health protection - without imposing his own beliefs and judgement. I'm genuinely satisfied with how the plans recommended truly fits my bill. 10/10 would recommend!

Jiang Feng (IT Consultant)

When I first graduated from University, I was trying to find out ways to manage my finances better as well as being uncertain about what insurance was about. Ben was able to provide a clear overview as well as suitable recommendations that met my needs. I felt it is very beneficial for a young professional like myself.

Zhaomin (Engineer)

Benji came to me with a refreshing perspective on financial planning. I like how he explains the 'What' & 'Whys' (this is important) instead of going straight to set financial goals and sell the products. I also liked and enjoyed my sessions with Benji because there is no hard-selling, and that made me really comfortable in all the meetings. To you who is looking for just a listening ear, you should hear Benji out :D And good luck with your financial journey with Benji! ;)

Cheng Hock (Procurement Engineer)

Benjamin is a humble and sincere agent; Well-informed in his trade & giving sound advise without being pushy. That is a big plus point in dealing with an insurance agent. Aside from that, Benjamin is always ready to lend a listening ear and is a patient guy. Will strongly recommend him to other friends and associates. Keep up the good work!

Wan Wei (Research Engineer)

I am writing this testimonial to recommend Ben as a financial advisor. I got to know Ben through my previous job, and he has been a good friend who is patient and sincere. Initially, I have no idea what good financial planning is, until I met Ben. He went the extra mile to provide details and explanation for the various policies available. He helps me to analyze my current financial status so that the best plan can be recommended. It is really nice to work with a financial adviser who always put the needs and preferences of his clients first. Thank you so much for being an incredible advisor and listener! From helping me to put things into perspective to preparing me for great things in the future. I have no doubt in recommending Ben to any of my friends and family.

Jin Xing (Executive)

Ben approached me on several occasions and went through with me about my current coverage and what could be improved on. After listening, I realized that I might need additional hospital coverage as I do not have any rider in place due to the plan being passed down by my parents. Upon looking up the recommendation plan proposed, I found that it satisfy my needs better and hence decided to take it up. Ben has been very patient and gave me time to think it through. Would definitely recommend to my friends!
