A Monthly Curated Newsletter

Leadership is the act of guiding a team or individual to achieve a goal through direction and motivation -- and there is a leader in all of us. This issue contains insightful resources and pointers that touch on the various under-talked about but important aspects of leadership. I hope this inspires us to not just exercise good leadership in our daily lives as individuals and organisations, but more importantly, help us get through and thrive even in difficult times.

Build Your Reputation as a Trustworthy Leader

People’s expectations and definition of trustworthiness are broadening for leaders, and it takes a lot to gain that trust. The author offers four research-based practices for leaders to master to earn and keep the trust of others. If you hope to enjoy a career of great influence and impact, start by cultivating a trustworthy reputation.

Adam Grant on leadership, emotional intelligence, and the value of thinking like a scientist

In Adam Grant's latest book, 'Think Again: The Power of Knowing What you Don’t Know', he makes the case for greater flexibility in our views—and offers tactics for leading discussions that may help others do the same. This conversation was part of a new discussion series for McKinsey partners and clients called "Modern Leadership," which is designed to explore new dimensions of leadership with experts and leading thinkers who can help strengthen, challenge, and stretch our ability to build resilient teams and thrive in uncertain times.

I wasn’t ready to meet up with Kenji when one of our mutual friend recommended him. Back then, insurance planning wasn’t on my list and I don’t regard it of any importance. Nonetheless, i went ahead with the appointment half heartedly. Kenji keep the whole session simple, highlighted the importance of insurance and how getting myself insured is an act of a responsible adult. Kenji took on the consultative role well as he put himself in my shoes, see and think from my prospective and proposed a solution to meet my financial needs. He gave me ample time to think over before I make a decision. I’m sure you don’t often come across a insurance person who is not pushy. I’m glad Kenji is such and I never regretted meeting him. And as you can tell from the picture, we became good friends and I proudly introduced him as my insurance guru during my birthday party!

Kenji has been advising me on my insurance needs since 2005 when my original adviser decided to change career. Kenji showed me my financial profile and showed areas where I lack coverage. At first it looks really a big burden to our family's budget but his advices didn't go to waste. In 2014 I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer. Kenji meticulously looked through all my documents and guided me what to do. He worked on most of my paperwork and filed insurance claims with Prudential and my other insurers. The claim were all successful which helped me and my family bear expensive chemotherapy and operations. I am on remission now and I am sure that part of my healing was due to not worrying at all on the expenses as I was fully covered. It is one thing to insure with a reliable insurance company but most of all having a diligent, hardworking, honest and trustworthy financial adviser who is on your side. Besides all these qualities that you should look out for when engaging an adviser, you definitely need one who is prompt in attending to your request and always reply you on time on all your queries. That is Kenji Chua to me. Now all my family members are insured and being advised by Kenji on their financial needs, including our grandson!

Kenji was my buddy from back in BMT. It was only much later in life that we met up again for unknown reasons. Ever since then he has been my personal consultant in matters of not just insurance but also finance and investments. I am very thankful for knowing him and the path he has taken. Due to how things turn out, I got myself a fantastic consultant. Often candid, always knowledgeable and ever ready to assist or answer any queries i may have. It has happened more than once that i would ask questions i have asked years before and he is ready and willing to answer it again. Patiently explaining the concepts all over again. Kenji is a asset to me as well as to anyone he crosses paths with. Thank you Kenji!
