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.

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.

Hi Everyone, Auntie Emily has been and will continue to be my go-to insurance agent, as her passion and sincerity in taking care of our financial future shines through her work, she goes the extra mile and ensures that we truly understand the plans that we chose to participate in, whilst also catering specialised plans for different members of our family. Apart from being an insurance agent, Auntie Emily continually exposes us to different career pathways through attending the events that she recommended, and also gives us advice beyond that expected from the usual insurance agent. She is the embodiment of service from the heart and will definitely brighten your life! Dear Auntie Emily, I am deeply grateful for the advice and opportunities that you have extended to me and my family, thank you very much for being a shining torch along our journey!

Ong Kok Fong
Teacher, Ministry Of Education

Hi All, Emily is not just my insurance agent. She is a wonderful friend who helped me and my family by rendering her help to us as our most needy time. She analysed the existing policy that we are holding and would recommend what we need to us. My greatest appreciation from her came when my mother was ill. Emily helped my family and I so much. From ferrying my mother to treatments, to lending us her car for our usage when she’s out of town. I always asked myself, which insurance agent would do that? After my mother passed on, she helped us with the process to file for claims and such. Not just for the claims to her company but other insurance companies as well. We would be lost without her careful guidance. Apart from being my insurance , she had also helped to monitor the funds I had, ensuring that I would not suffer any losses. Emily is not an agent who goes to her clients for business purposes only. She wants the best for her clients within their comfortable budget. She is not someone who pushes for business for her own sales volume. she would be the first person available when the need arises. Emily is a very caring, she would do all she could to help anyone in need. Knowing that life is tough for me as a single mother, she often checks on me to make sure I m well. When she knows my children want to be exposed to the financial consultant field, she immediately offer to take them in and enroll them in any available platform. I’m so grateful to have Emily as my one and only trusted agent and my personal friend.

Janice Sam

Hi Everyone, Emily is a leader who is willing to go the extra mile to support us with claims, underwriting, and new businesses. She would invite other successful colleagues to give us inspiration and encouragement for our career here at Prudential. She would also invite other experts on other expertise such as investment to keep us abreast of the current market outlook. She would also provide us with courses to help us with upskilling our knowledge and improving our skills.

Jeremy and Catharine Lim
Scientist & Homemaker

Hi Everyone, Emily has served our parents faithfully ever since she started her career in this industry more than 30 years ago. We have been privileged to be under her care for the past few years. We have come across and been served by our fair share of 'financial consultants'. Emily really stands out with her honest sincerity and wealth of experience. She advises with our best interests at heart, prioritizing our needs rather than her personal agenda. As a veteran in the industry, we appreciate that she continues to keep up with the trends and competition - so her advice remains relevant to our changing needs. Her after-sales service is equally stellar and timely, often involving her going above and beyond what is required. A simple and recent example would be when she found out we were down with Covid. Emily immediately arranged to bring food, fresh coconuts and herbal medicines personally to our doorstep. Truly, Emily is more like a wise friend with practical advice we can turn to than a mere financial consultant going through the motions.

Hi Everyone, I have a very good relationship with Emily. Her ever-ready helpful, kind & positive attitude has always provided me & my families’ members with her First Class service. I have decided to engage Emily as my financial planner cause I have witnessed how she will always go thru the extra-mile to assist all of my other families members especially from being there with them during those final moments till processing the claims. I truly appreciate the speed all my claims were processed so far especially when I had a fracture 3 years ago. Not forgetting the off-&-on TCM treatment claims for my lower back injury, incurred from a fall at home too. She also helped me with my travel baggage claims when my luggage was damaged at the airport on one of my holiday trips couple of years ago. Hence I strongly recommend Emily for your financial planning as she has me & my family best interest at heart.
