A Monthly Curated Newsletter

As humans, we often like to think we're right, even when we can be wrong at times. Many of us have the unconscious tendency to seek information that support our existing beliefs & disregard or undermine those that do not match ours. But doing so without awareness or questioning can have adverse effects in the way we think, make decisions & live our lives. Today, I'd like to share with you some potential consequences of confirmation bias & what we can do about them.

Transport Service Provider

Hi Everyone, I personally do not believe in Insurance all my life until my wife was diagnosed with rare lung cancer stage IV in 2019. My late wife approached Emily to complain about severe backache. Emily arranged an orthopedic doctor to see her. Emily also took the time to fetch her to the doctor and stayed with her to accompany her the whole day. She also fetched her from chemo on days when I was busy with my work. Which agent would do that? Only Emily would do it! Not only Emily took care of my wife’s hospitalization claims, but she also took care of my wife spirituality. My wife was called home to the Lord after almost 2 years of fight with cancer. Emily also helped me process claims from other Insurers too. Emily has become my family member too. Recently, she also helped my maid Jiabao and accompanied her to SGH and private doctor to check on her health issue. Thanks Emily with gratitude! Talk to her and get yourself protected. I too, have just got my overdue hospitalization policies which she approached me in 2010. If not for Emily’s help, I won’t know how to pay off my wife’s treatment bills which amount to 6 figures.

Financial Consultant, Prudential

Hi Everyone, My director, Emily, is a dedicated and heartwarming superior. She is genuine in helping her agents and does it wholeheartedly without complains. Be it underwriting status or claims, just a word from us and she will go all out to seek answers for our queries. Emily’s vast experience in this industry makes her a great mentor to her agents. Her sincerity coupled with the amount & depth of attention that she give her clients are valuable traits that she passed down to us. Because of her strong emphasis on servicing, we naturally strive to be responsible consultants for our clients. Our job is not always smooth sailing as we have to constantly deal with rejections and sometimes difficult clients. However, with a supportive team and passionate leader, work becomes much more enjoyable!

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 also provide us with courses to help us with upskilling our knowledge and improving our skills.

Business Development, Digital Dream

Hi Everyone, Emily has been providing us with tip-top and excellent service throughout the many years that she has been our insurance agent. Her quick response and professional advice has always been appreciated by my wife and I as well as our family. Emily's extensive knowledge and experience in the financial planning/insurance industry is of great importance to us as she provides sound advice for our insurance requirements. Through the many years, we have become more than agent/client. We are close family friends now.

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.

Peter Teo
Financial Services Manager, Prudential

Hi Everyone, Emily has been there with me since the beginning. Till date I am already 15 years in the career, thus we have worked with each other for a long time. She has always inspired me with her generosity, letting me realized there is so much more in giving than taking. This attribute has helped me progress well in this career and thus I will say Emily has been an integral part in my growth. She has always been frank with the people she deals with and that helps a lot in shaping many of us who are under her watch. On a personal note, she cares about my family as well and not just the career and I appreciate a lot for this caring side of her. Looking forward to future interactions with Emily in the years ahead. Thanks Emily for being there for me all this while :)
