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.

We were colleagues when Jerry was working at MOE.
I have been with Jerry since he first started out in the insurance industry. That is more than 15 years ago. I can vouch that he will explain all the important details of the policies to his clients. You can ask anything and everything, he will answer. His patience is tremendous. Jerry advocates that protection and savings policies are of outmost importance in building up your insurance portfolio. If you are not sure or do not understand the clauses in the policies, please ask. In terms of making claims, he will help you through. Definitely a highly recommended and trusted financial advisor!
I am happy with all the advice he has given me all these years with respect to insurance policies. You are in safe hands. After so many years, we’re family.
Jerry bukan hanya perunding kewangan saya, beliau adalah rakan saya yang boleh dipercayai. Saya telah berkawan dengan Jerry lebih dari 15 tahun. Kami adalah rakan sekerja semasa Jerry bekerja sebagai seorang guru di MOE.
Saya telah membeli polisi insuran dari Jerry sejak dia bermula di industry insuran lebih 15 tahun dahulu.

Saya banyak berterima kasih dengan Jerry kerana selama ini, beliau banyak memberi nasihat yang baik sebelum saya membeli polisi insuran. Anda berada di tangan yang selamat. Sekian lama, kami adalah sekeluarga. | | | Royden Lim (Year 2 AIA FSC, Year 2 SUSS Undergraduate) Maybe I should start by sharing how I met Jerry before I joined him as an FSC. Jerry has been with my family and our family business for as long as I can remember. He has literally seen me grow up through my various stages of life. But it took an unfortunate series of events that really led me to realise the importance of financial planning and insurance, and got me thinking about how to better manage my own. So who better to find than Jerry? And ever since then, things have gotten for the better. To have a mentor that actively makes time for his team is a difficult find - not to mention that Jerry himself is extremely busy. From weekly training sessions to suddenly having to meet someone the next day, Jerry has always put in his 110% effort in making sure that we are constantly learning. It doesn’t matter whether it’s 11 am or 11 pm, you can always contact him. Couldn’t ask for more! | | | Matthew (MOE Educator) & Rebecca (Full-time tutor) Jerry was my (Rebecca) classmate in university and has always come across as a warm and helpful friend.
Today, also as our financial advisor, he continues to give timely advice and a listening ear to our concerns. There were instances where we consulted him and his unassuming nature and objective perspective encouraged us greatly in our decision making process.
We are thankful that our paths have crossed and we would not hesitate to recommend him to family and friends who are in search of a trusted and reliable advisor.
Thumbs up for Jerry! | | | Danial Loke (Year 3 AIA FSC, Year 3 SUSS Undergraduate) Jerry is a leader that leads by example. Not only is he generous with the knowledge that he possesses, his team is his priority which is really assuring. When we need guidance during JFW, he never fails to be there. | | | Yin Peng (Lazada, Vice President) I was introduced to Jerry by his wife 8 years ago. Back then, I was quite skeptical about financial advisor. However Jerry won me over with his professionalism, dedication and expertise.
Today, Jerry is my go-to person for all sorts of issues. He is a very warm and caring person. He had helped me solve / advise me on issues where I could not make up my mind or I have doubts on.
I am so glad that our path crossed and I am very grateful to have him as a friend! I would not hesitate to recommend him to my friends who are in need of financial advice! | | | Chris Maik (MOE Educator) & SiQi (Homemaker) Jerry is much more than just our financial advisor. Ever ready to meet with a friendly smile, Jerry understands our concerns and constraints, and regularly keeps in touch to find out if we need to make adjustments as we go though the different phases of our family life. Friends of ours have got to know Jerry through us and they all have positive experiences with him too! His vast knowledge and experience in almost all things Singaporean adults go through makes Jerry a great person to ask advice and recommendations from. Thank you! | | | | |
