Leadership tip: Embracing vulnerability šŸ¤

There's often this belief that leaders should always have it all together. But the truth is - your team already senses when you're struggling. The real strength lies in being open about it. During a high-pressure project, I told my team, I don't have all the answers and I'll need your support here.

And you know what happened?

The room shifted. Ideas flowed. Trust deepened.⚔

Vulnerability isn't a weakness. It's what makes leadership human. It builds connection, trust, and gives others the confidence to step up.

People don't expect perfection - they value authenticity.

Lead with honesty. The results might surprise you.

I would love to hear how you've embraced vulnerability in your leadership journey šŸ‘‡

Proud to have completed another successful run of our Signature Small Steps to Big Changes program with a leading healthcare institution.

It’s been a privilege to partner with them in driving meaningful change and supporting their ambitious 5-year vision.

At Deep Impact Singapore, we believe that transformation doesn’t end when the training does.

We stay committed to the journey, helping participants apply actionable strategies to their real-world challenges, ensuring lasting results and sustainable progress.

It’s not just about training; it’s about making change happen.

This week, I celebrated a small win in my leadership journey. It wasn't anything monumental, but it made a real difference. I helped a team member gain clarity on a project that had been weighing them down, and seeing the relief on her face reminded me that even small steps can have a huge impact.

Small wins matter because they're doable and measurable. Over time, these small steps lead to significant growth. It's these moments that, when added together, move us forward and create lasting change.ā˜˜ļø

What small win have you celebrated this week that made an impact on your leadership journey? šŸ¤”

I've worked with many large organisations to lead change to deliver better business results. I often see posters hanging on the walls, displaying the values of their company.

But posters don't change a company's culture-your daily actions will. šŸŽÆ

As leaders, we set the bar. We can either create a culture of trust, innovation, and respect, or we can allow complacency and negativity to take root. šŸ’¬

Every day, we make choices: What behaviours do we tolerate? What actions do we reward?

It's these small, daily decisions that truly define your organisational culture.

If you're rewarding effort, collaboration and results, your team will follow suit.

But if toxic behaviours go unchecked, they'll become the norm. āš–ļø

Your results are directly proportional to how you are paying attention to your organisational culture.

ā€œTalk results. Speak their language. Make change happen.ā€

That was one of the key insights I shared in my recent keynote—and it sparked a powerful conversation with Annie Bordeleau, Co-President of Solution Focused in Organisations (SFiO).

In our video interview, we explored how to scale solution-focused approaches in large organisations—without losing sight of what truly matters: business outcomes.

Too often, well-intentioned interventions fail to stick because they don’t speak the language of senior leadership.

But when we focus on what leaders care most about—tangible results, real progress, and practical outcomes—we shift the conversation from theory to transformation.

This is what I’ve been helping organisations achieve:
Real change that delivers real value.

šŸ’” How do you get the attention of Senior Leaders?

This is exactly what I presented in the recent SOLWorld Conference 2025 held at Mechelen, Belgium, in front of a group of coaches, industry leaders and solution-focused practitioners.

I introduced our proprietary 5Ds model, a structured approach designed to align training interventions with tangible business outcomes.

To us at Deep Impact Singapore, we have learnt that Senior Leaders pay attention to business results and not activity.

If you are able to link what you have said to deliver on clear business results, you certainly got their attention.

Here's a brief overview:

Discuss Business Needs: Identify the specific business results that matter most to the organisation.

Define Leadership Involvement: Speak to leaders on what they need to do to create the momentum and support it once it gets started.

Deliver Immersive Experience: Create training interventions effectively within the organisational context.

Determine Focused Action: Participants create practical action plans they can implement immediately, identifying specific steps that will draw them closer to their business results.

Document Sustainable Change: Measure and record the outcomes to assess impact and inform future actions.

When we start with their desired outcomes—be it performance, culture, or collaboration—the interventions align, engagement rises and momentum builds. It’s not just theory. It’s a transformation with purpose.

Thank you, , for the space to connect, share and challenge the way we think about change.

šŸŽ¤ When speakers stop speaking... where do we go to grow?

Behind every keynote and standing ovation is a speaker who's still learning, still reflecting, and still reaching for the next level.

That’s why I attended the APSS Convention – Amplify Imagination 2025 — a rare space where we put down the mic and open our minds.

Even after 18 years in business, I returned with 23 digital pages of notes. šŸ“±šŸ“

Yes, I’m still learning — because growth doesn’t end, no matter how long you've been in the game.

Here are a few insights that truly resonated with me:

1ļøāƒ£ You can't control your emotions but you can control your reactions- Nir Eyal.

2ļøāƒ£ Plan your time, not just the outcomes. Structure creates freedom. ā³

3ļøāƒ£ AhaSlides is a fantastic alternative to Mentimeter. šŸ‘©ā€šŸ«

4ļøāƒ£ If key clients don’t see you, you’re invisible. šŸ‘€- Stephen Krempl

5ļøāƒ£ If you’re not memorable, you’re forgettable. 🧠

6ļøāƒ£ AI agents speaking to other AI agents… The future is now. šŸ¤–

7ļøāƒ£ You can’t complain about results you are not getting from the work you are not putting in- Larry Long Jr. šŸ’Ŗ

8ļøāƒ£ It’s not who you know — it’s who knows and trusts you. šŸ¤

9ļøāƒ£ You can’t play tomorrow’s game with yesterday’s rules. šŸ•¹ļø

šŸ”Ÿ Build your offering around your brand promise — or risk becoming irrelevant. šŸŽÆ

Being in a room filled with curious, generous minds reminded me: no matter how experienced we are, we’re all still becoming a better version of ourselves 🌱.

What if you had the opportunity to present your ideas on large-scale organisational change šŸŒāœØ in front of an international audience in Europe?

I'm thrilled to share that this May, I’ll be travelling to Belgium šŸ‡§šŸ‡Ŗ to speak at — the world’s leading gathering of solution-focused practitioners! šŸ™Œ

At this international conference, I will be presenting how we have successfully applied the Solution Focused Approach šŸ’” to drive meaningful change across large organisations — helping teams shift mindsets, overcome inertia and create sustainable results. 🌱

SOLWorld brings together a global community of inspiring speakers who are passionate about evolving the fields of:

Organisational Change šŸ”„
Coaching and Leadership šŸ§‘ā€šŸ’¼
Workplace Wellbeing šŸ’¬
Corporate Culture Transformation šŸ¢

It’s not just a conference — it’s a vibrant exchange of real-world ideas, bold practices, and innovative approaches that are shaping the future of how we lead and support change. šŸš€

I’m truly looking forward to learning from brilliant minds across the world 🌐, connecting with fellow changemakers šŸ¤, and contributing to this growing global movement. 🌟

If you’ll be there too, I would love to meet and exchange ideas! 😊

Healthcare has always been deeply personal to me. My mom dedicated 50 years of her life to nursing—her first and last job.

Her final appointment was as a sister handling permanent night shifts at Kadang Kerbau Hospital, Singapore’s largest Women's and Children's Hospital.

Being the son of a nurse was not easy.

There were days when I barely saw her and others when I couldn’t even talk to her because she was too exhausted after a night shift.

I can still recall how, after a long night, she wouldn’t embrace me right away.

Instead, she would insist on a shower first, as healthcare workers must always be cautious about what they bring home (eg. potential viruses).

I remember hearing her stories about handling patients, collaborating with doctors and even dealing with the toughest moments, like deceased patients.

And now, here I am, working alongside senior leaders in the healthcare industry.

It’s an incredible privilege to support and work with leaders who are constantly navigating change to improve patient experiences and care.

I am thankful to be training such passionate individuals who put their heart and soul into their work, ensuring better outcomes for those who need it the most.

šŸš€ This is where I feel that I can partner with them to drive impactful change!

My action figure has arrived—and I’m honestly a little emotional about it.

Every now and then, I give myself permission to play, to imagine, and to explore what’s possible with new technology. This entire image? Created with the help of ChatGPT-4o.

It’s more than just a toy.

It’s a reminder: creativity and curiosity aren’t just for kids—they’re powerful tools for leaders, dreamers and changemakers.

When was the last time you allowed yourself to explore, create, or try something new, just for the fun of it?

šŸš€ Start small. Try out a new tool. Let yourself dream. You never know what you might build.

šŸ‘‡ I’d love to hear—what’s something creative or tech-related you’ve explored recently? Or… what’s stopping you?
