Success Stories

“I benefitted for both life and work as I was able to talk through issues including personal ones with a third party. It helps to have alternative perspectives. Talking about things during the coaching session also helped to crystallize my personal thoughts, new ideas came up and different perspectives developed”

— Emergency Physician, HOD, MOHH

“I began working with Lily shortly after moving into an executive role. With a background primarily as an individual contributor I was eager to put some focused effort into my development as a leader while also cultivating my executive presence. I couldn’t be happier with the results. Lily has been a supportive and challenging partner through a year which has thrown up constant challenges and opportunities for growth. My interactions with the C-Suite have benefited from Lily’s guidance to become truly peer-like. She has helped me strike a balance between providing scope for growth and offering sufficient coaching and mentorship to my direct reports. My understanding of my abilities, potential and ambition has blossomed in parallel. Throughout Lily has ensured that my professional journey has not diverged from my personal and family priorities.”

— Transformation Executive Director, Jones Lang Lasalle

“Lily is a professional and empathetic coach who thinks out of the box. Her coaching skills are beyond academics and are essential to boost an individual’s emotional intelligence. I benefitted from my coaching sessions with Lily.”

— Sylvia Wu, Director of Revenue, Goodwood Park Hotel, Jan 2021

“Lily enabled me to slow down and watch the emotional pitfalls I was treading through my professional life. Her coaching not only helped me to understand others but also understand myself which resulted in a better state of emotional awareness when handling complex situations at work.”

— SG, General Manager - Network Development, Daimler Commercial Vehicles South East Asia

“Right from the start of the coaching journey Lily was very focused on the identified changes the management expected to see in specific areas. Over the past 7-9 months, it was about sharing success stories and approaches to navigate through the path of change by identifying bottlenecks and thinking of effective ways. Me and my colleagues started noticing some positive shifts in my behavior (ongoing) and is helping me to focus on achieving my professional as well as personal goals.

With her rich experience and a very subtle style Lily is certainly somebody who can bring out the best in leaders of tomorrow.”

— Umal Raskar, Global Director, Business Technology at Terumo BCT

“The best coaching moment for me was really at the start when you helped me articulate my own strengths and opportunities for improvement based on what I shared about moments in my career that made me proud. That really helped to crystallise the value that I bring to the table as a leader in my field, and provided concrete ways in which I can profile my strengths without seeming to be “blowing my own trumpet”.”

— Jacqueline Chia, Deputy Dir, Enterprise Singapore, 2020

“Lily is observant, goal-oriented and has great communication skills. I have been able to establish clear goals and learned new ways to manage my time (and emotions). She has been a very engaging coach and has supported me with wise counsel in my journey to develop and grow. Thank you Lily! The journey with her was enjoyable, and to see positive changes in myself is very encouraging. I highly recommend Lily as a Coach, to anyone who is looking for wise counsel and clarity in difficult situations.”

— Sheryl Ng, Associate Director, Singtel, Jan 2021

“I recently attended the “Leading with Emotional Intelligence for First-Time Managers” course by Lily and it was an eye-opener! I have learned that EQ is so much more than just our interaction with others but it is also about our inner self. So many aspects of EQ that I have learned that will be useful for my work and personal life. Thank you Lily for all the wonderful insights you have given us!”

— Pevi Witarsa, Civil Service College, Oct 2022

“Thank you for being my facilitator and sharing a lot of knowledge with me. I appreciate your guidance on how I can further improve to build up my self-awareness. Following your instructions, I learned to pen down my success moments and my contributions. I feel that my self-esteem has slowly improved since the day when I received my EQ report. I feel amazed after writing down the areas that I have achieved at work and I feel proud of myself. Attached is the homework that I have done for myself. I hope to continue this and improve on other aspects of my self-perception.”

— Participant in Leading with EQ for First Time Managers Workshop, Civil Service College, Jan 2022

“It has been a real pleasure having Lily work with me on my leadership development journey, the experience has been fruitfully reflective and thoughtful, and also positive and energizing. Lily is very patient and observant, and has used her great coaching skills to help me find my own answers to achieve breakthroughs and also shared with me some useful tools and practices to enable me to not just sustain performance over the long haul but also find my own personal purpose and satisfaction in the process.”

— Magdalene Hsia, Legal Services-Region ASEAN, Bosche, 2022

“Lily’s experience and expertise in the subject were evident when she was able to contextualize the objectives of our new mentoring program to the needs of the audience. The very good evaluation feedback received from the very discerning and critical group of highly intelligent participants tells of the quality of Lily’s offerings. ”

— Linus Mok, Learning & Development, A*Star, 2018

On Effective Communication and Trust Building Skills for Mentoring

“I am grateful to have attended your course as it really made me more aware of my own mental state and the challenges that I needed to overcome, particularly my low self-regard and tendency to be hard on myself. In the one-to-one session, you had asked me to do a "homework" and list down some of my sparkling moments and the strengths that contributed to them. That was helpful. Since then, I also made a conscious effort to congratulate myself for what I have achieved each day instead of thinking about what I have yet to do, and it really helps to set my mood in a more positive way. I feel that I have made improvements recently as I am able to remain calm and not so frazzled even though the workload is overwhelming. That in turn helps me to think clearer as well. You have made a positive difference in my life.”

— Participant in Leading with EQ for First Time Managers Workshop, Civil Service College, April 2023

“Lily is an excellent coach who is personable, professional and passionate. We have worked together on various project & clients, and the feedback is always consistently great about her ability to help coachees unlock their potential and find their paths to success. If I were to count the number of positive comments and compliments for Lily, I will need a super computer! Lily is also an invaluable coach supervisor for me. As a professional coach, I need to have a safe and nurturing space to share my vulnerabilities and be able to learn, develop and grow. Whenever I have my supervision sessions with Lily, I am able to get deep insights into what I am doing, and how I can get better. If any coach needs a supervisor, look no further. Talk to Lily. She is good!”

— Danny Lee, Solution-Focused Coach and Founder of Elevate Team, Oct 2023

“I've recently attended a leadership coaching workshop facilitated by Lily. It was a refreshing time of learning and reflection as I've learnt much from the useful Solution-focused coaching framework to help me guide others to discover solutions for themselves and to build on their strengths rather than weaknesses.

Lily was very skilled in guiding me and asking questions in a non-judgemental way. The entire course was packed with practical tools and simple concepts and I've definitely picked up many new things. Thank you Lily for facilitating a great workshop!”
