In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In the last issue, we discussed how robots will change our lives in the future. It has become increasingly important for us to keep our minds on the ball, stay sharp and stay progressive. If half the jobs in 2020 are yet to be known to us, how can we prepare ourselves and our children today? To face a fast changing future, we need to first understand it. We need to try and take a peek into this future and start to embrace change.

What skills does Singapore need for the future economy?

We live in a time when roughly half of the jobs in 2020 are not yet known to us, and conversely, half of the jobs today will be extinct.

Sarifah Hasliza, Teacher

Where do I actually start? Kenneth is an amazing agent with great character and he is definitely trustworthy. He has been with us close to 20 years. From handling just my individual portfolio, to handling my whole family (of 6) insurance portfolio. He is always there whenever I needed advice. Never once did he ignore my calls/texts. He even makes home visits whenever we need to to update our policies. I’ve recommended him to my sister and cousins. They were impressed by his personalised & thorough presentation and switched to Prudential. I must mention that Kenneth is never pushy and always gives us space & time to consider his proposal.

Gladys Soon, Financial Consultant

During the short 4 months working with Kenneth, he has been an amazing mentor. Given the tough industry, Kenneth had played an integral role in getting me to find my footing. With his guidance, I managed to place a much more firm footing in here as compared to my other peers. Kenneth has always made himself available and has taken great interest in my trajectory into this industry. Under Kenneth's mentorship, I have seen growth in myself, even beyond my professional capabilities. His ardent support has me feel that it was the best decision to join Opulence to have the opportunity to be mentored by Kenneth.

Donny Wong, Business Owner

Known Kenneth since Army days and he has been in charge of my family financial plans since then. Seen him from single to 3 kids and staying in big house! But he is as humble as always. Now he runs a successful team on consultants. He is genuine and speaks from the heart on what he does.

Shawn Ng, Sales Director

Know Kenneth for many years and he handles my family insurance portfolio. He knows his work and is never pushy with us. Good service

Priscilla Chew, Senior Financial Consultant

"A leader is a person who takes a little more than his share of blame and a little less than his share of credit." Kenneth lives by this principle more than many others. I first met Kenneth, a little more than 3 years back. He came across as a straightforward and focused director. At that moment, I knew I have much more to learn from him. Being in the business for over 20 years, he has met many different kinds of individuals. He has a unique communication style, knowing that words transform emotions and lead to breakthroughs. His decisiveness carries the team, that does not mean he makes easy decisions. He makes what's right even in tough times. If one have ever engaged in a conversation with Kenneth, one must have sensed quickly his confidence and clear visions. He is fully focused on helping the team achieve their personal goals, even if it means sacrificing his time. Kenneth is a yes man to his mentees, not because he says yes to everything, but because he couldn't turn a blind eye to his team. Being a good speaker with his language fluency helped me discover that public speaking is a skill I enjoyed very much, and he is an example to follow. In my almost 3 years with Kenneth, I have enjoyed learning from him as my mentor, upgrading my skills and putting my strengths to use. He listens before he speaks, which many of us would have wanted from a leader. He has played a big role and attribution to my achievements and helped me vision who I want to be, who I could be and discovering my identity. In today's fast paced market, Kenneth is constantly looking for innovative ideas and finding the X factor. It was never a dull moment to learn new things from him. If you are looking for a leader that is no-nonsense, honest and focused on helping you achieve your goals, walk up to Kenneth and start the conversation.

Cheryl Phua, Assistant Director Civil Service

Have known Kenneth for more than 10 years as a financial advisor through a friend. He has shown genuineness and care in terms of having your interests in mind and gradually become more like a friend over the the time that we have known each other.
