Corporate Lunchtime Grooming Talk: Leeden Limited
Today’s my special billed two-in-one workshop day as Leeden Limited is my first stop under the corporate lunchtime grooming talk. Leeden Limited, tucked away in Jurong, is one of Asia’s leading welding, gas and safety integration company. Entering the training room on the second floor via the cargo lift, it now hardly came as any surprise to me to see how well converted the offices were. From the outside, the nondescript white buildings could have been mistaken as warehouses. But step inside and you will be blown away by the pristine, neat and typical office environment of cubicles and offices, reminiscent …
Corporate Lunchtime Grooming Talk: California Fitness
Arriving at the second stop of the Corporate Grooming Talk Series for today brings a familiar smile to my face as the name of the corporate client reads California Fitness. But don’t get me wrong as I’m not here for a workout. Rather it’s to give the staff a grooming talk. As I stood in the front waiting to be introduced, I recognised a familiar face in the audience who also instinctively remembered my looks among the thousands of members. Hahaha… Having had their lunch before I arrived, all were only too happy and eager to sit in the training room to learn …
Corporate Lunchtime Grooming Talk: Lenovo Singapore
As an ex-employee, I can fully understand the euphoria that Friday brings to everyone in the office. Just ask the people at Lenovo Singapore. Dressed in perhaps their most comfortable as it’s dress-down casual Friday, the staff gathered here for the the corporate lunchtime grooming talk series were truly relaxed and smiling the very moment I started. Perhaps it had to do with the Friday heralding the weekend mood. Or perhaps the staff were just glad to be away from their cubicles and enjoying one another’s company in the bright, airy and cheery pantry! This for the record must rank …
Corporate Lunchtime Grooming Talk: Johnson Controls
In the business of building efficiency, automotive experience and power solutions, Johnson Controls has certainly come a long way since its inception 125 years ago when the founder, Warren Johnson invented the thermostat in 1885. Back then, an industry focused on energy efficiency and other innovations was certainly unheard of. But in modern times like now, these innovations have since become the essential building blocks to the modern world in which we live, work and travel. And here I am today at Johnson Controls to share with the staff tips on how to look good. It’s always heartening to see …
Corporate Grooming Talk For United Engineers
In the vast and grand-looking auditorium which I was told could sit up to 2000, I welcomed 50+ participants from United Engineers Limited. Perhaps best known for its UE Square building along River Valley Road, United Engineers Limited is more than just involved in construction. It is also involved in property, retail management, facility management, hospitality and environmental engineering. It’s a good mixture of both genders as normally, men will steer clear of a grooming talk or workshop. But today, judging from the number of males in the room, it does make sense to say that more men have now …
Corporate Grooming Talk: Norvatis Singapore
With Citibank as a new business partner and exploring a new building that is the Mapletree Business City, I’m off to Norvatis to share with approximately 60 employees who signed up for this teatime talk titled ‘Citi at Work – Corporate Grooming Talk’. To me, the numbers are immaterial – whether it is 1 participant or 100 participants, the show will still go on. The only difference is that with more people, you can feel the energy and buzz in the room when the participants discuss and share ideas. It is really infectious in a positive sense. After the brief introduction by …
Ladies Grooming Workshop For PAP Community Foundation – Pasir Ris West Education Centre
I value each and every opportunity given to me. Never one to rest on my laurels, I expect more from myself than anyone else. That’s why preparing and rehearsing for every workshop is of utmost importance. This is even more pertinent when I knew I would be training close to 100 ladies today from the PAP Community Foundation – Pasir Ris West Education Centre. Walking into the huge function room, I was warmly welcomed by the smiles and applause from the ladies who were patiently awaiting my arrival in ten separate tables of ten each. With a rousing welcome like …
Corporate Grooming Workshop For Civil Servants At Civil Service Club
Every workshop brings with it new perspectives as it means making a difference in the lives of others. Today is no different as I bring one of my signature grooming workshops “Create A First Impression That Lasts” to the Civil Service Club. While the recently renovated Civil Service Club at Tessensohn Road beckons with its new glass wing, it also holds warm memories for all the participants in today’s workshop as I believe this is not the first time they are coming to this sanctuary tucked just a few minutes away from the hustle and bustle of the city to rejuvenate, learn …
Corporate Grooming Talk For UniSIM
It’s a topic which I have spoken for hundreds of hours and I’m perfectly comfortable talking about it. More importantly, it never fails to stir me each time I stand in front of an audience. Likewise, today at UniSIM (SIM University), the feelings of excitement and ebullience continue to work their magic in a familiar surrounding 🙂 For those of you who have been reading my blog since its inception, you would have remembered that my first public speaking gig was by invitation of SIM way back in Sep 2008. Therefore, speaking here at UniSIM, otherwise known as the working …
Corporate Grooming Talks For Keppel FELS
And the completion of today’s corporate grooming talk at Keppel FELS marks the third run of this series. Originally, it was meant to be just one grooming talk for the staff. But owing to overwhelming response, HR requested me to do two more runs of it. Thank you everyone for your enthusiasm. I guess word must have gotten round Keppel FELS that spending one hour at lunchtime with me was well worth the investment. Forming an orderly queue to register their names, the crowd filed in on time. But I must say some were turned away disappointedly as they didn’t RSVP prior …
