On Teaching, Learning & Growth

In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

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.

Thaslim (Education Researcher)

You were very patient and followed through on the initial reason I had sought your assistance and expertise, to look for a CI plan for my cousin. However, did not move forward. And when I had expressed desire to take up another plan, you were resourceful and called in someone who would be able to service my needs better. That is very honest of you instead, of trying to sell me something that you do not have sufficient knowledge on (:

Teresa Ng

Kayla is authentic(reliable, trustworthy and always the same person), full of Zeal and Empathetic. She showed me usually how people of my age group are planning and also personalised a portfolio that is affordable which will help me in future-proofing. Definitely no hard selling, not only does she not stick to one type of program, she suggests multiple for me to understand what’s better for myself. I am so happy to have found someone like Kayla to entrust her with planning my finances 😌

Kalai Rajan (Process Technician)

Pleasant, Comfortable and Informative. Questions were addressed during the discussion and I didn't know there were so many things can be done for Tax Savings! Kayla is definitely someone I will recommend if you are new to SRS.

Hui Ying (Biotechnologist)

Professional, efficient and knowledgeable. Kayla explained very clearly how things work and clear queries. She’s definitely my go-to person for any finance related questions!

Bala & Sumi (Young Family)

Thank you for sharing on the overlapping of benefits vs optimizing every dollar that we pay for insurance. You also share with me on the difference between savings & investments, and which is better / more comfortable for us. You advised us on the restructuring process too. You were also able to relate to how young families might be facing now and in the near future, and through our conversation, we were able to somewhat grasp what we will be facing in the near future. It was a very clear & open conversation. You display great professionalism in the whole consultation process. Overall, I feel the consultation was very beneficial, 8/10!

Lim Yunghwa

Discussion was on point, time horizon fits into what I was looking for. Felt comfortable sharing existing plans with Kayla so that we are able to pin point any loopholes there might be. Kayla touched about Children Education - which was something that was not of urgency until she pointed out that University fees in 2040 might amount to $100k and she shared a few ideas of how we as young parents can leverage on the time horizon to fund for our child's education!
