Specialising in business-to-business (B2B) sales and leadership coaching did not happen by chance.

Simon has over 20 years of SME and MNC corporate experience in chemical trading, training consultancy, direct sales, pharmaceutical, and food service industries. His corporate experience in sales, business development, training consultancy, human resources, sales training and coaching has given him an edge in helping clients learn the change management process and navigate through the adversities for achieving more remarkable performance. Since the inception of his coaching firm, Simon has helped a wide range of clients, mainly in food service, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), insurance brokerage, insurance, pharmaceutical, healthcare providers, fitness, business services, industrial products, government-linked companies, and non-profit organisations. His most sought-after programs include Leader Development Program, Strategy into Action workshop, individual & group coaching, Leadership & Coaching skills courses, and the Train-the-Trainer program for developing in-house coaches. Coaching, facilitation, and training are Simon’s passions. He loves what he does.
