Professor of Finance (Practice) | Singapore Management University
"A lot of our Adult Educators should not just keep thinking that the world that they know will stay unchanged. You might be sharing knowledge that you have acquired 5 years ago. New things have been happening in the last 5 years, so you must keep on learning."

Director, Organisational Excellence Transformation Unit | National University of Singapore
"Industries are changing faster than we can blink. Within 5 years, industries can come and go. If the industries themselves have not changed within that 5-year time frame, they may well be not in business... Therefore by default, the TAE professionals supporting these sectors would also have this same challenge of keeping up with these changes."
"Have fun in your job... If you do not find fun in your job, then you must create that fun in your job."

Master Mentor | Asian Culinary Institute
"If i were to cultivate the F&B industry, I would like to cultivate it as a family, as a team. The industry is very wide, and technology is evolving so fast. It is a very, very competitive world out there, but we can make it such that everybody wins."
"I believe our attitude will define our success. Give all you got, be kind, and you will see the next generation coming up just like you. If you have achieved your goals in life then it's time to help others to achieve theirs as well."

President | Singapore Institute of Aerospace Engineers
"To make sure the profession continues, you have to groom the next generation. Classroom teaching is out... Learning must be fun - that is important. Education, especially Adult Education, is very society oriented. Each society learns differently. You can't possibly be recognised as an educator, if you do not understand this."
