I Create & Facilitate Learning Experiences for Leaders to Unlock Organizational Potential 🔵 Org Psychologist & Leadership Speaker 🔵 Top Neurolinguistic Programming Voice 🔵 Licensed NLP Trainer & Coach Trainer

Hey there! It's Stuart!

Over the last 30 years, I have been teaching, coaching and mentoring various leaders at different stages of their growth. 

I've a MBA, and also an MSc in Organizational Psychology. 
My background is in Linguistics and Counseling psychology. 
It puts me in a situation where I actually read people and situations really well. 

This helps me to be a detailed solution creator for organizations who might feel stuck or not know where to go.

I've spoken to well over 500,000 people globally. 
It's been a joy to see them learn new things and expand. 
I'm excited to see people grow and flourish. 

The reason why is because of the number of mentees I've worked with in the past, who have flourished to unbelievable levels, materially, socially and emotionally. 

Some are giants of industry today, others are out of depressive cycles, and still others have found their joy.

Very often, I'm tasked to speak to the senior management group due to my ability to contextualize quickly.

Or to be put to mediate and facilitate difficult conversations.  
I have personally been through many such challenging events in my own life, and therefore empathize with emotional frustrations, anxieties and fears.

As a people developer, I believe in the highest intentions of other people. 

I'm also sensitive to the needs of others, and always do my best to align the needs to the common good.

I see connections of ideas and people where others do not, and innovate along those lines to produce unconventional results in simple ways. 

I adapt to my coachees, and look at ways to present new perspectives so that they liberate themselves from stuck situations.

Many of my programs are designed with the intention of drawing from the "inside-out" approach, helping individuals recognize their inner power, and helping them to create a positive bridge in their communication with others. Personal Mastery, Leadership development, Team Development and Conversational Intelligence are all elements I love working on with BU heads and HRBPs.

Because of my vast experience, I tend to bring together an integrated mix of inspiration and activity, so that we're not just listening to lectures, but really practically building skillsets or engaging in conversations. This elevates training programs to become living communities of learning.

As a coach, I work to heal inner psyche, be it founders or business leaders. It allows them to evolve to higher levels of functioning, make better decisions and achieve better results.

Connect with me, and let's see what we can do to elevate humanity!

[Why We Can Help You]
In Singapore’s financial planning industry, the commission-based model often gives rise to a conflict of interest and hence many financial products are being sold through poor financial advice. I believe that advisers who could give honest and independent advice are commissions-free. Therefore, I founded Providend and established it as the first Fee-Only Wealth Advisory firm in Singapore since 2003, where advisers work on a fee-only basis.
 
Beyond my passion and conviction to right the wrongs in the wealth management industry, I also believe that it’s never just about building and preserving wealth—it’s about your entire life. Money is just an enabler for living the life you want and living richly means something different for each person.
With more than two decades of experience in the wealth management and financial planning industry, Providend has come to be known as a retirement specialist.

We have developed a proprietary methodology for near-retirees and retirees called RetireWell which was also featured in The Business Times every month for almost a year in 2017. You can find the article link here: https://www.businesstimes.com.sg/investing-wealth/drawing-down-retirement-money
 
[Our Process To Serve You]
My team of advisers at Providend share my passion and belief to provide financial coaching, planning and investing advisory service to the affluent and expats in Singapore. As a mid-sized ensemble, professional practice firm, we charge a fee for advisory and there is no commission for any investment transactions because your interest is our top priority.
 
Before engaging us for our services, we offer a complimentary, no-obligation initial meeting where we can chat about your current situation, future goals, and concerns. We will give you our honest feedback regarding our ability to help you achieve your objectives and address the financial challenges you may be experiencing.
