Global Launch
John created the strategic marketing plan and was personally responsible for the entire go to market execution of our global business launch. John brought invaluable insights and research to the business owners. He conducted thorough analysis of business plans and formulated precise, customized strategies to move the business forward. He was superb in lead generation which is the lifeblood of any business.
Throughout all my interactions with John, he proved himself to be very professional and knowledgeable, yet humble. He was a great listener, ensuring he stayed updated on the operational challenges and details of the business, which allowed us to effectively brainstorm and formulate strategies. I would unreservedly recommend John to anyone looking for a business advisor, partner and leader.

Balance
John is an experienced manager who can balance the organization's business objectives while positively motivating his direct reports. His management style is one that mentors while giving sufficient leeway for creativity and out of the box thinking.

John was instrumental in guiding us as we started our digital payments business and entered new Southeast Asian markets. His insightful advice, hands-on guidance and practical wisdom had a big impact on our business. John has earned my trust as a business partner and advisor.
Member Engagement
John is a creative and thoughtful individual. I had the chance to work with him in BMW M Club of Singapore (MCoS). As a marketing director of MCoS he has brought the club to a new level of vibrancy.
John is passionate in bringing new ideas to the table and his creativity has allowed us to explore options that we had not imagined before. In the midst of a pandemic, we continue to keep our members engaged, mainly thanks to John’s input and contributions. He is able to articulate his ideas across and present effectively to stakeholders. He gives careful thought before he executes an idea and many times was able to provide constructive alternatives when we meet with roadblocks.
Given his vast experience in marketing and his outstanding credentials, I believe John has the ability to deliver and go beyond.

I rarely come across real talent who stands out like John and he earns my highest endorsement.
