| 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. | | Every Kid Deserves a Champion | Rita Pierson  | | Proudly Brought to You I seek to reach out to people who believe in safeguarding the interests of their loved ones.

© Gary Giam, All rights reserved. | |  | | Sobri, Teacher Gary has been great at explaining everything clearly and in a way that’s easy to follow, which is helpful since I sometimes lose track of the details in my portfolio. It’s reassuring to know he’ll be there if anything goes wrong, especially when it comes to handling claims. My meet-ups with him feel more relaxed and more personal than with other advisors—I enjoy working with him! | |  | | Wee Tat Yong, Retiree I was referred to Gary through a friend and since then, he has been my go-to person for my policy matters.
One of the things I appreciate about working with Gary is his attention to detail when making recommendations. He takes the time to explain the nuances of the policy and how it will affect me in the long run. He also keeps me up-to-date on recent happenings and news that may impact my policy, which is very valuable to me as a busy person.
What sets Gary apart from others is his friendly and approachable nature. He is never pushy and always takes the time to answer my questions, no matter how trivial they may seem. This makes me feel comfortable and confident in his ability to manage my policy needs.
Overall, I recommend Gary for anyone looking for an advisor who is easy to work with, detailed in his recommendations, and keeps you informed on the latest news. | |  | | Yanni, Manager Appreciate Gary for always open to share his financial knowledge as well as his knowledge on various policies available. | |  | | Kai Wen, Engineer Gary is a really sincere guy. He and his team came to our company to give financial literacy talk more than a month ago. It was super informative and really helpful in terms of looking at the risks and also giving us latest trends in insurance coverage. Few weeks later he came back to meet me to answer some questions about investment risks and insurance coverage that I had. He did not to try to sell me financial products but instead was trying his best to educate me about my risks and how I could reduce risk and grow my wealth in order to have a safe financial standing for retirement. He is also quick answering questions and following up via WhatsApp/ text and email. I really appreciate his work ethic and professionalism. Thank you Gary. ☺️🙏 | |  | | Azizah, Restaurant Manager Having Gary as my financial adviser has been a great experience. I really appreciate his regular updates and check-ins—they show he genuinely cares about my progress. He’s flexible with timing, so it's easy to stay on top of things, and he’s always there to help when I need it.
Gary’s opened my eyes to the value of insurance and investments with insights that fit my goals. I like that he only recommends things that make sense for me—he’s straightforward and not pushy at all. He has a way of making everything easy to understand, so I feel more confident and informed about my financial journey. | |  | | Lee Leong, Logistics Admin I got to know Gary when he took over my account after my previous advisor left the company. Initially, I was skeptical about how well he would manage the transition. However, I am glad to say that Gary has been exceptional. He is knowledgeable, not pushy, and promptly follows up on my claims. His professionalism and dedication have given me confidence in my financial planning. I highly recommend Gary to anyone seeking a reliable and efficient advisor. | | | | |
