In Touch

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

In this issue, I'd like to do something different. All of the highlights are very interesting videos from TED talks about the way we think. The videos are between 15 to 30 minutes, but they are well worth your time I promise. Hope these resources will help create marginal changes in your life every so often. Let's be enlightened together!

The Puzzle of Motivation

Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don't: Traditional rewards aren't always as effective as we think. Listen for illuminating stories -- and maybe, a way forward.

Are we in control of our own Decisions?

Behavioral economist Dan Ariely, the author of Predictably Irrational, uses classic visual illusions and his own counterintuitive (and sometimes shocking) research findings to show how we're not as rational as we think when we make decisions.

Chua Marites Pharmacist Assistant

I am very grateful and I appreciate Alexander's efficient response to my concerns with Quality and Professional Service standard. His approachable attitude and character to address my needs achieves the level of service in which I am aiming for.

Get serviced by a good agent like Alexander, you deserved it and I am confident you will be happy with his work.

Maria Staff Nurse

I am a critical illness survivor. As a result I realized how under-insured I was and how difficult it is to get insurance once you have contracted a critical illness. I tried many time over the years and my application was always rejected. I have almost given up until Alexander was assigned to service my policies. He is the difference maker. He reviewed my policies and listened to my story carefully. Then he said to me he can help if I am willing to work with him and provide the necessary reports and documentation. With nothing to lose I agreed. Then of he go to work submit in my case. Over the weeks he deftly handled all the underwriters requirements that showed up. Then one fine day he surprised me with a visit. "Congratulations you got it!!" he said and I couldn't believe my ears. Alex informed me that my critical illness policy has been accepted with standard condition and will only exclude the cancer she had previously. What a breakthrough. I am thankful for Alexander attention to details. For I am convinced if there is way, Alex will be the one to help me to get covered. He is the difference maker.

Alice Eliza Koh, Retiree

I was introduced to Alex by my sister who greatly appreciated his good customer service, detailed explanation, good followup and recommendations, patience and always approachable and who readily make himself available to meet to explain the policy or whatever understanding needed . I found him to be good and wished I had known him earlier so I could be wiser in my purchase of health and fund policies that meet my needs and not the need of the agent for better commission Though busy, he still followup and only 1 call away whenever I have issues to discuss Recently I called for meeting to discuss my Prudential funds and to better understand the recent host of cancer related coverage on the daily news. He not only came to meet promptly upon my call but came prepared with printouts and presentation. I am impressed with his service and has no hesitation to recommend him to whoever are looking for a good insurance consultant/ advisor

Eldo Joy Senior Software Engineer

Alexander was assigned to me as the new consultant to me last year. It was nice for him to drop by and share the updates on the policy. He was professional and helped with our enquiries. We took a new policy and he helped us to get it done with timely assistance. Hoping to get his advice in future as well.
