Leaders under Fire

When: Sat, 1o March 2012, 9.40am to 12.40pm. Registration, welcome drink and networking starts at 9am!



Companies are keen to innovate but don’t know where to begin. Most companies tend to be over-reliant on a small number of customers or products. They are so busy selling their existing products to existing customers that innovation takes a seat. Many are intending to explore new ways of doing business. But how?

The truth is that no one factor makes a company admirable. But if you were forced to pick the one that makes the most difference, you'd pick leadership.

Looking at today’s news on challenges to the corporate world, it would be fair to say that in the next 50 years; only 15 of the best 25 companies will still be around. What then are the real challenges of the 21st century economy?

To meet the challenges of the 21st century economy, it is better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared.

EightTen™ for winning organizations in the NEW Future by David Wee




The future consumer choices will be shaped by emotion. Not science and not logical. People now trust opinions of a stranger more than what your company says about your products and services. That’s the age of the NEW Normal. In the NEW Normal, the future is already here.

EightTen™ deals with new winning business strategies, leadership in the NEW Normal, change, creativity and innovation.

The leadership skills necessary for managing innovation and technology in the New Normal are fundamentally different from the leadership skills necessary for managing during turbulent times. Genuine leadership comes from the quality of your vision and your ability to spark others to extraordinary performance.

EightTen™ is Asia Leadership Model™ researched and developed by David Wee. EightTen™ is the 8 habits of Servant Leaders & the 10 competitive advantages for organisation growth and success.

If your company or colleagues are interested to learn more about EightTen™ either as an in-house program or open enrolment, please email: davidckwee@pacific.net.sg or asiasb@starhub.net.sg to discuss how we can meet your unique needs. Tel: +65 96791106


The 8 habits of Servant Leaders

Learn what it takes to be a Servant Leaders. How does the Servant Leaders’ organization structure looks like. What is the difference with Power and Authority? Leaders must have new thinking, courage, brain power, be smart and have a sense of humor. Are you? Change is difficult but NOT impossible.

1. Trust is born out of the truth – being free from deception (It’s about Honesty)
2. Take ownership & be committed - actions which speak louder than the words
3. Become a good follower first – show self-control (Dealing with Patience & Anger)
4. Forgiveness – rely on discipline and not emotion. Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
5. Love is an act of kindness – help people to live better lives and reach their potential
6. Let go of your ego – display an absence of pride (Dealing with Humility & Listening)
7. Respect – build positive relationships. Treating people like they are important.
8. Selflessness - meeting the needs of others. Giving starts the process of receiving.

The 10 competitive advantages for organisation growth and success.

How do you lead in turbulent times and respond to change? At every moment, we can choose to let our circumstances shape our lives and business or we can shape our circumstances. Being a winner is a choice, not a condition of your circumstances. Change is inevitable - Growth is optional. The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different.

1. Differentiation - If you don’t have a competitive advantage, don’t compete.
2. Adversity, Attitude – Falling is not failing, unless you fail to get up.
3. Velocity, Visionary – The speed of the boss is the speed of the team.
4. Ideas, Creativity, Innovation – If at first the idea is not absurd, then there is no hope for it.
5. Dependable right people - Hire people better than you
6. World Wide Web, internet marketing & social network - It used to be that if you wanted sophisticated marketing tools, you had to be rich. That’s not the case on the Internet. Anyone can compete, just at different levels.
7. Energy - In order to succeed, your desire to success should be greater than your fear of failure.
8. Enthusiasm – There is no way around it. You absolutely must have fun. Without fun, there is no enthusiasm. Without enthusiasm, there is no energy
9. Mindset - learn, unlearn & relearn. Go beyond yourself. Your habits. Your standards. Challenge your limiting beliefs. Find a way to do more today than you did yesterday.
10. Emotional Intelligent - the right way at the right time. If you don’t know where you are going, any path will get you there.
