Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow reposted thisThanks to Pazzion Group for trust in James Cook Institute and me for the Corporate AI Training for their staff. Glad to be able to inspire staff on usage of Gen AI at workCoach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow reposted thisLearning new skills for the future. We recently organised an AI training session for our corporate team, giving our colleagues the opportunity to build a better understanding of AI and explore how it can be applied in their day-to-day work. As AI continues to evolve, we believe it is important to equip our people with the knowledge and skills to adapt and make use of new tools effectively. A big thank you to Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow and James Cook Institute for facilitating the session, and to our team for their active participation and willingness to learn. At PAZZION, we remain committed to creating opportunities for our people to learn, develop and grow. #PAZZION #TeamPAZZION #LearningAndDevelopment #EmployeeDevelopment #AI #WorkplaceLearning

Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow shared thisThe names of the companies were released by the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore on Sep. 30. The companies bought the fake reviews from a digital marketing firm and were posted on platforms such as Google, Carousell, Yelp, Trustpilot, Tripadvisor, and Facebook. Posting fake reviews to deceive or mislead consumers is considered an unfair trade practice. If found guilty, a court can order the supplier to pay the consumer damages. Mothership

It is fun for the trainers too. We get to learn from one another 🤭 Having said that, I still prefer delivering standalone workshops most of the time. The tricky part of collaboration? Matching everyone’s schedules! 😅 I enjoy a more loosely connected approach, like the Wellness Fiesta I’ve organised over the past two years. Whoever is available, come together and show up! 😃 Each partner brings their own strengths. Learners get to explore different aspects of wellness, and we get to connect and learn from one another. I love collaborating. I just like keeping the arrangements simple and flexible too! 🙌😊

Singapore Institute of Advanced Medicine (SAM) Holdings and 365 Cancer Prevention Society came together earlier to sign an MOU to collaborate and partner in providing greater holistic care and support for the cancer community and fellow Singaporeans in cancer detection and diagnostics. The partnerships signify better access to cancer diagnostics and radiological technologies by 365CPS from SAM to potentially get ahead of the cancer prevention curve while fostering earlier cancer detection. As a long-time partner and supporter of 365CPS's free cancer screening GUI, I'm so thankful for SAM's continuous support and their team for making this MOU signing happen too. Looking forward to scaling to new heights with all. #cancerprevention #cancerfighting #cancereducation

Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow liked thisYear 4 begins! A reflection from our founder on the first three years of Herk Consulting, and what comes next. Onwards and Upwards!Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow liked thisToday marks the start of year 4 of Herk Consulting! When I started the company 3 years ago, I didn't really mark the date or commemorate it with any special meaning. The company was started over a few days in September, and it was marked simply by the registration with ACRA and with the bank for my corporate account. There was no "grand opening", and definitely no rolling of pineapple (not with SG rental rates!). 😄 At that time, I didn't have a completely clear idea what the company was going to be about. I registered it as "Consulting" because that felt like it gave me room to manoeuver, and room to pivot. But I knew I wanted to help people and companies become better, and I wanted to give it a shot, and to see where this effort would take me. At that time, I also told myself - Give it three years. Three years to build up the company. To clarify my thinking and identify my focus. To see whether I could build something sustainable around work that I cared about. I also remember saying to my wife that if, after 3 years, I couldn't make it sustainable, perhaps that is the point to accept that it hadn't worked and I would go find a job again. Last night, as I shared about the closing of my books with my wife (as a financial update to my key stakeholder 😄), she reminded me of this conversation... my 3 years are up! And I am super glad that I don't have to make that decision. The past 3 years have been a period of growth, learning and figuring things out. There were quiet periods when I wondered where my next project was going to come from. Projects that got cancelled. That went nowhere. Things I got wrong. And many things I had to figure out simply because I had never run a business before. But somewhere along the way, things definitely changed. When I started, it was "Can I make Herk Consulting work? Can I find clients?" Nowadays, I ask myself very different questions - What should we become really good at? What should we build now? Where should we grow? Who are the people, partners and clients that we want to work with? What internal structures and systems should we put in place to grow? i.e. What should Herk Consulting become? I am spending more and more time figuring out how to scale and grow the business. Increasingly, I am also finding myself thinking more in terms of "we" rather than "I". How do we grow beyond the work that I can personally do? How do we make clients shift from hiring "Herk the trusted facilitator" to "Herk Consulting the trusted capability development partner"? Not that everything is sorted out. There are definitely still many areas to consider. 😄 But three years ago, I gave myself three years to find out whether Herk Consulting could work. Now I am sure it works. And I want to see how far we can take it!

They look fine. They turn up, meet deadlines and care for everyone around them. Because nothing has broken, no one asks if they are okay. And often, they do not ask themselves either. At the PAP Women's Wing Conference 2026 last weekend, I joined a panel on women and wellbeing. This is the key takeaway. We are not meant to do this alone. Support from others does not make our problems disappear. But it acts as a buffer, softening the impact of stress and helping us stay resilient. Yet many of us stay quiet because we do not want to burden anyone. So we wait until we are at breaking point. I understand that. I have done it too. But when we share, we give others permission to do the same. Looking after ourselves does not need to be complicated either. It is small, consistent daily habits that make us feel better. For me, that is singing in the shower and belting out my favourite songs. 🎤 For you, it might be a walk after lunch, a proper night's sleep or a chat with a family/friend. Small things, done often, add up. So check in on the women around you, especially the ones who seem to have it all together. Ask twice, because the first "I am fine" is often automatic. And remember to check in on yourself too! It was so lovely to share the stage with, and get to know, Juliana Chan, Porsche Poh, Noorfarahin Ahmad and our moderator, Dr Charlene Chen. Thank you all for such a candid and generous conversation. And thank you to our Guest of Honour, Minister Sim Ann, and to the organisers, Diana Pang, SMS Hanyan Goh and Yeau Mei Jun, for bringing us together. What is one small habit that helps you feel better? #WomensWellbeing #MentalHealth #CorporateWellness #SocialSupport #Preventive #Wellness

This wasn't one of them. I was young, single and in my first job when a few married male colleagues made indecent proposals and asked me to become their mistress. My answer? No! No hesitation. No negotiation. Just No. I believed there was a line between professional and personal life—and I wasn't going to cross it. I also saw colleagues having affairs. It made me think about marriage, family and the kind of woman I wanted to become. Funny thing was, this wasn't my first important “no”. As a teenager, I had turned down a wealthy man's son because I wanted to continue my studies. Years later, I was still saying no when something went against my values. But this time, my “no” wasn't only about protecting my own future. I hoped it might also make someone pause and think about the wives and children waiting at home. Looking back, I realize something: Legacy doesn't begin with what we leave behind. It begins with what we stand for. Leadership starts there too. Knowing what matters. Having the courage to draw the line. And sometimes, having the courage to simply say: No. What is one value you would never compromise, even when saying “no” is difficult? #WednesdaysWithFrida #TheLegacy #Leadership #Values #Courage #PersonalGrowth #Frida

People from all walks of life and different generations come together to celebrate the festival. We 提灯笼🏮and walked around the neighbourhood. What stood out to me the most was the sense of togetherness. Saw some lanterns were creatively pieced together using day-to-day materials. I also managed to catch up with my primary school friends. Not forgetting eating some mooncake and pomelo. Beyond the lanterns and the festive treats, the occasion was a good reminder that sometimes the most meaningful moments come from simply being present and reconnecting with people. How did you celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival this year? === My name is Yih Ting. I hold conversations around finance, leadership and growth.

Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow liked thisCoach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow liked thisI want to facilitate more. I’m putting this out there because perhaps I simply haven’t been telling enough people. After completing my WSQ Advanced Certificate in Learning and Performance (ACLP 2.0) with the Institute for Adult Learning Singapore, I made a promise to myself: I don’t want this to become another certificate that sits nicely in a folder. I want to practise. I’ve had opportunities to apply what I learnt through presentations and sharing sessions with students going for internships and postgraduate students at Nanyang Technological University Singapore. But I want to do more, especially workshop facilitation. And this is where I need some help. I keep hearing, “You work in a university. There must be many opportunities!”. Perhaps there are. I just haven’t figured out how to find my way into them. So rather than quietly waiting for an opportunity to appear, I’m raising my hand here. If you are looking for someone to co-facilitate, support a workshop, take a segment, assist an experienced facilitator, or simply give someone an opportunity to practise, I would really love to hear from you. I’m particularly interested in learning and development, career development, workplace learning, student development, professional development, technology and process improvement. I don’t need to start by leading the room. I just need somewhere to start. And to the facilitators in my network, I would really love to learn from you: How did you get your few facilitation opportunities? Did someone give you a chance? Did you volunteer? Did you approach people? Or did you simply tell enough people, “This is what I want to do”? Perhaps this post is me doing exactly that. I am interested. I am willing to learn. I am ready to practise. Now, I’m looking for that opportunity. #Facilitation #WorkshopFacilitation #ACLP #AdultLearning #LearningAndDevelopment #WorkplaceLearning #ProfessionalDevelopment #LifelongLearning #NTUsg

Coach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow liked thisCoach Eugene Macarius FITOL Trainer Mentor ACLP, HRDC, Digital AI Trainer, ICF, ITOL Fellow liked thisA good answer is not the same as proof. Someone pushed back hard on something I'm building, the kind of pushback that's clearly seen a pattern like this fail elsewhere before. I had a real answer, not a deflection, and I gave it. She didn't take it as resolved, only as reasonable. She said she'd have to think about it more, which was the honest and correct response, because my answer was reasoning, not evidence, and the actual proof only exists once enough time and scale have passed to test it. I noticed how easy it would have been to mistake her not rejecting it for a win. It wasn't one. A good argument that a concern is probably unfounded is still just an argument. The concern stays open until something real happens that could have gone the other way and didn't. Promotion committees do this constantly. Someone makes a well-reasoned case for why a candidate will handle the next level, the room nods because the reasoning holds together, and everyone quietly treats that agreement as if it were evidence the candidate is actually ready. Nobody has watched it happen yet. The room just liked how the case was made. How often does your organisation mistake a persuasive case for a tested one? #LeadershipDevelopment #TalentStrategy #LeadershipReadiness
