My Story
I started my career in Sales and Marketing with Marriott International helping open the iconic Marriott International in Sydney, Australia in 1990. The Marriott Training Center provided my initial leadership training, and throughout my 14 years of service, I had the privilege of receiving top-notch leadership training at various managerial levels across the globe. However, what truly left a lasting impact on me and shaped the person I am today is the leadership philosophy imparted by Mr. J Marriott, the esteemed founder and chairman of the organization. These philosophies, such as "Walk the Talk" and the importance of taking care of employees so they can in turn provide exceptional service to customers, have become ingrained in my very being over the past 20 years. As a result, I have grown into a leader who values respect and strives to embody these principles in my interactions with others.
In the year 2000, I had the incredible fortune of being reassigned to a new role in Shanghai, China. This opportunity not only opened doors on a global scale but also allowed me to leverage my diverse cultural background. Acting as a bridge between Western and Eastern countries, I had the privilege of managing and leading multinational teams, working together towards the common goals of our organization. The results achieved over the past years have been nothing short of amazing.
Partnering with Sophie, the founder of RPG and becoming the Co-founder of RPG Asia was an incredibly wise decision that I made. I have complete belief in the mission and vision that we have set, as well as the rich experience, well-structured courses, and highly capable senior team in China. I am confident that we will bring immense value to local organizations, supporting their sustainable growth and enhancing the overall quality of leadership.
My China team and I are fully dedicated to the development of leaders who possess unwavering confidence, pride, and a proven track record on the global stage. We aim to facilitate a dialogue and share their success stories with leaders from around the world.
