No matter how many testimonies and affirmations Luminaries Lab receives, we always humbly recognise that the success of every training, consulting and coaching assignment is the effort of more than just the training company. We often hear, “It takes a whole village to raise a child”. It is the same with adults as staff development really involves the concerted efforts of various entities. Long before setting up the training company, Mr David Lee has already been preaching and practising the stakeholders based approach of organisation development. Simply put, when it comes to adding value, every organisation needs to go beyond just the clients and shareholders. Other stakeholders may also include the employees, suppliers, society at large, relevant government bodies as well as industry partners. Through his various appointments, he has since served and partnered with people from numerous organisations which are listed below. Some of the testimonials he received are also featured. More than just a display list, this is an acknowledgement of great organisations that believe in staff development.

Note: This list is not exhaustive and also does not include organisations whose projects are confidential especially in the area of coaching and consulting. We apologise for not being able to acknowledge every organisation.

Testimonials

Tan Boon Gin, Director, Commercial Affairs Department, Singapore Police Force

I have been through many similar courses. This is the first one where I found everything felt really original. The framework and ideas were very well thought through and very relevant. David Lee was very good. He was engaging, gave very good case studies and examples and pulled everything together very well. I would definitely recommend without reservation. 

Fong Yong Kian, Chief Executive, Singapore Totalisator Board

Thank you for your superb facilitation of the workshop series. The scope was well organised and achieved its objectives successfully.  My staff have acquired the broad principles and know-how to achieve better self-awareness at a personal level and to collaborate better with each other at the team level. Your ability to provide real-life illustrations, which the participants can easily relate to, are especially helpful to us in grasping the principles and applications of DISC.  My staff and myself have enjoyed and benefitted a great deal from the workshops.

Li Yu, Assistant Director, Monetary Authority of Singapore

Thank you for the interesting course on “Adapting to Change”. Really appreciate the effort which you have put in to make the course interesting, engaging and stimulating. The programme was well-designed and entertaining games were incorporated to bring across important learning points, concepts and principles in an easily comprehensible manner. A big thank you for your effort!

I would recommend David’s training and consultancy to others because he is au fait with a good number of management theory frameworks to help facilitate discussions.
