"Too often in business we do the ‘same old, same old’ and not even differently. Our biggest challenge as a professional services firm, in a highly competitive and undifferentiated sector, is to embrace new thinking and make massive changes to enhance the employer and candidate experience.
Dr YKK, as a consultant to Slade Group on Creative Thinking in Business and Creative Thinking in Recruitment, has really allowed us to ‘unzip our minds’, and let loose our craziest ideas. We’ve learnt that it’s often the craziest ideas, tamed, that end up being the leapfrog strategy.
I highly recommend Dr YKK to Australian organisations; he brings a fresh approach, global commercial experience and a very endearing personal style."
Anita Ziemer Managing Director - Slade Group, Australia
“You have addressed our challenges during
his talk and provided creative inputs on how they could be met. You have
facilitated some wild ideas generation session on building synergies
between business units and then tone it down for possible practical
implementation. The entire session was highly inspiring and gave us
valuable insights into the tools for creativity and how to apply them in
our business.”
“My personal creative sessions with Dr YKK provided me with the impetus and ideas on how to proceed with the writing of my first book. He even challenged me with a unique and provocative title for my book "You Can't Manage Your Money .. Especially When You're Rich"." The contents of my book are a direct result of my response to his challenge.” Yap Ming Hui Author of the book : "You Can't Manage Your Money ... Especially When You're Rich".

This was a very stimulating
workshop. Not only did we manage to generate a lot of new ideas, but the
most important thing might be that the team realised why creativity is a
key success factor in today's tough market place. If participants in the
workshop take the perspectives and techniques we learnt back to their
workplaces, that would be a very valuable thing for the company. Hartwin Feddersen Marketing Manager EAC Asia
“YKK has the gift of tailoring his
talk to the specific needs of his audience. At the First Networking
Forum 2002 of The Lion Group, he was able to use the 'power of
connections' among our subsidiary companies to boost their creativity in
synergistic marketing to a higher level. We were motivated and energised
to explore new possibilities for future business ventures.”
“Our sales and marketing team generated lots of ideas during YKK’s creativity workshop. We are now evaluating these ideas for selection and development as part of
our marketing strategy.” Angie Goh Kimgres Marketing Sdn. Bhd.
