Biography
My professional experience
As the first US returnee working in China’s Human Resources field in the early 90s, I am both well rounded in Human Resources management and specialized in organizational development and leadership coaching. Before joining HR, I was a business consultant in the US serving clients such as IBM, Federal Reserve Bank, etc. My HR and coaching experience spans across three industries: telecom, financial services and pharmaceutical while I worked for multinational companies in China, US and Hong Kong. My passion has been in elevating talent and organizational performance through practical and insightful HR consulting and coaching individuals and high performing teams.
My belief in coaching
The power of coaching lies in its impact on coachees to transform. I believe everyone has a map that guides them to where they aspire to
be. However, bombarded by all the noises and temptations around us, people lost their ways
from time to time which leads to being in a sub-optimal state. Coaches’ role is to help coachees find their way back on their map and crystalize the directions. Since I started coaching 10 years ago, coaching has become my passion as I experience again and again people overcome their own limitations and achieve what they desire in work and life.
What’s it like to work with me
Coachees who benefit from my coaching are those who are committed to searching deep inside them what they need to do to reach a higher level of being and to become more focused on what truly matters to making progress toward their ultimate mission. The best coaching conversations are like two people dancing where the coach leads by listening intently and asking critical questions and the coachee searches deep into themselves for answers. I care deeply about each coachee and I also hold them accountable to their actions.
