Together, let's build businesses that last

Growing pain?

  • Heavy workload all with urgent priorities. Founders and teams are overwhelmed and on the verge of burnout
  • Too many difficult decisions, not enough experience and 'headspace' to solve urgent matters whilst going for the market potential.
  • Hiring the right people and managing a fast growing team while trying to ramp up the business.
  • Finding investors who "get it".
  • The need for structured development and accountability
  • The recognition for the need for growth from the feeling performance stagnation or plateau
  • The feeling of isolation at the top and the need for a confidante.

My bespoke methodology

In business life: the business, the founder(s) and team form a unique recombination entity – a set of genetic sequence which is unique in its strengths and weaknesses.

I treat each client with utmost respect for their uniqueness and therefore tailor my methodology to enhance the strength of their core and holistic resilience. I gear my advisory and execution services as a one-of-a-kind service for each unique client as I do not believe in one-size-fits-all approach.

'Little Pivots'

I apply my own original methodology based on the powerful idea that little incremental changes, which is consistent and constantly adapted for improvements can lead to significant progress. Small changes, use less energy but they make big impacts!

East-meet-West Fusion

We apply the most potential from the best of both worlds! My combination of life expertise and business experiences in the East and the West provides the unique and effective approach for harmony and pragmatism in business.

Start where you are

We review the current management process, identify things that work well and should be kept or even built on. We identify the core strengths, the misaligned goals, unclear expectations, intricate conflicts before we refine the execution plan and organise the existing resources to propel the business forward.

KISS (keep it simple and straightforward)

We uphold the KISS principle. Most systems work best if they are kept simple rather than made complicated. I specialise in growing small businesses with limited resources, and therefore keep simplicity as a key trait in each solution I recommend. Every advice I give is actionable without any waste of resources. We avoid all unnecessary complexity.

Think holistically

Building a resilient business requires holistic thinking. We look closely into the complex, clarify the business objectives, values, function in its market, process and structure. The chain of activities that makes up a service involves many moving parts which are connected. We work as a team to build integrated resilience in each value chain element into a complete, end-to-end process.

Create value

I view my intervention as mere vehicle for the values I focus on delivering. My client-centric approach keeps our focus on "Why do my clients need me?". I empathise in each situation and strive to create and deliver the exact value they need.

The 9 pillars of my uniqueness

Co-Entrepreneurialism

I bring my strong entrepreneurial DNA and experiences to each assignment. I share my clients' goals and visions for impact!

East-meets-West Exposure

I bring my intuitive flair and sharpened instinct I've honed with over 20 years in over 40 countries across the globe.

Network Intelligence

I encourage, promote and share my own network intelligence to strengthen my clients' insight and knowledge.

Tri-Layered Focus

I build success by enhancing the resilience of the businesses I serve on three levels: strategy, operations and team.

Actionability

I provide practical value and assist my clients in an efficient execution that goes beyond slides...

Prioritised Goals

For every assignment, I identify and organise objectives based on the urgency, ROI, value and impact.

Business and Financial Modelling

I translate abstract financial models and build tangible action plans to enhance the performance of the business and investment.

Bespoke Collaboration

I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. I offer specific one-of-a-kind, purpose-driven services.

Medium-Term Prospective

I go beyond solving immediate problems and achieving urgent goals. I prepare the clients to build businesses that last - call it the next level!

request a quote for the resilience mentor

Nina led a personal exploration course that I was fortunate enough to take. Her insight and power in that experience showed up in our subsequent work.

Her writing for my executive series is first rate and insightful. She was an excellent guest on my podcast. Additionally, her essay “Fortitude Through Surrender” in my recent book and her subsequent reading in “The Sun Never Sets on Resilience” book reading displays her depth as a writer and significance as a performer.

Dr Watson Jordan

President of the Resilience Initiative, USA

When I was developing my start-up last year and applying for few Accelerator Programs in Malaysia, she mentored me to develop a top notch Pitch Deck. She helped to me to identify what is important to be highlighted and how to understand specifically what is my niche. She is the kind of mentor needed in Malaysia. Open-minded, world-class, professional, pro-active, business-minded, devoted, knowledgeable, experienced, dedicated, creative in whatever she sets her mind to do. Anyone who has a chance to work with her at any capacity will surely benefit from her amazing talent and skills.

Liez Pucher

Founder Meranti Plc, Financial Empowerment Advisor, Malaysia

We had the pleasure of working with Nina who is a top-notch professional with a wealth of experience and insights. Her positive attitude, down to earth nature and expert insights, creates an immediate rapport and respect. She gave us a clear plan at the start of how she was going to help us, helping and guiding us through the straight and narrow, which was just what we needed at the time.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Nina to any C-level execs looking for someone they can trust to guide them on their business journey, no matter what stage they are at.

Like us, you will probably come away having not just found a mentor, but someone you can call a friend.
