WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY AFTER WORKING WITH US…
Fyiona is one of the young woman leaders who have the passion to promote gender diversity and wellbeing in organisation I have ever met! Her story telling and articulation together with her coaching skills are what I remembered her the most!
Willie Cheng, Head of People at AsiaMiles
I have never attended a workshop on multi-generation topics until Fyiona Yong, one of the youngest coaches in Asia, gave us an interesting lecture. I realize that we are living in a world of four generations and how to embrace multi-generational culture becomes important. Millennials become majority of the workforce – 100% of my team are Millennials. The keys to multi-generational success are empathy, flexibility and no assumptions. With a design thinking methodology, Fyiona helped the delegates work out some solutions on cultivating a more diverse and inclusive environment within the company.
Daisy Yu, Sales Lead at Google
Fyiona delivered a workshop on Managing Intergenerational Teams for the FT’s Women in Business Asia Forum. We were drawn both to her professional business experience and her personal understanding of the challenges faced by team leaders managing across generations as well as cultures. Fyiona gave clear and actionable tools to help managers foster inclusivity and cross generational understanding in order to get the most out of generationally diverse teams. A valuable session.
Lucy Colbeck from Financial Times
Before I had my sessions with Fyiona, I was going through my career blindfolded. Fyiona really helped me take control of my work and my career.
I consider myself to be very smart and thus naturally assume a lot of things. My assumptions helped me get to where I am today but it was also the reason why I struggled to understand many of people around me. Fyiona showed me that I didn’t have to assume and that I could just ask. This helped me become a better listener and ultimately a better leader.
It was pleasant working with Fyiona, she is able ask thought provoking questions and is easy to talk to at the same time. She is great at explaining abstract concepts and I was really able to understand what she was trying to tell me.
Yang Li, Development Operations Lead at Standard Chartered Bank
Fyiona was an amazing speaker at HR Magazine's conference on managing multi-generational workforces. She shared candid advice on what HR practitioners can do to better motivate, engage and integrate different generations in their organisations. Feedback was great and Fyiona had the audience's attention right from the get go. Great sharing, I'm already inviting her back again to our next event.

I was so lucky to have enrolled in Fyiona’s coaching program as a part of millennial leadership journey. 6 sessions of coaching were not only covering professional space but also personal development. Somehow it is very hard to have a coach to be at workplace to listen & give feedback to your difficulties, not to mention a coach that understand the business world and team dynamics. Fyiona always see “difficulties” differently at the same time showing empathy with business sensitivity. Being a millennial manager requires even more effort to re-think and learn to un-learn. I will recommend this program to all of us, the millennial leaders.

“Fyiona is an engaging, lively and relevant speaker who we were pleased to have join our recent Millennial Masterclass half-day seminar, organised in partnership with KPMG. I would unreservedly recommend her as a speaker, consultant or personal coach in the filed of millennial engagement and management because she truly knows her subject!” - Robert Stockdill (Content Director, Inside Retail)
"With her background and experience, Fyiona provides interesting insights and understanding of people and the workplace. Her passion for coaching is evident and really engaged me during the workshop. There was one particular exercise she conducted that really helped me understand what really drove me in my personal and professional life. It has actually changed my perspective on how I would approach things in the future. I believe Fyiona's coaching would be extremely beneficial to any organisation and even for MBAs candidates like myself." – Calvin Loke (HKUST MBA, Class of 2019)
“Fyiona is an excellent learning and development coach. She taught our team at LinkedIn how to define your personal and professional values. Many times in life you feel frustrated and stuck. Fyiona was able to share her own personal experience of grit that helped our entire team to come together. I would highly recommend Fyiona for any corporate trainings and public speaking engagements.” – Nina Blankenship (APAC Digital Marketing Manager - LinkedIn)
"I attended a couple of workshops conducted by Fyiona on Executive Presence and Personal Brand building. I am really glad that I took this opportunity. It made me look into myself and explore my strengths and behavioral aspects and how to use them to build an executive presence. (…) She brings her vast industry experience and career coaching expertise to the table and blends it perfectly with the workshop subject. I specifically liked few methodologies she used in the workshops to extract the key strengths out of your personal and professional experience. I will definitely recommend this to others and I believe that workshops like this will definitely add that extra bit to your profile.” – Tanmoy Ghosh (Assistant VP Deutsche Bank)
