Influence Solutions | Your F.I.R.S.T Learning & Development Partner

We help create inspiring places to work in

We are an award winning Learning and Organisational Development training provider headquartered in Singapore delivering training solutions across the world, currently in five languages.

Our mission is to empower organisations to be agile, resilient and inspiring places to work in by forging high trust, high performance cultures. This enables organisations to rapidly seize emerging opportunities and overcome challenges.

A high trust, high performance culture is easy to achieve when people confidently and consistently demonstrate the F.I.R.S.T.™ competencies, that is - Future-Ready, Innovative, Relevant, Strategic and Trusted.

To help people demonstrate these competencies more consistently, we identified 35 simple, repetitive and visible actions after researching thousands of teams across the world.

People can select the 3-5 actions which they believe are easiest and most authentic for them to demonstrate that they are F.I.R.S.T.™.

Here is an inspiring example of one of our client's successful transformation journey.

What Our Clients Say

Alan McDougall

Inspiring. Engaging. Motivating.

Exceeded my already high expectations! We already engaged Karen for several years.

At our regional medical affairs conference in Seoul, she led a change management experience for our regional medical affairs team.

Licence To Thrill Virtual Experience -

We laughed, we teamed and the time flew by! Got to know my team a lot better!

Gilles Gelle

COO, Capital Markets Asia, BNP Paribas

Impressive. Exactly what I wanted. Simple but striking. Efficient and lively. It made people think about change and how they personally cope with it. It gave a good view of people's expectations so I can support the change properly.

Partha Dutta

Senior Vice President, Digital & Technology, Sembcorp Industries Ltd

Karen engaged a diverse group so well with her wit and vivacity, sharing her experience and wisdom in Influential Leadership. Effective, fun experience. Can't recall too many programs that gave me a more effective set of tools for applying the skills at work.

Jack Shirley

Operations Director, AMS AG

I would recommend Karen and Influence Solutions to any leadership team that is looking to transform their current state of "just running" the business to actually developing an effective leadership team that can provide the path for an organization to change and become a world class company.

Linda Ming

Director of Communications, McDonald's Singapore

A memorable and uplifting experience for all women leaders.

Doreen Neo

Senior Leadership Team, Mediacorp

Perfect 10! I learnt how to let me team see the problem, come up with the solutions and be accountable. The result is that they grow as leaders. I strongly recommend this session to be extended to our next in-line people managers.

Tracy Jones

Ernst & Young, USA

An interactive program that engages participants. There were lots of laughter, challenges that were thought provoking, and overall very good content. It was a great way to bring the team together to build relationships and rapport in a fun environment. The time flew by quickly and everyone felt reinvigorated after the session. Working virtually all the time can be exhausting. Licence to Thrill definitely helped us as a team bond and learn more about each other despite being virtual!

Amy Liu

Very actionable. The facilitators re passionate, knowledgeable and powerful. Course was well structured, clearly aimed and well delivered."

Jennifer Hewit

Director, Credit Suisse Singapore

Brought practical actions to the forefront of our thinking. Enabled manu 'ah ha' moments.

Collin Lee

Head, Customer Lifestyle Management, Singtel

The Influential Leadership programme is concise, easy to understand and implement. Mukul is one of the best facilitators I have ever seen. He made learning simple and easy.

Zahira Lerebours

Administrative Manager, Ernst & Young LLP, USA

LICENCE TO THRILL is a great teaming activity without focussing on traditional teaming exercises. It takes you back to childhood make-believe character games! The focus was on each other and second at solving the game. Before you know it, you know your fellow players better and finished the game before the clock runs out. Secret mission: Teaming! Thank you!
