“Adversity breeds resilience.”

Kendrick Kwek credits the tough obstacles he faced for inspiring him to achieve the Top New Financial Services Director award in 2021. He believes that overcoming obstacles will not only shape him into a better person, but also push him to perform his best to achieve his goals.

“2021 was a trying year as we had to make huge changes in the way we conduct our business due to the pandemic. However, we stayed focused, remained resilient, and refined our system to make ourselves stronger, better and faster.”

Kendrick is deeply humbled and grateful for the people who have helped him overcome these obstacles and guided him to achieve his success. He is especially thankful to his organization’s founders - Lin Qiren, Jason Ng, Jeremy Toh and his mentors Evelyn Chung and Jerald Tan. He attributes their tireless guidance, positivity, and tenacity for the past seven years as the reasons for him to be where he is today.

Most importantly, Kendrick recognises that it is the managers and consultants in his team, his fellow ‘warriors’, that inspire him to be on the ground day in and day out, constantly working to improve himself and striving for new breakthroughs.

Kendrick quotes Nelson Mandela and reaffirms his belief that “everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do.”

Congratulations to Kendrick for his latest accolade and may he achieve even more in the years ahead.
