Creating a Culture of Innovation

Message from the Managing Partner – Helmi Talib

What makes an organization successful? – I would say it is the ability to adapt and create a culture of innovation. I wish to share with you some insightful thoughts on what drives a business into prosperity and growth.

Being in a leadership position, I have always encouraged my team to constantly look for innovative ideas that has the potential to improve performance through the introduction of new processes and services that can effect positive change in our business. The first half of 2021 has presented its own set of challenges and opportunities, which we have handled together with resolve. Our firm’s forward looking and innovative approach helped us weather the current storm and build new partnerships with some amazing clients who have placed their trust in our service standards.

Looking forward to the second half of the year, we hope to renew our focus on:

1. Valued services: A hallmark of our firm since its conceptions has been to place the clients’ interest at the center of our business. Our clients know that they will receive our full attention to meet their service needs with high standards of quality.

2. Committed to improve: We understand that there is always room for improvement and will always continue to better ourselves. We are excited to inform you of our latest entity – Helmi Talib HR & Payroll Services Pte Ltd that is now ready to provide you with dedicated payroll as well as human resource related services. It is also a pleasure for us to inform you that our management is ever growing, with Jaypee Bautista being admitted as an Audit Partner, a well-deserved title for his years of working with us.

3. Empower our employees: Employees constitute the backbone of our firm; without them we would not be where we are today. As a firm that is always on the lookout for new ways to improve, we have been providing our staff with online trainings, workshops, seminars and more. We understand that success for a firm also means creating a culture where every employee is given the space to think independently and find new ways to solve problems and provide solutions.

With the support of our team and the continued trust of our valued clients, I am confident that we will achieve greater heights in the months to come.

Together, let us continue our journey to prosperity.
