OUR AREAS OF EXPERTISE
challenge preconceived mindsets to overcome seemingly impossible tasks.
Our programme center around 3 key building blocks of any organizational
development effort - Leadership Development, Team Development and Change
Management/Innovation.

Page 5
Design and facilitation of organizational development
learning programme for companies in Singapore and Asia-Pacific
Our learning methodology is highly effective. Adventure-Based Experiential
Learning engages individuals/teams in challenges, stimulating them to reflect
upon these experiences critically, derive useful insight, and incorporate the
results through a change in understanding and/or behavior to the workplace.
Coupled with state-of-the-art outdoor facilities, FOCUS Adventure levels up each
corporate learning experience towards greater impact.
FOCUS on Objectives
While focusing on your programme objectives, we will pay attention to your
team's reaction to the recently implemented changes in your organisation.
Paradigm Shift
We aim to bring about radical changes and a shift in personal and organizational
belief systems and culture through our programme.
Application-Centred
Learning is transferred by linking the experience to actual work practices. All
participants co-operate to ensure that worthwhile ideas and feedback during the
programme be recorded, compiled and shared. Participants should be
adequately informed of related follow-up actions and their outcomes. Meetings to
review progress should also be scheduled.
Adventure-Based Experiential Learning
Adults learn best when it is problem-cantered and action-oriented. The design of
our activities ensures full participation and lessons are drawn from the learning
experience.
Evaluation
Evaluation up to Level 3 based on Kirkpatrick’s Model can be conducted to
measure the effectiveness of the programme and its impact on participants.

LEARNCENTIVES
Adding A Learning Element To
Incentive Trip For Corporate Teams
An
Incentive programme, usually include overseas leisure travel or a pampering
resort stay for staffs to reward them for good work performance.
Fueled by the growing need of organizations to continually train and develop its
people, these trips are now transformed into “LEARNCENTIVES” whereby a
learning element is included to drive more mileage out of a reward scheme.
The learning element is related to specific job or industry but conducted in a fun
way. Our learning programme is tailored based on clients’ specific needs and
objectives. Isomorphic framing focuses on matching a client’s needs, mind-set
and objectives with an adventure experience. FOCUS Adventure adopts this
powerful framework in all its programme in creating relevance and mirroring the
experience to the client’s industry and work processes. This is done through
proper structuring of programme and effective facilitation, which increase
motivation and enhance transfer of learning back to the workplace.
At the same time, corporate teams would be able to explore the destinations and
try out new activities. A free day or two to relax, shop and partake in other leisure
adventures are usually added to complete the LEARNCENTIVE trip.
We have led teams to outbound destinations like Bintan, Bali, Bangkok,
Changmai, Phuket, Taiwan, Malaysia, Shanghai and Japan where unique
LEARNCENTIVE experience are created.

FOCUS Consulting believes in building your capability to face the future. Our strength lies in
creating acute and relevant perspectives that carry adequate importance to create new paradigms
in organizations.
Future holds answers to all our queries, dreams,
aspirations, etc.
It is not an option to just wait for future to arrive. We
seek to meet the future before it comes.
Opportunities are created and not chanced upon.
While some believe in luck of the draw, we believe in
creating the draw for ourselves.
Changes are inevitable. Even if we recognize this fact, it doesn’t guarantee
discerning what to change. Identifying the critical changes is imperative to success.
Unique propositions are processed opportunities. An opportunity that evolves into
an idea requires effective communication. Not paying attention to how these ideas
should be presented.
Systems are an integral part of our lives. We trust black boxes that we have little or
no comprehension of as working principles. Every corporate environment creates its
own systems that sustain it running. Only the right systems will yield desired
outcomes.

Thank you so much for organizing & facilitating the offsite session @ Bintan Lagoon Resort. The
games were really fun and besides having a great time, all of us took away gems of learning (e.g.
collaborate to achieve greater performance; in times of uncertainty/darkness, trust your team
members' advice when you need to shoot; planning/strategizing is essential to achieve one's goals).I
must say Tuckman's theory on structure of teambuilding was well received - "Forming, Storming,
Norming and Performing". We left Bintan Lagoon happy and recharged for greater things as a
Performing Team....On behalf of C&C Team, thank you so much !

granted him numerous opportunities in interacting with a great
diversity of people. He was a financial consultant in AIA and while in
CPF, he managed requests and feedback from the public. Prior to

teaching to facilitating.
Outdoors to Wei Guan is the best theatre for learning to take place at
multiple sensory levels. His ability to impel participants to invest
greatly in the activities, striving to attain quality in both outcomes and
their relationship comes with ease to him. During facilitation, Wei
Guan displayed great strength in creating metaphors that are downto-earth thus making the metaphoric transfer easily identifiable to the
participants.
Equipped with teaching background, he is sensitive to participants’ learning needs by offering the right
amount of challenges to different types of learners. He has conducted many successful programmes

you FOCUS, that day marked a significant change for our organizations culture & environment!

The activities proposed and planned had been useful for team-bonding, thinking out strategies as a
team as well as including some fear factor challenges into the games as well (a la-Mousetrap Tower).
In many real office situations, fear of failing ad-hoc projects/tasks is always present, like our fear of
the mousetrap snapping and hurting someone. But the successful building of a tower using just
mousetraps is akin to have successfully complete a project. Excellent facilitation by Dean & the
FOCUS team! :)
