What is Brendon passionate about?

Brendon is passionate about helping companies transform the way work gets done by:

1. Understanding business goals and objectives from the business owner, operations manager and employee perspectives
2. Analyzing digital maturity of companies and proposing relevant and suitable software solutions
3. Building digital products and internal tools that are simple, efficient and easy-to-use
4. Focusing on key results, validating hypotheses and adapting to new insights

Many companies struggle with going digital due to:

1. Lack of expertise in identifying internal problems and evaluating best-fit solutions
2. Presence of data silos and processes that make integration almost impossible or costly
3. Lack of digital champion to spearhead and promote digitalization

Why is Brendon passionate about Digitalization?

• Most business owners either spend too much time solving process issues or end up over-hiring to cope with the growing workload. I was one of those business owners, with a twist, I managed to do it.
• In 2017, I started AGOPSG Pte Ltd, providing live entertainment services for private and corporate events. We had a core team size of 4 and around 70+ part-timers in logistics and event solutions.
• While running the company, I was also working as a business analyst/project manager in the day. Having two jobs mandated a more productive strategy of running my company remotely. It was definitely a struggle migrating from different offline and cloud-based software and finding one that actually worked.
• Leveraging on my business analyst experience managing multiple projects for enterprise clients (e.g. Changi Airport Group, Certis Cisco, NAFA, SIM), I was able to come up with a digital strategy to streamline different processes (sales, accounting, operations, marketing) without over-hiring or over-spending.
• I had a first-hand experience of digital transformation and wanted to help other SMEs do the same.

Brendon’s Strengths/Interests

Works best with Visionary CEO: Execution

• Edge ('Corner Case') Thinking: Viewing problems/ideas from multiple perspectives
• Data-Driven: Will rely on real data to prove a point

Brendon’s Weaknesses

• Tend to lean towards tried and data-proven ways of doing things
• Always needing resolve for ambiguity. Dislikes having things 'left hanging in the air' with no concrete resolution
• Extremely critical when new ideas are suggested (might appear to be gunning down idea but actually providing different angles to 'future-proof' the idea and make it work)
• Will become extremely logical (non-emotional) when trying to solve problems
• Extremely detailed - might get lost in too much details instead of focusing on big picture
• Opportunistic and innovative by nature but often drops ideas due to high focus on the execution plan
