Testimonials
Daniel Yu
Belkin International - A Foxconn Company - Head of Strategic Partnerships, Asia Pacific
"Dr. Lee has opened up the world of wine and spirits to me and nurtured my journey through social etiquette which has helped me enormously in my career and built confidence when interacting with others in a fine dining environment. Managing senior international business relationships is never only about the business at hand, it is always coupled with social behaviours to build mutual trust. There is no better way of building strong rapport than by sharing a mutual passion over a glass of wine and whisky."
"Working with Dr. Lee has helped me see where I was playing small and not pushing myself out of my comfort zone. I was in the wrong rooms. Through 1:1 mentorship and consulting, I learned the subtle nuances of interpersonal communication, how to build better relationships with investors and high-net-worth leaders, refined my style, mastered wine and whisky tasting, and learned to read the room. Most importantly, Dr. Lee helped me get into the right rooms."
