I am a passionate coach who can lead different teams ranging from a youth football team in winning nationwide championship to a global leading sportswear company’s marketing team in creating Brand and Business success in the Greater China Region.I am a people-oriented person. My source of energy and inspiration always come from great people and talents. I value and cherish people relationships. I love engaging in competitive situations and seeking to influence and motivate others around me as well as being the one to champion success together. I am keen on nurturing a high-performance culture of a great team and unleashing the unlimited potential of my teammates.‘A team’s culture is about the conduct and behavior of everyone involved, it’s working together towards shared objectives and, as such, is an immediately identifiable part of the group’s identity,’ said Pep Guardiola, former FC Barcelona Football Manager.I am a holistic leader. I am focused, logical. I commit to activities that are centered on tasks, innovation and creativity. I dedicate relentless effort to pursue goals with focus on communication about numbers, quantifiable data and through encouraging consistency and process.Originated from Hong Kong, I bring 23+ years of experience of Marketing and Leadership from Nike Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Beijing. Serving professional athletes, the core value of Nike, marked my first chapter with Nike Hong Kong’s Sports Marketing team. In 2008, the Beijing Olympics year, I brought with my passion and experience to Shanghai, the Nike Greater China Headquarters, to define and establish the new global strategic direction – Nike Category locally for Nike Running, Training and Football. In 2013, I led the entire Hong Kong Marketing team of 40+ teammates to create a transformational game-changing marketing strategy to elevate the consumer experience and further foster brand differentiation in such a mature but energetic market.In 2018, with the new global strategic city focus, I headed to Beijing, Nike North West Territory headquarters with a mission to rebuild the team of 110+ teammates and culture altogether as well as regain the No.1 brand position in Beijing city. With tremendous team effort, Nike dominated sustainably the No.1 position in Brand and Business in Beijing and the North West Territory.‘If you want to go fast, go alone.If you want to go far, go together.’African Proverb
