A glimpse into what’s taking shape at APAC Change Institute, the philanthropic arm of APAC Global Advisory, established to build legacy through Change by “sowing the seeds” today 🌱

Where community perspectives, industry experience and research converge, APAC Change Institute equips the next generation for Change by bringing together insights, practice and network to support individuals and enrich communities. We seek to cultivate a community of multi-generational Change leaders who will nurture the next generation, create lasting value and contribute towards a resilient, sustainable and caring society.

More than an institute, we are a community where ideas take root, knowledge becomes practice and relationships grow into networks of support, building a legacy of Change across generations.🌱

As we continue building our network of partners, leaders and institutions, we’re also creating a space on Instagram to share the ideas, collaborations and initiatives shaping our next chapter.

From Building Legacy Through Change to the development of our Change initiatives, follow us for a closer look at how APAC Change Institute is bringing together community perspectives, industry experience and research to create meaningful impact.

We are grateful that APAC Global Advisory has received the Company of Good - 1 Heart recognition for 2026 to 2028 from the National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC).

This milestone is especially meaningful to us, as it aligns with APAC Global Advisory’s commitment to integrating profit with purpose and contributing to Singapore’s advancement as a City of Good. It has also provided an opportunity to reflect on how APAC Global’s purpose of “Building Legacy Through Change” continues to drive greater social impact through our philanthropic arm, APAC Change Institute, where we build legacy by sowing the seeds today to tackle barriers to growth and succession and prepare the next generation to thrive so that they can make positive contributions to their communities.

As Change Leaders with years of experience across transformation, and as builders of our own ventures, we see this as an opportunity to contribute by bringing together our experience, networks and capabilities, further activating our purpose and deepening the impact we can create through APAC Change Institute.

The conferment ceremony coincided with the 10th anniversary of Company of Good and the Company of Good Fellowship presentation by members of our leadership team, Wong Mei Wai and Ban Leong Oo, on the APAC Change Institute’s integration strategy and new programme. It was also wonderful to engage with Company of Good Fellowship cohort 9 and our mentors, including Abel Ariza and Oscar Postma (Thank you for your wishes from overseas).

Special thanks to Chang Hui Tze and Professor Dr. Pisitta Vongswasdi for being part of the APAC Change Institute’s founding team and supporting its journey from the start. Together, we look forward to building on this momentum!

We enjoyed the event and the many conversations throughout the day, including hearing from Tony Soh, CEO of NVPC; Sufei Lin, Director of Corporate & Industry Partnerships at NVPC; Senior Minister of State Ms Low Yen Ling; Deputy Prime Minister Gan Kim Yong; and other speakers. Thank you to Joachim Goh, Kristen Koh, Jielin Zhuang and Sophie Wenxin Ter for bringing together such a meaningful Company of Good Fellowship and Company of Good Conference & Conferment event.

It is an honour to be part of this movement and to stand alongside organisations that began their journeys ahead of us and have made a positive difference. We look forward to sharing more about our Company of Good Fellowship journey in the coming weeks.

Founded in 1983 and headquartered in Miami, Signamax is an established provider of connectivity and network infrastructure solutions supporting mission-critical applications across industrial, commercial, medical and security sectors.

Following a strategic merger and acquisition, the company needed to refresh and reposition its brand for the next phase of growth, while aligning its legacy strengths with a future-ready, digitally enabled ecosystem.

APAC Global Advisory was appointed to integrate, reposition and transform Signamax’s brand, taking into consideration the stages of mergers and acquisitions in Asia, with a priority to build its footprint in the USA.

“Building Legacy through Change Leadership”

This was the underlying theme of Wong Mei Wai's guest lecture, where she shared her Change & Transformation stories during Professor Dr. Pisitta Vongswasdi's People-Oriented Leadership session for the Kellogg-WHU Executive MBA in Vallendar, Germany.

Addressing a distinguished cohort of around 70 EMBA global executives and senior professionals from the Kellogg EMBA programmes (Germany, Chicago, Miami, Canada, Hong Kong, and Beijing), Mei Wai shared her Change stories and insights from years of working as a serial Change Agent across industries alongside CEOs, Boards, and senior leadership teams in family businesses and listed organisations across APAC and globally.

Drawing from her work in organisational Change leadership across Brand, Technology, and People, she spoke candidly about leading transformation in complex and evolving business environments.

Themes emerged consistently across her successful Change journeys:

• Change Begins with Ourselves

Leaders who genuinely embrace change and work on themselves drive stronger organisational change outcomes than those who rush into surface-level change.

• Be That “Bridge” with Change

More successful change occurs when leaders effectively bridge change challenges through clarity, trust, oversight, and hands-on leadership.

• Be Prepared to “Dance” with Change

Because change is “live,” leaders must adapt in real time to emotional, organisational, and multi-cultural realities.

• The Softer Side of Change Is Harder to Observe

The psychodynamics of change, including human behaviour, organisational psychology, team dynamics, and culture, are often underestimated despite their impact on success or failure.

• Build Your Brand

Strong change leaders build both organisational capability and personal credibility. Mei Wai also shared her perspectives and tips on developing a trusted leadership brand in transformation environments.

The programme concluded with a farewell boat party on the Rhine River following their two-year EMBA programme. Amidst meeting new faces, conversations continued about the future of leadership, family business legacy and cross-cultural change management. What a celebration of a two-year learning journey, while creatively presenting their winning AI music developments, which was truly impressive!

Thank you to Professor Dr. Pisitta Vongswasdi and WHU – Otto Beisheim School of Management for hosting an engaging dialogue on leadership and Change. Special thanks to Katrin Baedorf and Amirtha Raja for your warm welcome and for making Mei Wai's journey smooth and special in Germany.

As organisations continue to navigate disruption, the ability to lead change effectively remains a defining leadership capability.

What began as an invitation from Arshia Narkar to the panel for The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)'s Women in Business Empowerment Week has grown into a five-year tradition.

Each year, Wong Mei Wai, Founder, CEO & Chief Change Advisor of APAC Global Advisory; Lorna Strong, Associate Programme Director MSc Law and Finance at The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) and Managing Director of Stong Consulting Group; Anshula Kant, Managing Director and World Bank Group Chief Financial Officer and Arshia Narkar, AI Product Manager at Amazon, continue to reconnect to share their journeys across industries, cultures and countries, through different perspectives and experiences.

What continues to stand out across these conversations is their courage to embrace change and make defining choices in pursuit of both personal and professional growth, often across geographies.

These conversations reflect how different perspectives can deepen relationships that are built with intention, shaped by different experiences and evolving contexts.

May this tradition continue to grow for many years to come.

It was refreshing for both Wong Mei Wai and Ban Leong Oo to carve out dedicated out-of-office time to truly walk the talk by taking time to step into this journey and to be among a community of like-minded individuals committed to driving Change. As part of a growing network of 243 Fellows, alongside 184 organisations that have come before us, this marks the beginning of a shared journey towards greater impact.

In line with integrating profit with purpose and contributing towards advancing Singapore as a City of Good, this was also a meaningful moment to reflect on how our Purpose of “Building Legacy Through Change” can continue to drive greater social impact alongside APAC Change Institute.

Beyond the Welcome & Onboarding for the Company of Good Fellowship 2026, thank you to National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC) for hosting a content-rich session over lunch - a strong start that offered a glimpse into what is possible through this journey, as we look to drive Change and scale impact across the People, Society, Governance, Environment, and Economic dimensions.

As Change Leaders with years of experience across transformation, and as builders of our own ventures, this marks an important starting point to further activate our purpose - integrating and amplifying how we contribute to meaningful social impact through APAC Change Institute.

It was a privilege to engage with and hear from Tony Soh, CEO of NVPC; Sufei Lin, Director of Corporate & Industry Partnerships at the National Volunteer and Philanthropy Centre (NVPC); Kristen Koh, Head, Impact & Development; as well as Cheh Hsien Lee , Assistant Chief Executive of Sentosa Development Corporation, Abel Ariza, CEO of Everhaus Group and Nix Tang of Sentosa Development Corporation - alongside our wonderful groups and many inspiring conversations.

The Company of Good Fellowship continues to demonstrate how organisations can move from corporate giving to corporate purpose, equipping leaders to activate purpose and drive meaningful impact across ecosystems.
