Global Mindset, Asian Insights
Launched in January 2016, the ISCA Mentoring Programme is organised by the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants (ISCA), and designed to provide CFO aspirants with access to experienced C-Suite Executives. Through one-to-one mentoring, mentees can learn from their mentor, what it takes to become a CFO themselves in future, as well as tips on leadership, management and stakeholder communication, amongst many other areas of expertise which the mentor could offer.
We have had two successful runs and registrations are opening soon for the 2018 run.

“I like the candid discussion with Arthur on the different career paths I can take to broaden and deepen my skill sets as a senior finance executive. And what did I gain most from the programme? – The mentoring relationship with Arthur of course! The programme might span only six months, but I'm confident the informal mentoring could stretch for decades.”

“I have learned that in order for me to be able to influence others with new ideas, I need to understand the personalities of those present at the meeting. Tony has shared with me the different personality profiles commonly used, which helped to widen my knowledge in this aspect.
Tony has also introduced two of his capable staff who shared a lot with me, and from whom I was able to learn. I have become more focused and now have a better understanding of my personal aspirations. For sure, I have become more confident over time.”
