ith only two weeks to complete 18 enrollments during
the first month of their Diamond Club, Stanley and
Yee Mun mentioned that they were worried at the start that
they would not be able to complete the task. However, with
determination they gathered their leaders to conduct one
to two classes a day for the whole two weeks and pulled
through the first and most difficult month of Diamond Club.
They continued to strive on and completed a task that they
had thought daunting to begin with, making them pioneers
in the SGMY 2018 Diamond Club.
When asked what they felt is the most important quality
required for Diamond Club, teamwork was the first thing
that came to mind. Whether it was in planning events, the
paperwork that they had to run through, or ensuring that
their new enrollees signed up with their entitlement, they
always strove to find the most effective way to get the job
done as a team. Stanley and Yee Mun realized through their
Diamond Club experience that when they got all their leaders
involved and when everyone pitched in they could galvanize
the team to achieve a common goal. This to them was one of
the most memorable takebacks from the contest.
envisaged when they decided to join. All the adjustments
that they made along the way were all directed back towards
achieving the same goals that they had started with. “With
the momentum built up during the activities, we managed to
not only reach but also exceed our enrollment target,” said
Yee Mun.
Stanley and Yee Mun felt that their organization had grown
as a team through Diamond Club. Even some of their
builders who had previously found it challenging to invite
friends to their presentations were able to find confidence
and improved in their skills through Diamond Club events.
Though it had initially seemed an uphill task, they knew
what they wanted to achieve from Diamond Club from
the very beginning and were prepared for challenges and
stress. However, with careful planning and sharing of the
workload with their team, Stanley and Yee Mun said that
Diamond Club did not turn out to be as daunting as they had

Stanley and Yee Mun hoped to groom more teachers to eventually become leaders in their team. They believe
that “completion is more important than perfection”. They used Diamond Club events as an example and
encouragement for their leaders to step up and conduct classes on their own. This proved to be a success as
through Diamond Club Stanley and Yee Mun were able to cultivate a number of builders who can now conduct
classes independently.
