Meaningful Work
Are you living an intentional and meaningful life at work, at home and in the community? What is a meaningful life and what does meaningful work look like to you? Is having an understanding of whether your work is meaningful important to you?
Can transformation truly be possible?
At Logos Learning, we truly believe that if you understand what drives and inspires you and your organisation, transformation can happen. Do you understand how you think, perceive and interact with others? Are you looking to understand yourself and others better so that you can work more efficiently and effectively and thus be more productive? Self and Team-awareness is critical to success as learning to appreciate yourself and others, and changing your perspective can spur one to lead a more meaningful and fulfilling life. It is therefore very important to connect both the heart and mind, so that sustainable change can happen from the inside out.
In our Inside Out Series, we will guide you in your journey to discover yourself – your priorities and purpose in life, and your thinking and behavioural preferences. With this understanding, we will guide you on how you can apply that understanding, so that you are empowered to transform yourself so as to contribute positively to your work.
Work is not the total representation of who we are, but as it is such a big area of our life, it does contribute to a part of who we are. So where does meaning in work come from? Some organisations excel in creating a meaningful work environment while there are also individuals who bring with them a sense of meaning and mission to the organisations that they work in. Which category do you fall under? Do you agree that the ideal situation is to have both? For that to happen, it could mean for many, a transformation for both the organisations and the individuals!
There is a saying “A happy staff is a motivated and productive staff”. A staff who is engaged, motivated and productive will move the company towards greater success and profits. Would you like to be able to sustain your passion and joy in the things that you pursue throughout your lifetime?
The Heart That Stirs
At Logos Learning, we believe that the answer lies in the individual’s Life Purpose.
Deep inside all of us is a desire to lead significant and meaningful lives. When we discover what our purpose is and find a way to live that out through our job, it becomes natural for us to want to do the best for ourselves and for the company that we work for.
Your SUCCESS as a leader, a manager, and an executive or business owner should not be measured merely by all that you do. Excellence is not determined by completing a to-do list. The degree of how purpose-driven you are is the way to excel in your field and business.
About the workshop
Through a 2-day workshop, we would take you through a journey of self-reflection and self-discovery to see why your work matters and develop practical handles and strategies to be effective and productive at work and in the other areas of your life.

As Singaporeans live longer, we are all expected to have more years in retirement. While that means that we would have more time for our retirement, it also means that we would have to build a larger retirement nest egg to support that. Singapore’s population of residents aged 65 or older is expected to triple by 2030 (source: MCYS – Committee on Ageing Issues: Report on the Ageing Population as report in a study by Millward Brown for Council of Third Age)
To help Singaporeans build up sufficient financial resources for retirement and to also continue to tap on the valuable skills and experience of older employees, the government passed the Retirement and Re-employment Act, which took effect from 1 January 2012. This Act makes it mandatory to re-employ qualifying workers who are 62 and also raises the retirement age to 65 years old.
What does it mean for someone who is nearing retirement? Do we know what it takes to retire? Do we know if we have enough for retirement? How do we decide if we should continue working if we do not?
At Logos Learning, retirement is not about stopping work. Retirement is about planning early for the life we want and paving a way to live a purpose-centred life so that we can leave behind a legacy. If we are mentally strong and physically healthy, we can continue to value-add to our company and mentor our younger colleagues. We should all take charge of our life and plan early towards a purposeful retirement.
Logos Learning believes that providing financial education to staff in the worksplace is the WISE thing to do to demonstrate to them that you are aware and care about their well being. This is especially so for the staff who are in their mid-40s and above; when you care enough about their retirement to send them for courses and help them plan for it, you are showing that you care about them.
Contact us today, let us walk you through our Retirement Planning Process and show you how we can journey with your staff in planning for their financial needs.

Why is financial education in the workplace important?
How critical is financial stress? In a study conducted by Financial Literacy Partners, LLC, in the United States back in 2009, they calculated that employee financial stress cost businesses US$15,000 per year per affected employee.
Have you ever considered if this is happening in your workplace? If it is happening, do not ignore this and let it become a cost to your organisation. Here are some quantifiable symptoms of Financial Stress:
- Increased Absenteeism
- Lack of Job Concentration and decreased productivity
- Increased use of healthcare benefits
- Interruptions by Creditors
How can you engage your employees?
Are your employees concerned about their financial well-being? Are your employees worried about their retirement plans? Are your employees leaving their jobs for a better paying job?
Providing financial education in the workplace is the WISE thing to do to demonstrate to your employees that you are aware and care about their well being.
Recognise the need for financial education; Take positive steps towards implementing relevant programmes from trustworthy sources.
Why is financial education at Logos different?

More importantly, we help people see holistically how wealth can help them live out a purposeful life.
We will guide your employees through the concept of money as an enabler and how to best manage financial resources gained from their professional life.

And in May 2012, statistics showed that 6.3% of all credit card debts incurred by young Singaporeans were in default, compared to 3.3% for other Singaporeans.With younger employees facing more financial stress, your organisations’ productivity could be affected.
