Evelyn has more than a decade of human capital consulting experience, specialising in the application of psychometric assessments for individual, divisional and organisational development. Highly customer-focused, she is in earnest when engaging and harnessing insights across the leadership pipeline, from the C-suite to the front line of diverse industries. Her passion lies in providing integrated solutions beyond psychometric instruments where scientific methods and quantitative measures are used to better analyse and understand the psychological variables of talent pool.

Prior to current role, Evelyn led a team of highly qualified consultants under Thomas International Malaysia of Deloitte Consulting and was actively working with several EMEA Deloitte partners in the global expansion of Deloitte Leadership Academy (DLA) especially in contributing the insights on learning styles from the psychological aspects. Her past role involved empowering clients to take up HR initiatives, and developing existing practical and progressive HR/People management strategies. Her responsibilities also included managing several key accounts in Southeast Asia. She climbed the corporate ladder and quickly became senior manager. However, her thirst for adventure was not quenched. Boldly, she left with a clear vision –to build a company that not only offered standard tools, but would design customised solutions to organisations’ people needs.Thus, People Psyence® was born.

She has developed the Shared Competency Model and designed the Virtual Assessment Centre for renowned MNCs as well as GLCs and delivered a series of competency exercises along with psychometric assessments to groups size up to 150 incumbents ranging from young managers, Head of Business Units to the C-suite level. Project scope which she has managed was also inclusive of having a Leadership Dialogue session to provide feedback to each incumbent and to validate their personality profiles.

With Evelyn at the helm, People Psyence® flourished and grew rapidly, establishing themselves as psychometric assessment specialists, winning the Gold Best Psychometric Testing Provider award at the HR Vendors of the Year awards in 2017, 2019, and 2020. Ever enterprising, Evelyn did not stop at conquering the psychometric assessments field, but aspired for People Psyence® to be a holistic human capital solutions provider. Thus, design thinking and gamification were added into People Psyence®’s arsenal of service offerings to innovate customised and engaging solutions to clients’ needs.Not one to rest on her laurels, Evelyn turned her attention to the passion project that had taken a back seat for some time–a mind wellness consultancy service that provides all-inclusive support for individuals and organisations’ employees.
