TESTIMONIALS

STEPHANIE HETZEL

Client Services Manager 

Caterpillar Inc

Michelle worked for me as an event planner at Caterpillar. She is an expert in her field managing large & small programs throughout Asia. She is creative and able to transform typical meeting and programs into amazing themed events, no matter the scale. She is able to do this with her vision and motivation for excellence while looking for ways to repurpose existing materials and reduce costs.

 

Michelle has a positive attitude, is skilled in her trade, and is motivated by her drive to have her customers thrilled with the results. She has the leadership skills to manage teams, vendors and customers to ensure comprehensive plans stay on track. I highly recommend Michelle as an event manager.

Michelle is a truly outstanding event planner. Her creative flair, combined with her drive, passion and pursuit of perfection are second to none. In saying this, Michelle always remains great fun to be around, and her positive can-do attitude is truly infectious to everyone she works with. Michelle will not disappoint, it is not in her DNA. I would not recommend Michelle more highly.

Excellence drives Michelle. She takes great pride in her work and puts her heart and soul behind it.  She thinks creatively in visualizing the event, is innovative in the use of materials for decorations to contain costs, foresees potential problems and develops solutions and ensures plans are well laid for effective execution. 

 

The biggest event she organized for the Singapore Management Committee was Caterpillar Singapore’s 50th Anniversary Celebration in 2017.  It took an enormous amount of planning and coordination as well as control of a tight budget.  There were so many moving pieces yet Michelle was methodical, brought forward questions and concerns and was open to change. The result was a fantastic and memorable day for employees and their families, with an opening ceremony graced by a senior Singapore government official, business units offering food and games, the Caterpillar dealer displaying machines and providing simulators for those to test their capabilities, a cafetaria converted to a cookie baking station, the transformation of employees meeting hall to a movie theatre under the stars and talent competitions for kids and employees. Michelle brings this excellence to all events she manages.

“Ridiculously efficient” is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Michelle Goh.  I was particularly impressed by Michelle’s ability to handle even the toughest clients – effortlessly.  That skill often takes years to develop among customer service professionals, but it seemed to come perfectly naturally to her. She would be an asset to any team.

LAURA DE KREIJ

Director Internal Communications at Kerry

Michelle is beyond the best event planner I have ever worked with in more than 20 years. She ran events for me in Hong Kong, Melbourne and Singapore and I attended dozens more that she curated.  1) She manages every single detail through complete project plans and communicates proactively with key stakeholders.  2) She is incredibly visionary and creative – able to turn a boring conference room into a beautiful space for any themed event (CNY, Christmas, International Women’s Day, etc), creates custom adventures in cities around the world (amazing race type of events… at a hotel in Siem Reap, Cambodia for example) and manages hotel/event staff with strong leadership  3) She is an effective negotiator with contacts around the world, ensuring we always got the best price possible. I recommend Michelle without hesitation.

APD Caterpillar

I had the opportunity to work with Michelle and to observe her work. Michelle is an extremely dedicated person who always sets challenging goals for herself.  She then manages to execute those goals to an extremely high level.  She is passionate about her work and brings an energy to the role that few can match.  Michelle understands deadlines and helps ensure they are always met.  

 

However, the most interesting thing I find about Michelle is her creativity.  Michelle has run many events for Caterpillar.  From very small internal team events, through to large company wide efforts and large external events.  These events also had differing assistance and differing levels of budget.  In every case, Michelle finds a way to create a unique experience to the participants.  She also does it by managing the event logistics such that the participants need only focus on the experience, and not the process.

If you are looking for a creative talent that can manage to create an interesting experience, then Michelle is the person you may be looking for.

Michelle helped our team to put together a strategy refresh meeting – to accommodate for travel challenges of our geographically dispersed team, Michelle identified the most cost-effective solution to host a meeting in Cambodia.

 

She managed a program schedule to the Tee, coordinated hotel bookings, flights and airport pick-up arrangements, meeting schedule and networking agendas – all to deliver an effective and safe meeting.  Michelle is well-experienced event manager with a wide network of contacts across Southeast Asia. I would recommend her services.

I have known Michelle Goh for almost twenty years. We were colleagues at Caterpillar.  Michelle was a tremendous asset to our team. As a new employee and throughout her career at Caterpillar, Michelle displayed the character and attitude that you want to have her in your organization.

 

In 2001, as a new employee, she adopted very quickly to the Caterpillar culture. She was a team player, hardworking. She took on assignments without hesitation.  She has a can-do spirit. I remember working with her in organizing a tradeshow. She was out go-to person to arrange logistics, programs and design our displays. Michelle is very innovative, she thinks out of the box.

 

Michelle is a person of integrity. Her character, skills and experience makes her a very valuable addition to any organization.
