LEADERSHIP MAVEN | SPEAKER | AUTHOR | ENTREPRENEUR 

Hi! I am Malvin.

As a start-up team leader for over 12 years in advertising, marketing, business development and professional training, I learned that real leaders don’t have escape plan. They jump into their passion and fly.

My first job as a sales person in a publishing company was to rove around the metro and check if my book titles were well displayed in the bookstore shelves. This is when I also learned to value books as a companion for personal growth. Today, I am living my passion to inspire others to pursue their passion, motivate people to create value and help entrepreneurs grow their business.

I worked with publishing, events, advertising and digital marketing companies. As a project manager, I had the opportunity to work with notable brands- food, distribution, industrial designs and start ups.  I am an accredited consultant of Asian Development Bank for developing IT systems and web portals. With this, I spearheaded a project with the Department of Labor and Employment and developed an online employment regulations portal.

Handling marketing problems taught me a lot of lessons about people, technology and business. Then, I found myself sharing those stories to my audience.

I never thought I that I can speak in front of an audience until an opportunity came that I shared the stage and talked about servant leadership with top-ranked public speaker Mr. Boris Joaquin at Max’s Restaurant’s Managers Convention in 2013. I received such a warm recognition from the client. I never thought I could do public speaking with confidence. It was a turning point for me.

One of the training programs that had an impact in my life is Lead Like Jesus (The Servant Leader Workshop), a transformational leadership module developed by Ken Blanchard, which I also served as an accredited workshop facilitator. It taught me the importance of personal leadership in the transformational leadership cycle and the language of real leadership is service to others.

I was invited to speak to educational institutions such as Ramon Pascual Institute, Lyceum of the Philippines- Cavite, Abada College- Mindoro, Casiguran National High School, Baler National High School, Polytechnic University of the Philippines- Paranaque, Manila, Taguig and San Pedro Campuses and University of Perpetual Help System-DALTA. I talk about leadership, strategic marketing, personal growth, work excellence and entrepreneurship. It is my mission to inspire and equip students to become global leaders. I disturb working professionals’ complacency and challenge them to become a star performer in the workplace. I didn’t know that I was doing something remarkable until it was recognized. In February 2017, I received the KAMASKOM Alumni Icon Award from my Alma Mater, initiated by my college professors. 

In partnership with AIB Training, I’ve been a regular resource speaker of Manila Bulletin’s Career and Job Fair, inspiring job seekers to build their personal brand online and standout during job interviews.  

Fueled by my mission, I created a community platform for personal growth and coaching, Perfect Start Coach, which will be the go-to place for every working professional who seeks professional advancement, career shift coaching and entrepreneurial mentoring.  

I am a firm believer of personal growth.  In my entire decade of professional experience, I have seen a lot of people working too hard to earn a living, get the top position in the organization, be famous and live like a billionaire. But, what really drives us each day? Tough question, right? That’s why, I published my first book Growth Chase. Click this for more info: Growth Chase book
