Description
Dr. Indigo receiving the ‘Top 500 Fastest Growing Companies in America Award’ from Inc. Magazine, in 2012. Her company acquired and managed HR projects ranging from $1.5 million to an $18 million-dollar government contract. She was a master at understanding and playing the game until she lost it all in 2016 which caused her to question herself, humanity and even God. The pinnacle of her career was learning how to forgive and let go, which allowed her to step into her true purpose to achieve greater success.
Many professionals spend nearly a life time developing and managing their career within a variety of organizations with incremental success, at best. This book is designed to help you achieve unlimited career success based on transformation, authenticity and sustainable practices. Dr. Indigo’s suggestions and techniques usually discussed behind closed doors among a small percentage of professionals who are privy to executive coaches and career gurus, will catapult readers onto a platform that will allow them to achieve new heights.
Significant career progress is often based on the elusive unwritten rules of the game played throughout every organization across the world. Most companies have an employee manual of rules written by HR and leadership to protect their business interests and vetted by attorneys to ensure they are legally sound. Those rules will help you keep a job, while the unwritten rules will help you become promotable. This final instalment to the Playing by the Unwritten Rules book series is a compilation of knowledge and expertise that Dr. Indigo has garnered over an extensive career journey that includes twists, turns and a story that block buster movies are made of.

Dr. Indigo earned a PhD in Values-Driven Leadership with an emphasis in mental health, which she utilizes to help you become more effective personally and professionally. Her methodology is based on the values of positive psychology, ethics/integrity, servant leadership, etc. These are the cornerstones of her practice and what she instils in her client relationships. Success and values do not have to be diametrically opposed.
Dr. Indigo was born with the gift of insight to inspire others, which she weaves through everything that she does. Despite popular opinion she tells you what you need to know and not what you want to hear. She makes the implicit explicit. She is committed to your success by standing along side of you on life's journey. Her intentions are to support you, guide you and liberate you. This means whatever she says or do is designed for results.
As a renowned international speaker, Dr. Indigo is hilariously honest and refreshingly blunt giving a professional twist that captures her audience's imagination and inspires their spirit. She has spoken at Google-Singapore, International SOS, Asian Strategy & Leadership Institute (ASLI), Singapore International Chamber of Commerce, Icon, British Malaysia Chamber of Commerce, Petrofac, PrimeTime-Singapore, University of Hong Kong, and other organisations, in Asia.
Dr. Indigo has written a three-part book series titled, Playing by the Unwritten Rules. Her books are purchased on Amazon and directly by clients such as Pentagon, Time Warner, LexisNexis Risk Solutions Inc., Turner, Sodexo, NASA, Office of Personnel Management, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Census Bureau and many more. Her books are purchased in quantities as small as one book per order to 1,000 books ordered at one time by clients.
Her mental health book, Dueling Dragons: A Bipolar Journey from the Darkness into the Light is purchased by colleges, mental health facilities, and people throughout the world who are battling or living with someone with a mental health disorder. It is grounded in research and serves as a resource for healing and managing mental dis-ease. Aside from her HR consulting experience, she taught at DeVry University; whereby, she taught Psych 405. This psychology course was designed to help leaders understand themselves and others from a psychological point of view. She has extensive research and experience in mental wellness which is used as a foundation for understanding behaviours to assist professionals in weathering life/career storms and modifying behaviours for improved results.
Dr. Indigo recognized a gap in the marketplace. There are therapist and there are coaches: however, there are few professionals who blend the two expertise. Her life's work is healing through listening, helping people navigate and pouring into others so that they are empowered and capable of taking on life/career challenges. Her perspective and suggestions are relevant and applicable based on her passion. Some authors can only write about success; Dr. Indigo earned it by infusing success practices of the West with wellness philosophies of the East: and, shows people how to do it.
