People Performance

What People Performance does

People Performance (legally PPL Performance Sdn Bhd) is a privately held, founder-led consulting and training firm founded in 2012 in Malaysia by Isaac Selvaraj Peter, an engineer-turned-organisation development practitioner. The company delivers three primary service lines: Organisation Development Tools (diagnostic and assessment-based interventions), Customised Learning Workshops (on-site, tailored programs), and Behavioural Change Programs (longer-form culture and leadership transformation). It also runs a public workshop catalogue spanning Leadership, Culture, and Team Development, structured around an internal Team Play / Team Learn / Team Strategise taxonomy, and in November 2024 launched the Learning Business Partner Certified Professional certification program targeting HR and L&D buyers. A Micro Learning LMS portal at lms.ppl-performance.com extends delivery into self-paced digital content.

The firm operates from Malaysia (PPL Performance Sdn Bhd) and Singapore (People Performance Pte Ltd, UEN 201135241N, designated as HQ at 100 Peck Seah Street), and is an HRDCorp-registered training provider in Malaysia, which allows clients to draw on employer-funded training budgets. Its disclosed client base includes large, named enterprises across financial services, energy, industrial, hospitality, and public-sector buyers — Changi Airport Group, OCBC, INSEAD, Shangri-La, SP Group, IRAS, CPF, PETRONAS, American Express, Caterpillar, TechnipFMC, Samsung, Nike, the Ritz-Carlton, JW Marriott, CTOS, AIA, and Huawei among them. The business is a classic services model: revenue is generated from fee-for-service workshops, customised programs, and the new certification program; pricing is not publicly disclosed, and there is no software/SaaS revenue line. People Performance remains entirely founder-owned, has raised no external funding, and operates with 1–10 employees, consistent with a specialist boutique consultancy rather than a scaled platform business.

Its approach of turning leadership content into repeatable certified programs directly parallels People Performance's Learning Business Partner certification strategy.
