Mindset Breakthrough Workshop

i've attended a Mindset Breakthrough Workshop @ Petronas Management Training Centre for da past 2 days. it was a real fun besides being meaningful for my career advancement.

day 1
_____

a norm for any course - ice breaking. sounds unnecessary for colleagues? well, we don't really know each other or even not at all. ahaha.can't label myself as 'nurul' as i alwiz did coz there's 1 more 'nurul'. jz in front of me.

...........our 1st activity was a video show.

Tan Sri Hassan got his own reason for this 'mindset change'.
" if we keep on going complacent, one day we might disappear". i became conscious for a while.

..........brain pattern was our 2nd play. we're asked to pick 7 cards.

how? those cards represent 1 word & jz pick ur personality matches. intuitive, strategic, sensitive, organised, curious, theorizes & quantifies were my choices. da instruction was then to count up what color we had most.
well, those actually were in colours which i didnt realize while picking up.
we were then grouped according to color - blue, green, yellow & red.
found myself as yellow which represented by intuitive, strategic & curious.
we are all 6 in group.
i managed to jot down these meanings. hmm..let's c whether they suit me. ;p

2. Strategic - likes to draw up plan & policies for future resource utilization

2. yellow (creators) - creative, conceptual, synthesizer, holistic, artistic

3. green (evaluators) - evaluative, planner, organised, controlled, detailed-oriented

4. red (activators) - action oriented, talkative, musical, emotional, interpersonal

actually this is called brain pattern which everybody own da all four.
just da dominance is differ.
after going thru this activity, we saw people by colours. ahaha.

.............."Theme of Value" - our 3rd lesson.

divided into 3 groups, we were assigned with an office project comprise of retail & residential. this task supposed to be done by this day but it's behind schedule already. by hook/by crook, da presentation must begin @ 8.30 a.m on da following day. so then we got 2 options; to come early or stay back. option no.2 became majority. nway, both were jz ok for me. 2 hrs spent for designing, costing, selecting materials & da meticuluos 1 - model making! our group was da most diligent to make up until 7 p.m. gosh! costing! no one else - i was da only to play with figures. tonite! huk3..

day 2

______

as early as 8, i reached da centre with an amuse-feeling for da presentation. it turned to be a shocking alarm dat i realize my module...& costing..vitally, were left @ home. 1st thing came to my mind was to return for dat. but rationally thinking, in a very calm mode, i sat & work out all da figures again. my sacrifice for breakfast time.

b4 presentation, a recap for yesterday lesson was done thru a game called '007'. we've been given some instruction & those who failed was da 1 to speak up. & da last 3 person remained in da game would be rewarded. one after one was out. guess what, da remaining participant were me & da other 2 guys. one chocolate for me. =)

nway, presentation time was smoothly running for everybody. & it's not bout winning, it's teamwork. yeah! da fun was the teases from other groups...our design was alike a birthday cake. ahaks.

............da 4th activity was really fun too.

how may unit can be selled then u're da winner. no matter what to do. - dats da mission. i can't imagine how but we came 1st to promote. i remember of singing along our own-composed song. ahaha. da rooms was entirely noisy & boisterous with laughs. cool.

........... we became a factory for the 5th activity.

da instruction was to form sev. depts; namely production, transporter, process, QA/QC & sales & marketing. da play began with an instruction from client then every dept. were to work on producing his needs. kind of unique game with 'ping pong' play & most importantly - we did our great job by identifying da weaknesses, followed by effective solutions. voila!

...........wrap out - this was da last.

we formed a circle & everybody were to say something esp. on what has been gained thru this workshop. sure enough it was full with opinions & sentiments too..grounded by sweet songs..huk3..i concluded dat 'mindset change' is depends on our ownself. with global development & mind, we'll be left behind to stay put. hmm...

prediction vs reality

once, i realize i only got pieces from da whole

something to share

WHY EMPLOYEES LEAVE ORGANISATIONS ?
by: Azim Premji, CEO- Wipro

Every company faces the problem of people leaving the company for better pay or profile.
Early this year, Mark, a senior software designer, got an offer from a prestigious international firm to work in its India operations developing specialized software. He was thrilled by the offer.

He had heard a lot about the CEO. The salary was great. The company had all the right systems
in place employee-friendly human resources (HR) policies, a spanking new office,and the very best technology,even a canteen that served superb food.

Twice Mark was sent abroad for training. "My learning curve is the sharpest it's ever been,"
he said soon after he joined. Last week, less than eight months after he joined, Mark walked out of the job. Why did this talented employee leave ?

Arun quit for the same reason that drives many good people away.
The answer lies in one of the largest studies undertaken by the Gallup Organization.
The study surveyed over a million employees and 80,000 managers and was published in a book called "First Break All The Rules". It came up with this surprising finding:

If you're losing good people, look to their immediate boss ..
Immediate boss is the reason people stay and thrive in an organization.
And he 's the reason why people leave...
When people leave they take knowledge,experience and contacts with them,
straight to the competition.

"People leave managers not companies," write the authors Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman. Mostly manager drives people away?

HR experts say that of all the abuses, employees find humiliation the most intolerable.
The first time, an employee may not leave,but a thought has been planted.
The second time, that thought gets strengthened. The third time, he looks for another job.

When people cannot retort openly in anger, they do so by passive aggression.
By digging their heels in and slowing down.
By doing only what they are told to do and no more.
By omitting to give the boss crucial information.
Dev says: "If you work for a jerk, you basically want to get him into trouble.
You don 't have your heart and soul in the job."

Different managers can stress out employees in different ways - by being too controlling,
too suspicious,too pushy, too critical, but they forget that workers are not fixed assets, they are free agents. When this goes on too long, an employee will quit - often over a trivial issue.

Talented men live... Dead wood doesn't...

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies within us while we live...
