Reply Letter to The Staff

Dear Colleagues,

I read the letter that you wrote to me that day (refer to here) over 3 times, and this letter is in reply to what you wrote.

Yes, I am happy to hear that you guys do not want lesser work for more pay; you guys prefer me as your boss to be a better boss. I fully agree with you that we are all mirrors: bad employees merely reflect bad boss and if the boss becomes better, the employees too become better.

As a start, I have enrolled myself in short effective leadership and management courses, one of them has the strange title called Leadership with Sun Zi Art of War.  I will be going for one management course every month from now till December 2015.  I too will be sending you guys to these 13 courses:
  1. Building Relationships at Work
  2. Dealing with Difficult People
  3. Effective Communication
  4. Effective Support Staff
  5. Excellent Team Members
  6. Email Etiquette
  7. High Value Employees
  8. Productivity From The Inside
  9. Problem Solving with Sun Tzu Art of War
  10. Service From the Heart
  11. Time Management Strategies
  12. Turning Stress into Success
  13. Understanding Your Boss
Details of these courses can be found here.  As we are running a business and not a charity, I expect all of you to apply the ideas learnt in the courses and earn a profit in excess of the course fees.  All of you must also do PAP - Profit Action Plan (details at here).

I hope that after attending these courses, you will be better employees.  I of course will also become a better boss when I have attended my management and leadership courses.

Regards,
Your Boss

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
