Behave Like a Boss to Add Value

Whether you are a boss now or working for a boss, you need to behave like a boss. Otherwise, you will be bossed around and your boss may find it too expensive to keep you as an employee. The 8 ways to behave like a boss include:
  1. Take Ownership for your work. Do not blame, give excuses or deny your responsibility. Often we see people pushing blame, passing the buck and refuse to acknowledge their mistakes. If you don't take ownership for your work, you will not go all out to improve it. This kind of behaviour certainly irates bosses.
  2. Be Accountable for your work. Do not wait for your boss to chase you for reports. Instead chase your boss for work. 
  3. Be Responsible. That means be able to take responses. Not reacting to what has happened, but taking responsibility for your work
  4. Learn on Your Own, leverage on others but do not rely on them
  5. Think about stakeholders, not just yourself, in making decisions. Stakeholders include the government, society, suppliers, customers, staff and investors
  6. Don't cope with your problems, solve them instead.  Many people are happy with work processes and when there are problems, they will solve the symptoms of the problems. They do not go to the root of the problem. As a result, they do not solve problems, merely cope with them or alleviate the problems. For example, the root cause of sales problems is the lack of hunger in the sales team, but many bosses like to cope with the problem by lowering the selling price. The boss would do better by creating the hunger in the sales team. Our next article will talk about this
  7. Set Goals and Go for them. Bosses are internally driven by their own goals. As an employee, you need to set your own goals and align them with your bosses. If you have no goals, you will not go anywhere as you will be drifting
  8. Service to Others as the Highest Purpose. Bosses serve people, not serve themselves. The best way bosses serve people is to do their job well. As an employee, if you can deliver great value in your work, you are serving others.

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

Kindness as a Way of Life: How Kindness can Reward You 6 Times Over

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives. It goes beyond mere acts of charity or random good deeds. To me, kindness, when practiced as a way of life, becomes a profound philosophy that can shape our interactions with others, the world around us, and even our own well-being. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted aspects of kindness as a way of life, touching on non-violent communication, the limitations of traditional charity, the potential harms of helping, the deliberate cultivation of kindness, and the incredible rewards it brings. 1.       Non-Violent Communication Non-violent communication (NVC) is a key component of practicing kindness as a way of life. Developed by Marshall B. Rosenberg, NVC emphasizes empathetic communication that seeks to understand and connect with others on a deeper level. It encourages active listening, empath

New Age Mobile Numerology

Many people look at 'mobile number change luck' with skepticism, they say, how can just one simple mobile number change create so many changes in a person's life?   Also, the mobile numbers are given to us by random by the telcos, how can our fate be assigned by the telcos at random? Besides, isn't it true that our lives and fates are determined by birth and what we do, how can a small mobile number, which is a modern invention, have any effect?  How about people in the past without mobile numbers?  You mean they don't have a life without mobile numbers, right? One more thing: you cannot just change your mobile number and expect your life to change. If this is so, wouldn't everybody be rich just by changing their mobile numbers? Finally, isn't this kind of fortune-telling thing more of psychology and blind faith than science?   If so, how can we trust anything that is not proven and not science? Today let's resolve all these doubts and I welcome your co
