Lack of Confidence

Archive for the 'rhenald kasali' Category

(Vibiznews - Strategic) - Jakarta, a director of a famous major-Owned State is very big in this nation that once berujar employee-employees "Less Confidence." I quite understand because this is not the dirut career at the company, but imported from outside. Moreover he has been eating sour salt led a number of companies are different.

Spelled out so there are certainly many people who do not receive.

"This is a big company, do not play," said a senior who is very respected in the speech that there decline.

The others continue, "he Emangnya never have a portfolio of this company? Clearly, it's different. "

In short, they do not receive.

That man is likely to deny the facts that they hear. In fact is very true, the majority of the people who work in large companies, most likely the kuper (less association).

How do I not?

95% of time they spent in the company. Round-trip is to and from the same office. Duties outside the city as well. Once landed at the airport, they immediately picked up the protocol office. So interact with taxi drivers not only have the time. Meetings, seminars, lunch or dinner, also conducted troop with office colleagues. In the band also provided office suite for lunch, so that anyone can sing it there. Can also play tennis in the mess office. In fact, not infrequently also provided a house in the office area is closed to other people.

Try to habituate to the (company) with a gaze that is fine. Spouses (pair, their husband or wife) was also found (be) in the office. These cases are also found in the perselingkuhan
work colleagues. And a more interesting again, like all people working in the office: turn-over employees is very low, the average age of employees in the top four positions and all of the campaign came from
deep.

The implication is very clear, the organization be closed from the outside world. All the people speak only their own, the career and personal career friends, facilities that they have received, each provision, and make friends who appear different. They make people more diligent work from them, or have more wealth. If there is a real return home late at night is considered more as penghianat of the achievement. If the boss is close to one of the people who are not members of paguyuban them, will soon disikat.

Many people who say that another person is not honest, the words are merely the reflection of their own deeds. They are easily offended, pleased ngomong negative on the back, do not dare to hold the light, happy to obstruct the achievement, and they consider themselves the most moral.

Indeed, the facts: They do not know what is actually happening in the middle out there. They only grumble, grumble, but they know that they are indeed the most dikeluhkan?

Of course there are still people who do not so in the institutions named large. They work hard, a lot of gaul out and so the potential leaders. However, they are often marginalized.

Facts of this issue is the biggest in the changes. People who never see the light will feel disturbed when opening a window on the edge there. They immediately rant're closed. They ignore the market, they themselves feel they know the most. And they are abandoned, and even be ridiculed by the market (consumers).

The solution is simple: Open all the windows so that fresh air right in, turn on the lamp has been in power off, and the door wide-open wide and let the people outside the entrance to here, and let them participate in the play outside. Then open training outside, leave your training followed by employees / executives from outside your office. Make all the people interact, and hapuskan facilities paguyuban so that they all want to also interact outside.

After unloading the organizational structure of a closed, correct cultural organizations and protect the people not to be new with the old people. Wide association is important to interpret capital evolution. Something that changes can not be understood by those who hide in only tempurungnya each. Wide association will raise the confidence to remove prejudice and prejudice-negative. Look mugginess and they will cry and cry. But that is the last opportunity for them to do that.

Congratulations cause chaos, for good.

The failure of the strategy

By : M. Suyanto

Anthony Robbins in his book Unlimited Power, says that most people in our culture diprogramkan afraid to fail. In fact, we all want something but never get the other. We all have failed in the test, suffering in love that makes the frustration does not work, menyususn business plan, which then failed. Said the results "that digunan successful people, they do not see failure. They do not believe in failure. That they do not count.
People always get the kind of successful results. Super-successful success of our culture is not the person who does not fail, but people who know that they try something and do not get what they want, they get a learning experience. They use what they have learned and try something else only. They take new actions and new results. Abraham Lincoln is not a failure of at least 11 before becoming President. Asa Candler buyer the right packaging Coca-Cola had failed to drink at the soda factory in 1899. Steve Jobs does not license the Macintosh operating system to other parties failed to become the world's operating system that is now held by Microsoft, even Steve Jobs had didepak itself from Apple. Akio Morita of Sony also have failed because they did not want the Betamax video melesensikan better than a VHS made Matshushita. Sekarng video is VHS, because Matshushita would license the technology to other parties. Warren Bennis of Xerox had failed because it decided not to sell the PC, and Xerox have better technology than the other. Henry Ford failed in producing and marketing the ships and aircraft compared with the produce and market the car. Soichiro Honda said that other people know that success is only about 1% while 99% of the failure is unknown persons.
One of the assets that are useful today than yesterday is a day of experience. People afraid to fail will not behave for something that may not be effective. This is what prevents them from taking action that can actually guarantee that they desire. People who believe that the failure is almost guaranteed regular-pedestrian existence. Failure is not something that the main dipersepsikan by the people who achieve greatness. They do not terpuruk by failure. They do not invest emotionally-negative emotion to something that is not effective. So there is no failure, but that there is a result that does not comply with what we want.
