Ok, this is the last Leo Club event which i will organized, i supposed, since i was consider retired after my term 08-09.
Basically i need to organized this camp for incoming committees, so i gather around my fellow old BOD from their hometown for this project. For me, this is a meaningful camp since it can enclose the relationship amongs BOD. We will make them complete aall the tough team building games. They will go through forming, norming, performing, maybe quarelling, but after they finally compete all the challanges, they will feel that their relationship will be closer than before. The purpose of this camp itself is to develop the trust, team work, leadership, communicationship and other soft skills which they can apply in their daily life, even after they graduated.
I feel so stress at the 1st since i am the only 1 who came back early while other aold BOD not here yet and for those who still here, they graduated and got work already. Until 2 days ago, Wei Kean, Cha Ling, and Yong Bin came tomy house. Guess what? we only need 1 and half hour to came out with the 1st draft of program flow. Job should be delegated. We must not worry to share a responsibility. I asked them"How come previous event meeting always take 2 hour and even more?""how come previous event meeting need to be conduct over and over agaon without reach to a final decisiom?" Yong Bin said "Because that time there are alot of people, alot of opinion, some more, all the decision we made need to go through our upper level of people according the hierarchy. We need to take responsibility towards them. Now we don't need to report or taking responsibility to anyone, just ourselves"
I wonder the top management can get things settled easily over a lunch or a tea break. From this, my promise to become a BOSS become stronger. I promise that i must be 1.
This also remind me to 1 of the team building games during youth empowerment camp. Dr Sia told us "when people up there busy discussing and arquing, they forgot their team members are strunggling and suffering down there. All they know is discuss and discuss then when they make any changes, they just order and people down there need to start from the beginning according to what their Boss want them to do"
When 1 day, i become a president, i will expect all the management level in my company,; all the CEO, all the managers from all branches to attend team building games, so that they will aware about all this... very important message through these games. I don't want just be a boss for them, i want to be a teacher, a life coach that can lead them, to have a better life; not only in term of career, but also a leader who manage to change them; in their standard of living, in their inner value.
