    I recently read the Maxwell Leadership Bible on Galatians 2 and came across John’s note “Confrontation: Paul Exhibits Integrity with Peter”, which outlines 10 principles for confrontation, which I think is so good that I must share this out. I want to emphasise, as John stated too, the importance of setting aside personal preferences and thinking…

    I co-wrote the above using my brain and also asked the Claude-3-Haiku Large Language Model to polish the text by changing synonyms, adjectives and other minor changes to make my writing more consistent with high-quality literature, without changing the meaning. Finally checked and fixed some mistakes according to Grammarly, achieving a high score of 86.…

    Today, I was reading Tim Elmore’s “A New Kind of Diversity”. In Chapter 10, he presents a compelling case study that challenges conventional thinking on management conflict, and by extending, making difficult choices.

    For everything that cannot be done right, there is always a reason. I am guilty of it too. “Reason” is pretty personal and valid. Time, cost, changes, or whatever. The problem is, reasons are only valid until someone came tearing them apart. For someone, the reason is an opportunity in disguise. The world rewards people…

    Data is like fire. It is a great servant and a terrible master. As many are celebrating data-based decision-making, I want to remind myself and everyone else that many bad decisions are made because of data misuse. There are 2 main reasons for my argument. First. Data is like statistics. They are subject to individual…

    By no means applicable to all, but I believe this is applicable to many. When you are tense, like, during an interview or emergency situation, your brain fired up at rocket speed to scan all your experience. And in some case your instinct as well – like it tell you to run immediately when you…
