First Blog

The first day in setting up the BLOG and getting to know new things about BLOGGING.

First and foremost, lets get introduced.
I am Sohailah and attached to UEM Land Bhd within the UEM Group of Companies, Malaysia. Currently based in Johor, a state in the southern most of Malaysia

Attended a training and at the end of the LOC training on April 10, 2008, I felt really geared up for any changes that's possible. Concerns were aplenty and none were easy.

Had to attend another 2 days conference immediately after the training and therefore the discussions with my staff within my dept was only done on April 14. In fact a meeting with BCA Singapore was earlier but I was already disseminating some of what was learnt into the meeting.
During the staff meeting, I briefed them about the possible changes that we need to seek. One thing for sure, I do get positive feedback and support from them.
We were discussing about how to implement the change throughout the company, rather than the dept.
We are a new setup and a lot needs to still be implemented.

Last week was another 2 1/2 days of Excellence Conference by the Group. It was truly enlightening and sets the momentum for things to come.
A few sessions deals with what I had gathered from the LOC training and find it intriguing as the terms, statements, phrases mentioned, were familiar. A few of the other participants were there and we exchanged our thoughts on it as well.

The main points noted from the conference were:

• Developing Passion in the Team
  
• Failure To Implement (FTI)
• Insanity is doing the same thing over & over again but expecting different results
• Precision in Timing
  
• Transknowformance (Transforming Knowledge into Performance)
• Knowledge Management
• Unlearn & Relearn

With the Top Management support in Quality, Safety, Health & Environment, we can succeed in these changes
