Divide From Within

It is the most dangerous thing to happen to any company. Any company for that matter looks as Unity as their strength, the pillars of sustainability. All these negative elements starts of when the there is a missing link in the vital element of any company's success, and that is TRUST.

I greatly believe in the phrase,'people do not listen to what you say, but they observe to what you are doing.' Hence the term, action lies louder than words.

Now working in this company, I tend to realize that the Board not only divide their people into their own group, worst still you can't even touch on what they are doing, even though you are advising them for the better. Adding salt to injury, the management team even notice that the Board can't even talk to themselves directly. Always have to use FedEx to communicate which eventually give birth to FedUp among the management Team.

If you ever watch Night at the museum 2, the statue of abraham lincoln spoke,'When the house is divided within itself, then it is doom!' I totally agree to this statement.

Sometimes, we do not realize what we are doing and the impact that it has on the company. Should it be bringing a positive impact, then it's good. However, if it is other way around, then rectify the situation. In order to be able to do so, start listening to others who are giving advise and tips to make the company better.
________________________________________________________

1. Work towards building the strength of your company and not the other way around.
2. Believe in team work for no one individual can make things happen on their own. 'We' is always the magic words to use.
3. Communicate clearly and make sure the channel of communication is open to all.
4. LEarn to listen. Listening is the most powerful tools there is in communication. Talk less, listen more.
5. Be genuine to your colleagues and all that work for you. Stop Office politicking or strategizing as you may term it. Strategize in business competition but not inwardly. It destroy the good feeling and eventually the company.
6. Finally, stop dividing your company. You're doom to fail eventually.
