Luke 6:27-38

here's a snippet of yesterday's gospel readings which i feel came at such timely event...

'But i say to you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you.
Bless those who curse you and pray for those who treat u badly. To the one who strikes you on the cheek, turn the other cheek; from the one who takes your coat, do not keep back your shirt. Give to the one who asks and if anyone has taken something from you, do not demand it back.

Do to others as your would have others do to you. If you love only those who love you, what kind of graciousness is yours? Even sinners love those who love them. If you do favours to those who are good to you, what kind of graciousness is yours? Even sinners do the same. If you lend only when you expect to receive, what kind of graciousness is yours? For sinners also lend to sinners, expecting to receive something in return.

But love your enemies and do good to them, and lend when there is nothing to expect in return. Then your reward will be great and you will be sons and daughters of the Most High. For he is kind towards the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful just as your Father is merciful.

Don't be a judge of others and you will not be judged; do not condemn and you will not be condemned; forgive and you will be forgiven; give and it will be given to you, and you will receive in your sack good measure, pressed down, full and running over. For the measure you give will be the measure you receive back.'

smthg to tink abt..
is forgiveness so hard to come by these days?
the world is selfish and cruel.

top 10 strategies for an innovative culture

just read an article abt how Singapore orgs lack innovation and risk-takers.
absolutely agree with this article.
it even provides top 10 strategies for orgs to move away from such problems and innovate themselves to embrace the new workforce.
as the new generations arise to take on local and global challenges,
i believe that orgs locally need to readjust themselves and learn to cope not jus business wise but also how to better manage its pple.
human resource.. humans as a resource to the org or humans as a relation to the org.
there is a vast difference in that statement.
in my lessons so far, i'm realising the increasing importance of time mgmt and pple mgmt.
managing pple is always the right way to go.
are you productivity oriented or pple oriented?
true, there must be a balance. but isnt it always better to win pple over 1st.
smart pple hire smarter pple to work for them.
local bosses need to learn to manage risk as risk is inevitible in businesses. learn to manage it, not avoid it. u wont get anywhere dat way.
work environment is vital too for pple to feel creativity.
jus like leadership, creativity can be nurtured as well. not everyone is jus born naturally smart or naturally talented. some r very lucky, but nt all.
therefore it is important to share skills and knowledge and always be ready and willing to pick up new things.
seeing pictures frm inside the office of Ogilvy - South Korea, it has come to my realisation that work environments r trully important in encouraging the constant flow of ideas.
ideas are meant to be worked on and nt jus trampled and disregarded.
large spaces for pple to interact with comfy cushions and carpets, wif cafes and bars in the office will make it so much easier for pple to have meetings in a not so up tight manner such as the boardroom.
perhaps some particular industries which require less creative pple can still stick to the old boring mundane board room idea.
however in the field of mktg, advertising, perhaps even hospitality and tourism, even engineering sometimes cud use some interesting ways to conduct their meetings.
in a more relaxed environment.

hopefully singapore will gear ourselves towards having a more gracious and open society.
we need to work on open communication and feed back so as to be able to improve and innovate.
move away from being too "Asian".. the whole hierarchy idea and 'who's the boss' work culture.
