Dear all, I've been thinking of what we've been going through as life has seen changes and challenges....and the tougher reality is that there'll be even more of them.
My lessons learned from my own reflections come to a few steps of handling changes and challenges that concern Thai 'hearts' ka:
1. Attitude ได้ใจ -- Get started to inspire the community by stressing the common goals from self and family improvement to benefits for students, organization and valuable contribution to the country. We may need to accept this upsetting fact that outsiders help much more than insiders na ka.
Discussing with open-mindedness เปิดใจ to get into people's hearts is crucial. Yet, the most important is for all to feel the threats and the need to move on to the VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complication, Ambiguity) future together! Thais seem to learn much faster when in crisis/ in shock!
In any case, the strengths the community has must be tabled out for them to balance the fear and confidence.
2. Action มีใจทำ -- Set stage to get started for all to take some actions through proactive/active collaboration, urging that each has lots to share. With dead deadlines, the ลงแขก style should be seen in some contexts so creating crisis should be healthy as well.
I know the action part is the toughest but without the hearts of the team, it'll be even tougher, right?
Speed matters so much these days but personally, patience and persistence are integrated when it comes to development of people and organization in the education circle too ka.
3. Appreciation เต็มห้วใจ -- Offer time for reflections so our team can get to appreciate lots of learning and lessons gained especially from mistakes and failure while feeling grateful to have learning platforms and more opportunities to contribute valuably.
Quite a number of people go unnoticed and unrecognized even when diversity means so much for our university community especially in terms of creativity and innovation, it's great to have support through appreciation....for each to feel good about themselves and others to express it in the open.
More often than not, we then focus mainly on actions. My own reflection shows that Attitude and Appreciation should be boosted along the way as well!
In our context, HEART matters for work and life ka!
Happy Vegetarian Festival ka.
