Patience Practice and Talent Retention

 Hello everyone! I listened to Eighthalf podcast episodes 1765-1766 which are drawn from the book, ‘Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals’ by Oliver Burkeman.

Several things made me feel like sharing ka!

First, patience is very much needed in the social media era. So the author gives these two approaches ka:

·        Develop capabilities to deal with problems instead of running away…..we need to accept that our lives have to confront a variety of  issues!

·        Embrace radical incrementalism it’ll be better after repeating the tasks as our physical adaptation

Harvard University teaches a course on ‘Art Appreciation’, asking students to go to a museum to select any piece of work that he/she prefers and take time to look carefully at the art piece. This helps them become more focused with no distractions. Obviously, quite a few could be quite restless and this is a real good exercise to appreciate art and learn how we react to our restlessness too na ka.  

Second: Attract the talented by AMP+S to retain them with the organizations

·        Autonomy – give the talented specific targets/ goals and let them discover how on their own because they basically enjoy freedom!

·        Mastery – intelligent workers know they will excel from being assigned challenging projects or being surrounded by a team with smart members for them to learn from ka.

·        Purpose – know ‘why’ especially about their projects to do good of the society….feeling proud of being contributive…and the last one is added by Khun Tong Kaweewut –the podcaster himself ka,

·        Support – free to think and act, yet get support when needed, physically and emotionally

For these 4 bullets, which is most important to you or your organization or the Thai context ka?
