effective communication..
is something i've been trying to learn lately. being in corp comms means knowing the hows and being equipped with the right words and right mentality at the right event or circumstance. since i took up the position 2 months ago, i realised that i'm so unequipped. and that's when learning starts!

of course, it would definitely help a million times if your mentor is capable and have 'been-there-done-that'. it feels terrible to be placed under someone who doesn't see the big picture, can't be bothered about the whatsoevers and rely on everyone else to finish all the outstanding tasks. these people have mastered their 'taichi -kongfu' really well and it's really sickening to see how they push their weight and responsibilities around. and after all the tai-chi is done, the work gets piled on my table eventually.

i've been seeing bad examples of work ethics. and i wish i could find a successful role model to learn from. and somehow i realised, i've been swimming in the deep end of the working pool. im trying to float... and yes, i choose to believe that i will really be a great swimmer one day.

maybe all that is part of learning and growing up, isn't it?
