Initiatives

It’s important to fill opportunities gaps, put a lot of effort into understanding, inquiring, reasoning, to accelerate growth and lead business transformation.

Now with the uncertainty around with increasing pace of changes, everything is interconnected and the ecosystem becomes more interdependent and dynamic than ever. There are volatile market situations, extreme competitions, emerging technology trends; there are so many factors that need to be considered in order to both understand and handle complexity to make paradigm shifts.

A lot of understanding with the greatest contribution to humanity would be taking the time and the sincere effort: Humans aren't as good as we should be in our capacity to empathize with the feelings and thoughts of others. Things are complex; people are complex, and the world is complex. Therefore, walk in the shoes of the person you're judging. Everyone has something to offer, and it is up to us to allow an equal giving and taking.

Put a lot of effort into understanding the surroundings. Particularly when you look at a situation and wonder how on earth things could have evolved in such a way, this is the clue that you should first seek to understand, then being understood, for building trust. The business leaders and their team cannot afford to be unprepared for the challenges facing them. So business leaders can see possibilities before others, and they can also tackle great challenges with grand consequences over long time spans.

A lot of inquiries can be initiated to make sound judgment and solve problems thoroughly: If there are no questions, there will be no answers. The more we question, the more we know, we are able to learn and thereafter we teach and spread our learning. The attitude behind the questions is very important. Is the attitude behind questioning seeking involvement? Is it sincere enough to respect coworkers' knowledge & inviting contributions? Practice asking good questions and get input before providing opinions and listen before you speak.

Leaders and professionals with learning agile have always been intrigued and they have always asked questions. It's not a matter of whether you should ask or tell more. It's important to do what is right in a situation. It’s the attitude and trust that glue up questions and answers, in helping people to think deeper, and collect invaluable information in order to solve problems comprehensively.

A lot of gray areas that need to be understood for striking the right balance in leading progress: "Unknown” is inherent in today’s business dynamic and it is often caused by the nature of diversity. It’s unpredictable and lacks a stable pattern or order. Information is overwhelming, business “greyscale” areas are often murky, and even frightening. To survive and thrive amid constant changes, companies must learn how to manage the “shade of gray” due to blurred territories and ambiguous conditions.

There isn't always a right or wrong choice in any situation and there are a lot of grays. In order to explore gray areas thoroughly, people can make further inquiries by diagnosing the root causes of problems and spend enough time on scrutinizing varying circumstances. Philosophically, people are seeking to unpuzzle mysteries and paradoxes through exploring gray areas, for which there are no absolute “right & wrong” answers to certain questions, but there are a lot of research worth taking.

It is the paradigm shift from information scarcity in the industrial age to knowledge abundance in the digital era. There are opportunities and risks, confusions and frustrations on the way. The problem is not uncertainty rather, it is unpreparedness towards the efficient handling of uncertainty. Either individually or at the organizational level, there are lots of smarts, lots of ability, and lots of attitudes - very, very little wisdom. it’s important to fill opportunities gaps, put a lot of effort into understanding, inquiring, reasoning, to accelerate growth and lead business transformation.
