My Signature Talents

The StrengthFinder's test revealed that my 5 signature talents are:

1) Responsibility
2) Empathy
3) Developer
4) Adaptabilty
5) Individualisation

I agree with 3 out of 5 when i read the description the first time round. when i read about 'developer', i felt i wasn't really a developer. if yes, i could have been able to see the potential in i-know-who and would have assisted her development greatly.

anyway, all 5 talents/characteristics have a common theme. they revolves around people. maybe i should do something related to people...i like to work in teams and i like the things to work on to have a deadline, a completion point, such that when it is completed, we would have a celebration! celebration of completing the project and also rewarding everybody's effort. it got to be a team thing such that the process is memorable! examples i could think of will be campcraft comp, projects during TIP... tough, gruelling process to get things done. but once achieved, the feeling of satisfaction and comradeship!

i told dear recently i would like to join activity whereby i can work in a team. he suggested to ask me go ask shuzhen cos she's always involved in plays. that's an excellent idea! i am just worried about time allocation. on top of that, i surfed the nvpc website. saw this volunteer opportunity at a youth camp in may. i'll probably join that .. just wondering if dear is keen to do it with me.

had been flipping the classifieds... just checking out what the job mkt is looking for. of course, i can't really leave my existing job now. cos it's still neither here nor there. so i'll need to fine-tune my job to exploit my strengths. concentrate more on HR stuff? i'm getting in new staff.. so i can form a team?

marketing is my job. marketing... marketing... what constitutes marketing? biz devt? g had already identified potential opportunities in mim, cim. i was supposed to find out more about the industry, who are the players and where they are. all these are basically searching and putting the data in place. if i am just going to do these, it is so not value-adding. my sales coordinator will probably do these searching and data. i'll definitely need to read up more on the industry before giving the task to my sales coordinator. so, after that, i analyze her data? come up with a proposal? wad analysis? i guess it's for sure that we are going into the market. so the analysis should be where's the gap? i asked if g wanted to portray ourselves as a lower-cost manufacturer compared to USA...
