Management Philosophy

What is your management philosophy?

I believe in people. I do not see people as resources. I see people as people. People with names, families, interest and motivation levels. I believe that a strongly motivated and developed team is a team that delivers. And my challenge is how to motivate these people by ensuring they get the necessary tools to deliver and a vision to follow.

I believe managing is a never ending quest of learning. I believe that no matter how high you are, you must always be humble because there's always a lesson to learn even if it comes from the most junior team member. And that's exactly what makes management interesting, there's always a new experience to learn.

I believe in seeing the big picture. That there's always a bigger picture compared to the bigger picture you have at your level. What may not benefit you may benefit the overall company. And I believe you must always seek that big picture to help you understand where others are coming from. To be understood, you first must understand. Before you judge others, put yourself in their shoes and maybe you won't be so judgmental anymore.

What I've learned so far

1. Things can change overtime. One minute your working on the highlights, the next minute you're in the lowlights
2. Change is hard. But it's worst if you try to resist it.
3. The higher you go, the lonelier it gets.
