<p>Hello, I am Bon Prisa Jakobsen, Executive Coach, Corporate Trainer and Online Content Creator.</p>
<p>We have learnt 5 key skills to help us work as a team, most of which are about self-awareness. Now for 6-10, they are going to be about communicating with others.</p>
<h2>6. Understand Other People's Strengths</h2>
<p>Sixth, understand other people's strengths.</p>
<p>Actually, this is quite automatic. If you understand yourself, you'll start to see strengths in other people. Don't just look at what they're not good at.</p>
<p>Imagine if someone tells you, "You don't look so confident when you speak." They would be highlighting a weakness. But if they came up and said "You're such a detailed planner. I really like your work. It's so easy to follow." When someone recognizes your strengths, you are happy to work with them. Who would you prefer to work with? Of course, people who see the good in us.</p>
<p>If we find what each team member is good at, not only do they love us but we will also know, when the team needs specific skills, who to go to.</p>
<p>For example, I have a deadline which requires work to be urgently completed. We need to rush to complete the project. We know that Jang's strength is public speaking. "Jang, You speak so well, please help.". Or a client doesn't like a proposed idea. We need a revision today. We know Bom is a very creative person. Bom, can you help me?</p>
<p>First, they get to do good for the team. Second, they'll be proud to use their strengths. Giving someone the chance to feel proud of themselves is the best gift you can ever give them.</p>
<h2>7. Communication and Teamwork</h2>
<p>The 7th key is communication; communicating with the team to align goals. Where are we today? What direction are we going in? Communication is the most important thing.</p>
<p>Have you ever watched a cooking show? The Chef working in the kitchen is yelling all the time, shouting "the fish is almost cooked, where are the vegetables? How long before we can serve? The gravy must come at the same time!". If they don't communicate with each other, the fish may arrive first, stand around and go dry. The gravy will thicken while it's waiting for the vegetables.</p>
<p>Team communication is essential. It's vital.</p>
<h2>8. Be Responsible For Your Work</h2>
<p>The eighth key is responsibility. Let's say you have all 7 skills so far, but you lack responsibility for your work. You compliment other people's strengths but your own work is never finished. No-one will want to work with you.</p>
<p>So it's really important to be responsible for your own work; to be accountable.</p>
<h2>9. Know Their Language</h2>
<p>Number 9; learn each other's language. Of course, in Thailand our language is Thai, but here we are talking about &ldquo;language&rdquo; in a different context.</p>
<p>For example, one person may be analytical; they hear some news and start analyzing different scenarios; what could have happened. That means this person likes reasoning and evidence. When you talk with them you need to present both valid reasoning and evidence. For example, if you said "I think this idea is better", they will say "OK, but where's the evidence?". So you need to know that they like evidence.</p>
<p>Some people have a lot of empathy and are good at understanding people's feelings. So, when you talk to them, you should use emotional language. For example, "I'm uncomfortable doing this because I'm not good at it". "Uncomfortable" would be the keyword for someone with empathy, because they relate to emotions well.</p>
<p>For some, language may be small things. I've got a friend who works in an organization and she says her boss really likes shredded pork. When she&rsquo;s in meetings with her boss, she brings shredded pork with her.</p>
<p>This is understanding each other's language, by knowing people's likes and dislikes. Trust me, when you talk in their language, the conversation will be easy.</p>
<h2>10. Use Positive Words</h2>
<p>Number 10, the last take home, is to use positive words.</p>
<p>Inject positive psychology into your work. Positive psychology is about using positive words. For example, instead of saying that the result is "awful", lose "awful" in favor of "The results show there's room for improvement". It's more encouraging.</p>
<p>Or instead of saying, "This project is hard", we can change "hard" to "challenging". We can say, "This project is challenging". You feel it when it's spoken, right? It fuels us to do the task.</p>
<p>So try to notice when someone says something that makes you feel empowered. Store those words to use among your team, because these words are the fuel that ignites your team.</p>
<h2>Becoming a Good Team Player</h2>
<p>So these are the 10 keys that will help people on the team love you and you to accept yourself.</p>
<p>It's easy. You just need to know the skills you have that can help the team, including empathy; understanding others. Let other people shine with their skills, be responsible for your work, and reach out to team members when you can. Use positive language among your team, and keep communication flowing all the time.</p>
<p>That's it! The team will be effective and everyone in the team will love each other. You could be the superstar of the team who everyone loves and accepts.</p>

Communication Skills for Team Players Script

<p>Know yourself. Know your strengths and your weaknesses, to increase teamwork efficiency.</p>
<p>Believe it or not, if you ask someone to name the thing that makes them most uncomfortable at work, most will say it's not the work itself but the people; their bosses or their colleagues.</p>
<p>When we work as a team, there can be communication issues, conflicts of thought or style. But have you ever noticed that person in the workplace who is the popular superstar of the team, and adored by everyone? That person has certain skills. The good news is those skills can be learned.</p>
<p><strong>Hello, I am Bon Prisa Jakobsen. Executive Coach, Corporate Trainer and Online Content Creator.</strong></p>
<p>Most of my work helps people to better understand themselves by knowing their strengths and weaknesses. , including how to talk in public, to help make people become more confident in themselves. I am also an executive coach. This involves building confidence and helping executives reflect and achieve more clarity in leading their respective organizations.</p>
<h2>Identify Your Skills</h2>
<p>Some say those who can communicate well are born with this talent. It's God's gift. I beg to differ. Otherwise, there wouldn't be schools for communication or public speaking.</p>
<p>These skills can be learned. Some may be more lucky than others; their upbringing, their lives, and the environment force them to use their communication skills. That's why they are good at speaking because they have been using that skill. Some families don't really communicate or lack social circles, so they are not good at speaking. That said, skills are there to be developed. I believe in human potential to overcome anything.</p>
<p>Throughout my 10 years of work, training or coaching, what I see in a person who is widely accepted in the team is that they possess common skills. Let me call them the key skills that will make a person work smoothly in a team. We'll talk about those skills here on CI Talks.</p>
<h2>Be the Ultimate Team Player at Work</h2>
<h3>Believe in Teamwork</h3>
<p>First is to believe in teamwork. Why? Your beliefs are your thoughts. Thoughts lead to feelings and feelings lead to behaviors.</p>
<p>Let's say you prefer going solo, you perform when you do things by yourself. How will your behavior be? It's likely you don't communicate, avoid people and work alone. But when you believe teamwork is great and that it'll help you go far, It'll be reflected in your behavior. You will cooperate, talk, consult and will do anything to make the team run more smoothly. Therefore, believing that teamwork is better than working alone is very important.</p>
<h3>Know Your Strengths</h3>
<p>Second is to know your strengths. You need to know what talents you have. These talents need nurturing. Talents that you are born with may not have been realized or developed yet. It means that when you use those skills, you may still have a blind spot. There may be angles that you miss whilst using those skills. Some people are naturally drawn to responsibility. Their blind spot may be overwork and no family time. To overcome these blind spots, you need to understand your talents and transform them into strengths.</p>
<h3>Understand your Strengths</h3>
<p>Third is to understand your strengths. Many don't know their strengths or selling points. There are 3 ways to better understand yourself.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>1- Ask a friend</strong><br />First, find your strengths via friends and people around you because they see us in ways that we do not see ourselves. They can point out what you do well. For example, they may say you are good at taking care of people and offering advice. You see that your strength is helping others. You can also say that it's empathy; understanding the feelings of others.</li>
<li><strong>2- Review yourself</strong><br />Second is to review and question yourself. Has your skill led to 1) Achievement, 2) Happiness and 3) a desire to use the skill again. Many times I have told people that they need to search for their own strengths. Someone may say, "My strength is cooking.". Cooking is not a strength though. You need to focus on skills, not what you like to do.</li>
<li><strong>3- Take a Strengths Finder Test </strong><br />Third is to take a strengths-finder test. You'll discover your core strengths.</li>
</ul>
<h3>What Skills Do You Bring to the Team?</h3>
<p>Fourth is to realize how your strengths contribute to teamwork. When you know what your strengths are, let's say to immediately execute the tasks, you have a very efficient work ethic. This is what we call Activator.</p>
<p>Once you know that you are that kind of person, you will need to look into your team and see how your attributes can contribute. When there's an additional or urgent project you will be able to persuade the team why you need to do this right now. Those who have the skills to do work quickly will also drive others to start working promptly. It's like being a motivator for others.</p>
<p>Hence, understanding yourself is one thing. But to understand how your skills can add on to the team is how you become well loved by the team.</p>
<h3>Help Others When You Can</h3>
<p>Fifth is about help. Helping others when we can. Because when working as a team, everyone has their own duties.</p>
<p>Let's say you are so overwhelmed with work when suddenly your colleague comes up and asks if you need help. How do you feel? Grateful, thankful and happy right? Even though they may not be able to help much, it's the thought that counts, isn't it?</p>
<p>You can also be that person. Whenever you are done with your work, try walking up to your colleagues and see how your strengths can be of benefit to them. Once you have offered them help, they'll feel thankful and love you more.</p>
<h2>Teamwork is Important for Success</h2>
<p>I think, no matter what, teamwork will not disappear from this world. Even though the situations may require us to be separated, humans are naturally born with the "social brain". We think together, we improve on things together.</p>
<p>According to studies, to solve a problem, working as a team will get a better solution than doing it alone. I feel that humans will always need each other.</p>

Working as a Team Player Script

<p>COVID-19 has completely changed the world. The question is how we can adapt to create work that is impactful, to take care of ourselves, our colleagues, our jobs and how to work happily.</p>
<p>Hello, I'm Rut. Anontawong Marukpitak,<br />Head of People at LINE MAN Wongnai.</p>
<p>The world of work is divided into 2 worlds; the old and the new worlds of work. The old world is traditional, working in the office from 9-6, growing and developing your career. The new world, on the other hand, is technology-led. It&rsquo;s the world of e-commerce that grows and changes exponentially.</p>
<p>The two worlds are different. The old world is comfy with good work life balance. You can continue and you can go on but with little payoff, not very high income. But in the new world, It is tough and unforgiving. The workload is very high, but the payoff in terms of learning and earning are potentially far higher.</p>
<h2>Recruit, Support, Develop</h2>
<p>Human Resources (HR) has 3 jobs. The first is to recruit people, the second to support people, and the third is to develop people.</p>
<p>I have been in HR now for 5 years and have seen a lot of changes. Definitely, COVID is one of the factors. Businesses are moving faster and more aggressively.</p>
<p>The type of people that an organization needs also changes with time. In the past, we needed people with passion and creativity, who enjoy working.</p>
<p>When work is people-related, like LINE MAN (we work with restaurants, customers ordering food, and delivery riders), we manage a lot of people. We need strong minded people. We no longer need those who just work well but people who are patient and strong-minded. They need to be able to work as a team and to solve problems quickly and effectively.</p>
<h2>The Types of People Every Organization Needs</h2>
<p>What are the qualities of a good employee that organizations look for?</p>
<h3>1. Open-minded and Eager to Learn</h3>
<p>One. Open-minded and inquisitive people whose glasses are always half full. We're in a world where things change all the time. What you knew may not be true. What you thought was right yesterday, may well be wrong today.</p>
<p>You have to be ready to improve, to change and not cling to the old beliefs. This is about the need to unlearn, learn and relearn.</p>
<h3>2. Patience and Dedication</h3>
<p>Two. Patient people who never give up. This is an era in which change happens suddenly and it's very unforgiving. You need to be unyielding, ready to face anything and never give up.</p>
<h3>3. See The Big Picture</h3>
<p>Three. I think it is about being bountiful. When we have a narrow perspective we only see the view from where we stand.</p>
<p>If we're bountiful, we see the big picture, we can see the company direction, what our bosses are doing, what our executives are doing. We then will not be constrained by our job description, but free to do whatever moves the company forward. Free to conquer all problems.</p>
<p>These are 3 things that will help you grow in an organization that suits you.</p>
<h2>5 Tips to Kick Start Your Career</h2>
<p>On CI Talks today, I want to share my thoughts on things I think will be useful for new graduates and first jobbers. Know what to focus on in the first 5 years so you can grow in the organization and have a chance to advance your career. I have 5 takeaways to share with you.</p>
<h3>Raise Your Hand</h3>
<p>One. Hand Raising.</p>
<p>2 years living with the COVID pandemic has resulted in lots of changes. It invented new work, work that no-one was assigned to do. This is a gray area, where new work requirements aren't specifically assigned. The question is who should take that work?</p>
<p>If we view it as not being extra work, or work that distracts our regular work flow, we can raise our hand and say "I'll do it". This is how we make ourselves outstanding at work.</p>
<p>You will be more tired but taking on work no one wants to do will make others view you as a valuable asset. It differentiates you from the rest. This quickly becomes a distinctive point and your unique selling point.</p>
<h3>Be Measurable</h3>
<p>The second is to be Measurable.</p>
<p>We are entering a data driven era that is results oriented. How do we know things we do matter? We need to be measurable, to know that what we do is making a difference; that the video we created is being watched, or the blog we write is being read.</p>
<p>The work we do needs to be measurable so that we know our limited time and effort has been well spent. When these things are measured and the results presented to colleagues and the executive board, your opportunity to grow in the organization will increase.</p>
<h3>Build Your Identity</h3>
<p>The third takeaway is Identity.</p>
<p>I'll divide this into 2 parts, the workplace and the online world. Re Identity in the workplace, I see potential candidates on LinkedIn and the ones with most potential, the top performers, don't regularly update their LinkedIn profiles because their track record is attractive to companies. They don&rsquo;t have to search for jobs as companies, recruiters and head-hunters will search for them.</p>
<p>The second is identity in the online world. I&rsquo;m a believer in promoting your name as your brand, as opposed to any organization. We have many social media channels; Youtube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok. If you're just a user browsing feeds, you are not using these platforms to their full potential.</p>
<p>When you become a creator and generate your own content that is published on those platforms, you build your identity, followers. This is clear and tangible work that can create fame, notoriety and opportunity.</p>
<p>So build your identity in the workplace and the online world to open new doors to good things.</p>
<h3>Be Healthy: Mind, Body and Soul</h3>
<p>The fourth is Healthy Mind, Body and Soul.</p>
<p>Over the past 2 years, more people have become burnt out, more people have suffered from depression. I think working from home is one reason; hours spent alone, sitting in front of a laptop. Another reason is that the boundary between personal life and work has dissolved by working from home.</p>
<p>With capitalism, organizations grow fast and if we don't protect this boundary, the pressure of the work and the pressure of the organization will keep us running all the time. When we run without rest eventually, as the body has limits, it will break down. We need to take care of ourselves both physically and mentally.</p>
<p>For physical health, it's easy; eat healthy, get enough sleep, and workout. Mental health is just as important. If we keep working, working, just working to fulfill our ambitions, In the end, you may not get there because you get burnt out.</p>
<p>At LINE MAN Wongnai, our policy is to be good to our staff, to give them a chance to experience what they love like hosting Music Evenings for staff to sing and play instruments, or booking bands like POLYCAT to perform. Things like this.</p>
<h3>Be Patient!</h3>
<p>My fifth takeaway is to be patient and wait.</p>
<p>I often remind new graduates that they need to be patient, that they need to wait. New graduates want to grow fast, succeed fast. They are impatient. "I've worked for 6 months and got nowhere" or "I know all this. I'll change jobs". But if you do this, you forfeit the chance to excel in your career and threaten your career success.</p>
<p>There's a term "Career Capital"; the accrued skills and knowledge you have. You build it by staying at a job and building knowledge to do that job until you begin to create impact and grow with the organization. When I am recruiting, I look for people who have been promoted in a company they have worked at for 2-3 years and have grown in that company. I'll hire them.</p>
<p>Another profile is the "job hopper". They change jobs frequently. I don't hire these people. The perception I have is that one, they aren't patient enough, or two, they are just not good, because all good things take time. Only bad things happen quickly. Everything else takes time. So if you are patient and never give up, you will reach your future goals.</p>
<h2>Step Forward in the World of Work</h2>
<p>The Future of Work.</p>
<p>What will the future of work be like? The answer is no one knows. We can&rsquo;t guess how it will change but we can predict what won&rsquo;t change.</p>
<p>Choose a good organization and know what organization you want to work for. Try to blend in and to understand the big picture of the organization and focus on that. Find opportunities to grow in the organization. Your future will then be bright and you will be in a position to earn enough to take care of yourself and your family too.</p>

Script - Kick Start Your Career Success | CI Talks

Kick Start Your Career Success Script

<p>I just can't see what business can continue operating in the future without creativity. You all have creativity. You have the potential and ability to pursue creativity. If someone tells you that you don't have it, do not believe them.</p>
<h2>Why a Creative Economy is important</h2>
<p><span style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold;">Hello, I am Duangrit Bunnag,</span><br />an Architect.</p>
<p>A contracting population means less demand. Less resources, or scarcity, in the world affects supply. Both will be less. The question is how the global economy can evolve to continue to feed our planet and our needs. This is about sustainable development in economy.</p>
<p>Let me give you an example. Let's say I have a glass that is sold today at 20-30 Baht. But I can use the same material to produce a design-led glass. I might be able to sell the glass at a higher price, at 100-120 Baht.</p>
<p>This is the market of the future. You will have to create products that transform limited materials or resources into higher value goods. Such products must be distributed in diversified markets where specific demands need to be met, but the number of buyers will be lower. The only way we can improve or develop our economic thinking from this point is through creativity.</p>
<p>You will see from today that a number of things will have high competitiveness given new thoughts or new ideas or if certain businesses have embraced creativity. In my view, as an Architect, I do not see how any business can move forward into the future without creativity.</p>
<p>The question is, are we ready? Are we prepared? Do we have the right mechanisms to develop people with high creative potential? Potential is the backbone of a creative economy. It's an economy that creates people who have the potential to create.</p>
<p>Creative Economy, as the phrase suggests, is about creativity's economic contribution. It's not simply about films, books, music, or design. Creativity occurs in all facets of a business. I call it, or anything originating from creativity, a Creative Economy.</p>
<p>Today, I have five insights for you to take home on creativity and creative economy.</p>
<h2>1. Focus on Creating Temporary Monopolies</h2>
<p>First is Temporary Monopoly. In the future, we won't see a permanent monopoly of goods and services. Everything will be temporary.</p>
<p>It's a Sine Wave. A Sine Wave goes up and down. When it reaches the top, that's where wealth is created. Companies, from this point forward, should focus on creating Temporary Monopolies repeatedly.</p>
<p>A company will need to build and rebuild itself. For example, Facebook has built a Temporary Monopoly called &ldquo;Meta&rdquo; (Metaverse).</p>
<p>So I can tell you that the one thing that takes you to the peak of wealth again and again is creativity. I will show you that there is a direct correlation between Temporary Monopolies, wealth and creativity.</p>
<h2>2. Make "Silent Knowledge" Your Business</h2>
<p>Second is silent knowledge. One area where we keep failing is viewing knowledge as articulated knowledge or knowledge that can be recorded, be it books, websites,or information posted online.</p>
<p>To give you an example, let's say I give a musician a note to play. That note is articulated knowledge. Being able to read music is articulated knowledge. It doesn't mean that the musician can play an instrument or song in the same way as a music master. But when the master passes on all techniques and tips for the musician to play a song captivatingly, that is silent knowledge.</p>
<p>This is why the Thai education system, or education system generally, is failing. Because we don't place any emphasis on silent knowledge. We prioritize articulated knowledge.</p>
<p>But these days, any knowledge that can be recorded has already been recorded, and copied. So kids can easily access articulated knowledge at any time beyond school. Schools that aim for articulated knowledge will not be engaging for children.</p>
<p>If we can pass on both types of knowledge, articulated and silent, the environment will be interesting. Schools will be interesting.</p>
<p>An environment that has the potential to pass on both silent knowledge and articulated knowledge is an environment that breeds creativity.</p>
<h2>3. Spark Creativity in the Right Context</h2>
<p>Third, &ldquo;creativity is what is possible within the context&rdquo;. It starts with this sentence. It's how to look for possibilities given the current context.</p>
<p>To do this, you have to look further for possibilities, not from yourself, but from the surrounding context.</p>
<p>Picture a diagram. When you make a dot, you don't see what the possibilities of that dot are until the number of dots increases to 2 or 3 dots, or more. When there are three dots, you may see a triangle. When there are 4 dots, that's when you may see a quadrilateral instead.</p>
<p>Potential arises when there is enough context. When there are more dots, the potential becomes clearer. At one point, you will be able to say that it's a circle.</p>
<p>With enough context, new possibilities emerge. You don't even have to consciously think about it. You will see that it can be a circle without effort. If you can see this and there is enough context, I can tell you that possibilities will automatically arise. That is the wonder of creativity.</p>
<h2>4. Change the Context to Ignite Creativity</h2>
<p>Fourth is altering the context. Sometimes when you are in certain contexts and can't find a path forward, I'd suggest you try changing the context.</p>
<p>Let's say you're looking into a room and you're trying to find an exit, I look left, right, in front, at the back, but I can&rsquo;t find a way out. What I have to do to find an exit is to alter the context.</p>
<p>Imagine if I flip the room from one side to the other; flip it on the vertical axis and then the horizontal axis. I will eventually find an exit hidden in a perspective that I have never seen before.</p>
<p>For example, if you are a creative writer and are sitting at home one day with writer&rsquo;s block, you may decide to change the scene and move to a different environment, like a cafe. This is a good example of altering the context.</p>
<p>So what I want you to try is to try altering the context whenever you can't see the solution. Try changing the context, changing the total perspective. This is the way to see new ways to innovate, by exploring different contexts.</p>
<h2>5. You are Already a Creative Person</h2>
<p>Fifth, I want you to remember that you are always already a creative person.</p>
<p>No matter what other people say, you have the potential to be creative.</p>
<p>If you don't believe me, close your eyes and drift back in time to when you were seven years old. You were brim full with creativity. Back then, everything was possible. You could do anything. You could become anything.</p>
<p>That is the wonder within yourself, the wonder of your life. So, you are already a creative person. You have always been creative. This is the thing that makes you realize that you can do anything with your hands.</p>
<p>In the future, there won't be anything that generates wealth without creativity.</p>
<p>I hope you will see that creativity lies within each and everyone of you. You have the ability to summon creativity whenever you need it.</p>

Working as a Team Player

In his video talk Anontawong Marukpitak, Head of People at LINE MAN Wongnai, talks about how to kick-start your career success. Get ready and be prepared for the future with tips from an HR expert on the qualities of a good employee and how to advance your career.

<p>A human resources manager has three facets to their job. They are responsible for recruiting the best possible people (employees) into the organization they represent. They are also responsible for supporting employees who work for the organization and developing individuals so that they can take action and grow and evolve to become the best version of themselves.</p>
<p>But Anontawong Marukpitak, Head of People at LINE MAN Wongnai and your coach in the How to Kick Start Your Career Success video talk, does not like or use &ldquo;Human Resources&rdquo; in his own job title. He feels that team members should not be viewed as &ldquo;Resources&rdquo; by organizations, but as people and individuals. Employees who are treated well and with respect by their employers will afford the same level of care to the company&rsquo;s clients and customers.</p>
<h2>Qualities of Good Employee</h2>
<p>In his video talk, which is part of the CI Talks &ldquo;Future of Work&rdquo; web series, Anontawong (Rut) shares three key characteristics or qualities of a good employee that an organization will look for when recruiting team members:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open Minded and Hungry to Learn</li>
<li>Patience and Dedication</li>
<li>Ability to See the Big Picture</li>
</ol>
<p>He points out that the profile of an ideal employee changes over time and that the qualities sought yesterday, or pre COVID, are different from the types of people every organization needs today. The pandemic has completely changed the world and the world of work with it.</p>
<p>Rut also gives you 5 takeaways to help new graduates and first jobbers achieve early career success by being noticed and valued in the organization they work for:</p>
<ol>

<p>The world of work has been divided in two; there is the old and there is the new. The new world of work is fast-paced, tough and unforgiving but the potential for learning and earning is much higher.</p>
<p>As we emerge from the pandemic, we find ourselves in the midst of the <a>cryptocurrency revolution</a> and this will continue to disrupt and significantly change how and where we work, as well as who completes that work.</p>
<p>Unfortunately no-one has a crystal ball to predict what the future of work will look like but, as Anontawong says, we can predict what is unlikely to change. Then it is down to you to choose an organization that inspires you and channel your energies into really understanding that organization's &ldquo;big picture&rdquo;. Master this and you will be free to take action and grow and to kick start your career success.</p>
