Last May, my good friend Rolly Soliven, invited and treated me to this wonderful leadership seminar in VCF The Fort. The event is part of the efforts of Pastor Joey Bonifacio, Victory Biz Group and Victory Christian Fellowship to reach out to different sectors of the community – this time the professional and business sector.
The father-and-son tandem of former GMA president and CEO Nardz Jimenez and PLDT senior vice president Butch Jimenez graced the occasion with powerful and meaningful leadership speeches.
Butch Jimenez went first on stage and spoke about three important elements to properly lead people.
Here are some notes I have taken during the meet. Read the rest of this entry »

Bits of wisdom about leadership
Let these bits of wisdom guide us all in choosing our next sets of leaders. These following words may be brief, but speaks highly of the essence of leadership that the Philippines need.
Let our decisions not be persuaded by just mere hearsay and publicity stunts. All the more we need to look at the character and vision of our leaders.
Thus, here are some words about leadership. Let their lessons be the bedrock for our WISE decision making.
Our nation’s leaders and managers for the next three and six years depend on the decision we make during the few minutes we will be in our respective precincts.
I hope and pray that most Filipino voters will be wise enough not to short sell the nation’s future for money, cheap talks, empty promises and publicity stunts.
A leader is a dealer in hope. -Napoleon Bonaparte-
“A wise leader doesn’t completely abandon the past but builds on it as he or she moves toward the future.” -From a Bible commentary, Be strong Joshua-

New year… new things — CHANGE
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”
-Margaret Mead-
True indeed. That during the course of history, the movers, shakers of the world evidently are a small portion of the society wanting change. The rest of the society either want to go with the flow, if not just be in a status quo.
Many ask for change. But only few move to change.
If there is anything I have learned, in my nearly 30 years of living, if I want something to change, change must start from me, then things around me changes.

What our leaders should learn from Ondoy (Part 2)
Point #2: PREPARING FOR BATTLE
After seeing what to expect, then, we can prepare.
This is the key to whatever we want to achieve in life. We prepare for the best things to come. And more is needed in preparation for the worst things to come.

What our leaders should learn from Ondoy… (Part 1)
Many of our leaders are pointing fingers and blaming each other on who is accountable for the lives and properties lost as Ondoy ravaged many parts of our country.
However, I believe there are three main things we need to look into, for us to prevent this tragedy to happen again. But first, let me present some facts.
Fact #1: Our country is not a “typhoon-free” country. Studies show that our country is expected to have more than 20 typhoons per year.
