I've attended several softskill training, and the last one was yesterday (2 days course) and I bet it's the most fun class I've been so far :) The trainer is an ex-marine and he called himself Captain Ariva, he might look serious but he is actually a great stand up comedian, we even asked him to go for next raja lawak audition :D Ok, back to training, basically this course helps us to think on how should we think. Thinking skills, what are importants when making decision. and the power of "CAN" word.
So the first day we had several team activities such as picture below. We were seperated into 6 groups and were asked to create and patent (hehe..) impossible stuff such as helicopter seat ejector, silent alarm clock, underwater hair dryer and waterproof teabag. Yes it sounds crazy ,all of us cameout with all kind of ideas and below is what our group came up with, maybe we could send this to helicopters company for prototype design. haha..
Team activity : Helicopter seat ejector
We named it ACE HELIJECTOR. Cool heh? :) Anyone interested to try it?
These are some points thatI remembered from the class (captain, if ur reading this I'm sorry i wasn't paying 100% attention so I missed out some important things u might've said..hehe)
1) If you want to be Successful. Fail Faster -> it means the faster u made decision n moved on, the sooner u will fail and b able to correct ur mistake soon as well.
2) OPV - Other people's view is important as the way other people are seeing things are different from what u see.
3) Leverage - Use all the things around u to come out with good solutions. Even people.
4) F.E.A.R - it means false evidence appearing real
5) Psychology of asking -
- what (what else.... , what do you mean by ____? )
- how
- why
6) Best practice sharing is great , in other word it is called 'copy' :)
