2018, a year to be thankful for ...

It’s already the nineteenth day of 2019, yet, it's never too late to say thank you.

Truly, 2018 has been a great year, seeing some of our friends reaching their potential, others finding their hidden skills and talents and putting them into good use and perform well!

One friend asked me: "What does actually Arc Australia Consulting stand for?"

I was rather stumbled at that question. I pondered it a while and traced back what I and Arc Australia Consulting have done since I created it in October 2012 so far.

Now, I can simply say, "People and knowledge. We enrich people's lives and enhance their values at work through knowledge."

Knowledge is the nourishment for the mind. My only hope is to see, they,  people whom I intellectually journey with, find purpose and meaning in their lives: whatever they do at work they find it worth doing, and whatever worth doing is worth doing well. 

Yes, that's our strength: People and knowledge. I nourish people's minds with good knowledge to enable them to do well and put the right use of their talents. And I inspire them to live a life to its fullness.

Echoing what the late Herb Kelleher, the founder of Southwest Airlines, says: "The Business of the business is people. Recognising them and honouring them as individuals ...". He believes in people -- he believes they are the key  to the enduring success of his company since its inception in the early 1970s. 

SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF 2018
I've journeyed with 20 young professionals from PT Kairos Utama Indonesia (Kairos) and PT Wira Arta Telematika (WAT) through an executive coaching program while continuing my support to the team at Rosela Hospital on their accreditation process journey.

My exciting moments? Spending four-days behind a closed door helping WAT's CEO and Finance Director formulating their business strategy and charting a map for WAT's business' growth.

KICKING OFF THE NEXT COACHING JOURNEY
Next week (21 January 2019), a core team at WAT will be continuing their coaching journey with me with one goal: helping them achieve their 2019 business plan. 

And here are some GREAT MOMENTS in 2018 -- one year in Arc Australia Consulting's life (in reverse chronological order)

 “Thank you. Thank you. Thank you all so much. You’ve made 2018 joyful and wonderful!"
