Learning to Leading: Leadership, management, and personal growth aren’t about memorizing frameworks — they’re about experiencing, experimenting, and reflecting. Every day is a laboratory, every interaction a lesson. Here’s what I’ve learned along the way.

1. Capture Ideas Fast -Learning to Leading

• Start by writing freely on an A4 page — jot down your concerns, issues, new ideas, or observations.
• Accelerate your actions — do everything quickly, consistently, and deliberately.
• And above all, never yell or get angry at people; patience is a multiplier for effectiveness.

A simple exercise: spend one minute reflecting on your day — what did you learn, what are your strengths, what kind of leader do you want to become, and what can you do differently to learn more?

2. Management Is a Skill, Not a Concept

Management isn’t a set of techniques; it’s a skill honed through experience:

• Arrive at answers through deliberation, debate, and discussion.
• Remember: everyone is needed, but no one is necessary.
• Communication matters:
  • Tell people what you’re going to tell them
  • Tell them clearly
  • Summarize what you’ve told them

Keep in mind: an audience can absorb one main proposal and three supporting arguments.

3. Speaking, Preparation, and Luck

The goal of practicing speech is improvement, not perfection. Even a 10% improvement in delivery can double your effectiveness.

Great teams excel at preparation, giving every moment 100%.

Luck = Preparation + Recognition

In interviews and meetings, remember the three must-says:

1. Treat every question as an opportunity to communicate what you want.
2. Be ready to tell your story: “Tell me about yourself.”
3. Customize your message — it should differ every time.

4. Passion Is a By-Product of Excellence

Top performers don’t wait to “find their passion.” They embrace uncertainty, endure the grind, and get extraordinarily good at what they do.

To discover your passion:

1. Open opportunities by mastering your craft.
2. Understand that passion often follows mastery, not the other way around.
3. Use micro-explorations — small, deliberate experiments — instead of chasing grandiose pursuits.

Passion emerges when excellence meets curiosity.

5. Plant Layout and Materials Handling

Even in operational tasks, strategic thinking matters:

• Use Automated Layout Design Programs (ALDEP, AEIOUX Framework)
• Computerized relationship layout planning (CORELAP)
• Rank Order Clustering (ROC) and Bond Energy Algorithms

Understand layout types:

• Product layout (continuous manufacturing)
• Process layout (intermittent manufacturing)

Proximity scales matter:

• Absolutely necessary A = 64
• Especially important E = 16
• Important I = 4
• Ordinary closeness O = 1
• Unimportant U = 0
• Not desirable X = -64

6. Know Your Work Style

Job-related skills can be categorized as:

1. Working with people
2. Working with data and information
3. Working with things
4. Working with ideas

Character develops not in tranquility, but through trial, error, and resilience. Every mistake is a step toward competence.

Final Thoughts

Whether it’s leadership, passion, or productivity, growth comes from action, reflection, and iteration:

• Capture your thoughts quickly
• Learn by doing and reflecting
• Prepare thoroughly and communicate clearly
• Master your craft, and passion will follow
• Embrace trial and error as a path to character and skill

Management and leadership aren’t about perfection — they’re about consistent practice, deliberate action, and continuous learning.
