How work? It’s The Secrets of Google #2

What’s the Next?

“And in an age when innovation is increasingly a group endeavor, it also cares about a lot of soft skills — leadership, humility, collaboration, adaptability and loving to learn and re-learn. This will be true no matter where you go to work.”

by Laszlo Bock, the senior vice president of people operations for Google (more info about Secrets of Google)

Secrets of Google : How google work?

Google quarterly announced to employees. Announce what? Information that the management reported to the Board of Directors. There are many secrets enough to be classified as confidential but they tell employees frankly. Then Larry Page, ceo of google, announced what’s at stake and assignment. That’s not all. Just over 10 departmental senior vice president described the impact of announcement to his staff. And then Vice President – Director – individual employees share opinions by narrowing its scope. 30,000 employees must go through this process without exception. It takes two~three weeks. It’s the Secrets of Google!

Through this procedure, Employees set own goals. My goal is to be the goal of the company and company’s goal is to be my task. And share every Friday at ‘TGIF’ event. What will happen at the end of the quarter? Go up-stream! Employees talk how much they achieved in 3 months. And share it with team leader – Director – Vice President – CEO. How amazing it is! It really could be called God’s job.

“G.P.A.’s are worthless as a criteria for hiring, and test scores are worthless. … We found that they don’t predict anything…

Google attracts so much talent it can afford to look beyond traditional metrics… Beware. Your degree is not a proxy for your ability to do any job” – Laszlo Bock

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

The fourth Industrial Revolution with Google : Can you survive? #1

What is the fourth Industrial Revolution?

Where are we?

1st Industrial Revolution 18C : The machines-revolution based on the steam engine
2nd Industrial Revolution 19C~ early 20C : The mass-production-revolution based on electrical energy
3rd Industrial Revolution late 20C : The knowledge-information-revolution based on computer and Internet
4th Industrial Revolution early 21C : What?

The Fourth Industrial Revolution was first mentioned on 2016 WEF: World Economic Forum. The most interesting features are ‘hyper-connectivity‘ and ‘super-intelligence‘. So it has a powerful influence. For example, there are AI, IoT, cloud computing, big data, 3D printing and nano technology. It’s cool! But if you don’t catch up with the times, it’s a recipe for disaster to you. For someone it may be a golden opportunity.

What kind of person would survive?

Do you know about Google’s requirements? Google leads the whole world. Sunil Chandra is a vice president in charge of Google’s recruitment. He suggested 4 things on May 17, 2016 in San Francisco. Problem-solving skills, a clear perception about his part, leadership and collaboration. In a word, “someone who actively solve the problem working with other people“. Lastly he emphasized ‘Googleyness‘ The flower of Google corporate culture is a ‘TGIF‘ event taking place every Thursday. Chandra have a sense that ‘I am a owner of Google‘ through ‘TGIF’ event. How does Google work? Find out in the next posting. 🙂

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

Dream motivation : Can’t get to that level

Dream Motivation : Who are you?

It’s hard changing your life. You may be in a lot of disappointment, a lot of failure, a lot of pain. How was your day today? Is it tough? Why is this happening to me? Please answer me! I can’t understand anything! Perhaps, there may be no growth and development for years. Do you know about yourself? It is never easy question to answer. If you can’t find the answer, Dream Motivation is no where.

Journey to seek a sense of identity

When you become the ‘right-person’, what you do is you start separating yourself from other people. You may take disgusted looks lying down. It’s necessary to get the losers out of your life. But it is not the end. Do you want a happy ending? You can say ‘I want a council, I want to be a engineer, I want to be a doctor.’

Listen to me : You can’t get to that level.

You can’t get to that level economically where you want to be, until you start invest in your mind. You are not reading books!!! To Invest in you! JUST TAKE THE FIRST STEP! Don’t let nobody steal your dream!

Reviewing it every day and saying to yourself :

IT’S NOT OVER, UNTIL I WIN! You can live your dream!

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

Keep going!!! : Wholehearted with Saadi

Have a patience

– vivaldi

We fell down more than 1000 times to take the first step
fell down more than 100 times to ride a bicycle, Keep doing
We invest huge time and money to drive a car, Keep going!

At that time, that was the most difficult thing in the World.
But what’s now?

Walking is a piece of cake
Ride a bicycle with one hand
Drive a car with talking

If your work is too hard, just keep doing until easy to handle

“Have patience. All things are difficult before they become easy.” – Saadi Shirazi

Keep! Keep going!!!

Are you suffering from a slump?
Is it still bothering you, bah?
Now moment of truth, Face the reality straightly!

Peace is up to you 🙂 Keep going!

“Magic Night” in ACC International fringe festival

ACC International fringe festival

On June 2-4, ‘International Street theater Festival‘ was held in Gwang-ju in Korea. It was hosted by ACC(Asia Culture Center). My friend send pictures and short clips to me. He said,”It’s so cool!!!!! Fantastic!!!” I am sick and tired of studying in Australia. Just in time when I feel homesick, I’m so happy to see it. It’s really cool. You can see it for yourself.

“Magic Night”

by Xarxa Theatre_Spain

Xarxa Theatre celebrates the night with fireworks and upbeat rhythms in a reenactment of an ancient festival in Valencia. Turn off the light, and let the real life begin!

This Concept worked very well. Piping and drumming tempts everyone sweetly. While the fireworks get faster, so do the townsfolk. People were swarming like bees. My friend said, “I have had such hard times, but I was so happy that I was able to forget them on that day.” I suddenly wondered ‘Why do we hold festival?’

Festival : Our Culture, Our Spirit

In a dictionary, the origin of ‘Festival‘ is ‘Festivalis‘ that means holy day in Latin language. It means that the root of festival is a religious ritual. It contributed to group cohesiveness, but also it handed down culture and tradition. So they can feel they are alive in this community. “We are one!” Culture and festival obviously have a powerful force to change people. Our own culture with our own hands! I think Heavenly Culture makes the world happier.

[Two Poems in the Morning] Rise from the Ashes of Despair

What though life conspire to cheat you

A.S. Pushkin

What though life conspire to cheat you,
Do not sorrow or complain.
Lie still on the day of pain,

And the day of joy will greet you.
Hearts live in the coming day.
There’s an end to passing sorrow.

Suddenly all flies away,
And delight returns tomorrow.

Let It Be Forgotten

By Sara Teasdale

Let it be forgotten, as a flower is forgotten,

Forgotten as a fire that once was singing gold,

Let it be forgotten for ever and ever,

Time is a kind friend, he will make us old.

If anyone asks, say it was forgotten

Long and long ago,

As a flower, as a fire, as a hushed footfall

In a long forgotten snow.

Life

Charlotte Brontë, 1816 – 1855

Life, believe, is not a dream
So dark as sages say;
Oft a little morning rain
Foretells a pleasant day.
Sometimes there are clouds of gloom,
But these are transient all;
If the shower will make the roses bloom,
O why lament its fall?
Rapidly, merrily,
Life’s sunny hours flit by,
Gratefully, cheerily
Enjoy them as they fly!

What though Death at times steps in,
And calls our Best away?
What though sorrow seems to win,
O’er hope, a heavy sway?
Yet Hope again elastic springs,
Unconquered, though she fell;
Still buoyant are her golden wings,
Still strong to bear us well.
Manfully, fearlessly,
The day of trial bear,
For gloriously, victoriously,
Can courage quell despair!

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

Internal branding : Your Identity? through Louis Quatorze

Internal branding : Your Identity

In last posting, Identity of company is the most important thing to succeed. Always I think it is hard to me. What is my identity? I don’t know who I am. Who are you? Often adults are said to blame teenagers for their wandering. “Work at the time! You are wandering because of your weak will!” Let’s dig into adults. Do adults know about themselves? In fact, Nope. The difference is that they cover themselves for a long time. So they are more angry. It is called a projection in psychological terms. Teenagers cannot help wandering to look for identity.

What about company?

Company is the same thing for human. Like babies, we should raise the company well. we should build brand image one by one. When branding was reached some level, Its name reminds us of something. Apple is like a Apple and google is like a google. So far we’ve seen marketing in consumer’s view. It is a ‘External branding’. This time, what is important for CEO? If employees are not changed, It is no use advertising splendidly. You know that. People don’t change easily. So consumers feel the same thing as before. What good is it spending a great deal of money on advertising? It is a ‘Internal branding’. It is that each one of employees has the spirit of the company. Each one of employees is to be the company. It is called by ownership.

For example Louis Quatorze : LQ

In Korea, MCM is a leader of hand bag market. Louis Quatorze followed MCM. LQ want to overtake. So, LQ make a slogan, “Intellectual elegance”. They educated all employees. They asked, “What is intellectual elegance?” Most companies are doing here. But LQ is different. They started a learning program for a year in earnest. Two-month interval for 6 times. The first is that you can see performance, play and movie, etc for free. You are needed to find who has ‘Intellectual elegance’ and write about why you think so. Second they are needed to read 2 books. They find and write pleasantly. One year later, they eat intellectually and they walk elegantly. It is same as Ritz–Carlton Hotel Company. “We are ladies and gentlemen serving ladies and gentlemen” This slogan makes employees more gentle. It is ‘Internal branding’.

I need to build my identity.

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

Marketing Secrets : You want? Woowa Bros!

The People of Delivery

Do you know ‘The People of Delivery‘? Oh God, what does it mean? Is Delivery like a bullet? It’s a Food delivery business, called ‘Food-tech‘ in Korea. Woowa Brothers is running! Its name means ‘Elegant’ and ‘Wow’. They are the most influential in Food delivery businesses. How can? Their start is very small in 2010. It’s all that few people developed a delivery smartphone application. How could they grow like now? The company had 25.7 million dollars in 2016. It’s unbelievable! If you see a promotion video, you may be able to know the ‘Marketing Secrets‘.

Marketing Secrets

You know that, right? It is simple and funny. Woowa Bros‘s advertising is so funny that people share their happiness through social network services (SNS). Word of Mouth is spreading out in a big way. So, they got gigantic advertising impact without spending a lot of money. So the second can’t keep up with Woowa Bros. 김봉진 CEO said, “The first class talks ‘Culture’, the second talks ‘ function”. He said, “Company’s mission, Identity is the most important” 배달의민족(Baedalminjok = mean The People of Delivery) targets the youngest members. They order food in a meeting, not others.

Kitsch & B-Culture

Too many, but I give you a one example. It is really fun. They astonish Korea! It is ‘Kyung Hee project’ Kyung Hee is just a name. They made advertising foster like right.

How do people react? All Kyung Hee in korea were tagged in Facebook. They parody this foster with their name. So, Woowa Bros put up a poster on 100 buses with different names. How do people react? They pictured each other and tagged their bus on that their name was written. They are pretty much occupied with smile. Woowa Bros was flooded with inquiries. “Please, put my name!” So, they started ‘1000 Kyung Hee project’. They send poster with their name to each of them! People really like it. More info?

Is it funny? It’s a marketing secret

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

[Miracle Morning for 10 days] I Never Give Up!

Despite being dead for 6 minutes, he never give up. Also he is in a coma for 6 days with breaking 11 bones and being told he may never walk again. He never give up! But a year later, a surprising thing happened! Hal Elrod has appeared on dozens of TV and radio shows and numerous books. What’s happening?

A friend said,
“Hal! Why don’t you run in the morning? It’s cool“

He targets miracle morning!

He is to be a Hall of Fame business achiever, ultra-marathon runner! Only just in one year. It’s unbelievable, aren’t you? His story is touching many people. He motivated them who hunger for change. Hal come up with an answer. Some people doubt and some people practise. A lot of people started to post their acts in Youtube. Community is formed soon and they said, “Every day is like Christmas!”

How exciting it is! Everyday is Christmas!

So I started 10 days ago

Hmm… I succeed only 2 days. HAHAHA. But I never give up! Though I sticked to one promise. Every day I am running 1 km. It is still kept under lock and key. So far, I am too hard. But praise me in that I started to try! Just look forward to me.

Peace is up to you 🙂 Good luck!

Successful Job Interview tips : Mission vs Vision vs Core Values

Your job interview : It’s cool

Are you trying to get jobs? How about your job interview? It‘s cool, right? If everything is going well, there is no reason to worry about. Do you want to make a strong impression on job interview? Let’s think in a interviewer’s position. Here we go! You joined the company already. Your five-year-anniversary date is coming. It would be like a dream come true, aren’t you? You get a chance to be an interviewer. So now, What kind of people do you hire? You want someone whom your company need. If a interviewee want to be hired, he should know much about the company.

I‘d like to formalize your employment with us. Wow!

Who knows well about the company? Someone who has joined for 5 years? A man suffering from all departments? Nope. Of course, it can not be ignored. But you can’t know better than the founder and you can’t know better than Operations. Try to listen saying of these people carefully. And make your competence felt. Interviewers said, “He’s someone whom our company absolutely needs.” Wow. The best scenario. But that’s easier said than done. How can we meet them who are the busiest in that company?

In fact, you can meet them. It’s easy and simple.

How can we meet busy men and women?

You can meet them in the company’s homepage. They are in ‘Mission, Vision and Core Values’. Why? Because it is the way they operate. You don’t know yet? Let us take a concrete example.

Apple “Think Different”

Mission(1980 Steve jobs) : “To make a contribution to the world by making tools for the mind that advance humankind.”

Vision(Tim Cook) :

“We believe that we’re on the face of the Earth to make great products.
We believe in the simple, not the complex.
We believe that we need to own and control the primary technologies behind the products we make.
We participate only in markets where we can make a significant contribution.
We believe in saying no to thousands of projects so that we can really focus on the few that are truly important and meaningful to us.
We believe in deep collaboration and cross-pollination of our groups, which allow us to innovate in a way that others cannot.
We don’t settle for anything less than excellence in every group in the company, and we have the self-honesty to admit when we’re wrong and the courage to change.”

Core values : “Great, Dimple, Easy-to-use”

The Walt Disney

Mission & Vision : “The mission of The Walt Disney Company is to be one of the world’s leading producers and providers of entertainment and information. Using our portfolio of brands to differentiate our content, services and consumer products, we seek to develop the most creative, innovative and profitable entertainment experiences and related products in the world.

Core values : “Innovation, Quality, Community, Storytelling, Optimism and Decency”

A company that has no identity is unattractive

Mission vs Vision vs Core values

Do you get an idea of how they operate their company? Mission is a reason for being of company.(raison d’etre) There are many other companies but why do this company exist? Is it threatening? HAHA. In previous post, I linked company’s mission and personal mission. Do you want more? Go to this link.

What is Vision? It is a concrete blueprint. When Disneyland was completed, Walt Disney was died already but it is same as his blueprint(his imagination). In other words, vision is a specific goal. Lastly, what is Core values? It is criteria for decision-making. There are lots of moments to decide from big things like company’s future, to trivial things like telephone contact with customers. Every employee follow company’s Core values. Explanation is over. Now, company’s success depends on how much company impressed their employees Mission, Vision and Core values. Why? A company that has no identity is unattractive.

Likewise, if interviewee don’t know these things, he must look like a fool. In fact, just because you know(hear) it, doesn’t mean you understand it. Because you should know more than meets the eye. If you feel it deep down in the heart, you are guaranteed to succeed.
