• Doing the right thing even when no one is watching
• Wisdom is knowing the right path to take; Integrity is taking it

promises you cannot keep

Being Adaptable
• Change is a constant, let’s embrace it. Be Flexible.
• Adaptable people don’t whine, don’t blame.
• We live in a fast paced, cutting-edge technology world, with
shifting markets, social media, globalization – let’s adapt all
the time.
• To be adaptable, accept multiple perspectives.
• To be adaptable, experiment & learn.
• Adaptable employees are considered flexible and entrusted
with more important tasks.
• Deliberately embracing the unknown and the unusual will
nurture your imagination and cultivate a culture of innovation.
Company Confidential
Being Strong
• Boldness doesn’t mean rude, obnoxious, loud or disrespectful. Being
bold is being firm, sure, confident, fearless, daring, strong, resilient,
and not easily intimidated. It means you’re willing to go where you’ve
never been, willing to try what you’ve never tried, and willing to trust
what you’ve never trusted. Boldness is quiet, not noisy.
• Don’t fear to ask questions, to anyone
• “When you’re fearless, you take more risks because you’re less
conscious of failure or what can go wrong” – Brett Ratner
• “Don’t be afraid of the answers. Be afraid of not asking the question”
• “Judge a man by his questions, rather than his answer” – Voltaire
Company Confidential
Being Innovative
• Without innovation, we will not advance, be curious – ask questions
• The future belongs to the curious. The ones who are not afraid to try
it, explore it, poke at it, question it, and turn it inside out
• Regular brainstorming is as critical to an organization as regular
exercise is to your health. It creates a responsive, innovative culture
• Ideas don’t need to be big always
• “If I had asked my customers, what they want, they would have said,
a faster horse” –Henry Ford
• The most important things in life aren’t things, but ideas
• Stop trying to focus on the large scale, mind-blowing innovations all
the time. Most ideas that have an impact, start as a “small idea”
• You can’t use up creativity; the more you use, the more you have
• The best way to have a Good idea, is to have lots of ideas
Company Confidential
Being Passionate
• A strong feeling of enthusiasm or excitement for something or about doing something
• It’s a beautiful thing when career and passion come together
• The most successful people follow passion, not paychecks
• Do it with passion or not at all
• You will do it because YOU want to do it, because you love doing it. Not because you are told to do it. Passion can be developed – don’t
wait for it to magically appear one fine day.
• Passion gives us purpose
• “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life”, Confucious
• “Passionate workers are committed to continually achieving higher levels of performance. In today’s rapidly changing business
environment, companies need passionate workers because such workers can drive extreme and sustained performance improvement—
more than the one-time performance “bump” that follows a bonus or the implementation of a worker engagement initiative. These workers
have both personal resilience and an orientation toward learning and improvement that helps organizations develop the resilience needed
to withstand and grow stronger from continuous market challenges and disruptions.” Deloitte
• “People with passion can change the world”, Steve jobs
• “The only way to do great work is to love what you do”, Steve Jobs
