🚴‍♂️ #TakingResponsibility: Lessons from the Trail and Professional Life 🌟 The Fun Part About Biking and Work - Part 4 Thank you all for your ongoing support and engagement! Your comments and stories are incredibly inspiring. 🙏 During a recent energetic break, I decided to switch things up and go for a #trailrun 🏃‍➡️. At the start of the trail, I came across this sign (see attached image): “Each hiker is the only responsible for crossing the gorge safely.” This message resonated deeply with me and reminded me of the importance of personal responsibility in both outdoor adventures and our professional lives. Here’s what I took away: Just like each hiker is responsible for their safety while crossing a gorge, each of us is responsible for our actions and tasks in our work and projects. Here are some #keytakeaways on embracing personal responsibility: 1. #OwnYourTasks 🔧: Take full ownership of your responsibilities. Whether you’re leading a project or contributing as a team member, ensure you understand your role and deliver to the best of your ability. 2. #StayAlertAndInformed 📚: Just as you would stay vigilant on a challenging trail, stay informed and aware in your professional life. This means keeping up with industry trends, continuously learning, and being proactive about potential challenges. 3. #MakeInformedDecisions 🧠: When trail running, you have to make quick, informed decisions to navigate safely. Similarly, in your projects, gather all necessary information before making decisions to ensure they are sound and well-considered. 4. #SeekAndOfferSupport 🤝: While personal responsibility is crucial, so is knowing when to seek help. Just like fellow hikers offer support, don’t hesitate to ask for assistance from your colleagues or offer help when someone needs it. 5. #ReflectAndLearn 📝: After completing a challenging trail, reflect on the experience and learn from it. Apply the same principle in your work—reflect on your successes and failures to continuously improve. As managers, project managers, and business experts, understanding and embracing personal responsibility can significantly enhance our performance and leadership. It fosters a culture of accountability and drives overall success. How do you practice personal responsibility in your projects? Share your experiences and tips below! Let’s continue to inspire each other on this journey. 🚴‍♂️ #Responsibility #TrailRunning #CareerJourney #ProjectManagement #Leadership #SelfImprovement #WorkLifeBalance #Success #Inspiration Stay tuned for more insights from our biking, running, and business adventures!

♻️ Ready for a second life on site?   Sustainability is a key focus at DEVO-Tech AG. We prioritize giving our handling devices a second life through reengineering, offering significant cost savings and environmental benefits:   ➔ Up to 70% cost savings for customers ➔ Extended lifespan of handling devices ➔ Reduced environmental impact   Our DVL vacuum lifting devices, DTT turning tables, and DML clamps are ideal candidates for reengineering.   Key considerations include consistent segment dimensions, load capacity adjustments, and the condition of the device.   Our success with the Brenner Base Tunnel Lot H53 project highlights this approach. We provided 42% of the equipment as reengineered, handling loads between 16.5 to 33 tons.   Sustainability through reengineering is crucial to us, and we’re proud to partner with clients who share this vision. Together, we create lasting, eco-friendly solutions.   Gain an insight into the topic in our blog post (link in 1st comment).   #sustainability #reengineering #devotech #precast #vacuumtechnology

Our world and our economy are they still VUCA? Or already BANI? At ASMPT, we have faced the VUCA world of V:olatile, U:ncertain, C:omplex and A:mbiguous with a stringent strategy that we continuously review, with consistent change management and with our global POWER Values: Passion, Ownership, Win, Excellence, Respect. In this way, we have not only maintained technology and innovation leadership in our industry but expanded it. In the VUCA world, which is characterized by extremely rapid technological developments, ever increasing customer and consumer demands and cultural and social changes, our POWER Values are particularly valuable guidelines in our day-to-day work. In a very interesting article, the author Stephan Grabmeier states that VUCA is no longer sufficient to describe our world, which is now BANI B:rittle, A:nxious, N:on-linear and I:ncomprehensible and he very nicely describes: 🔸 What used to be volatile has ceased to be reliable and becomes brittle. 🔸 People do not feel uncertain anymore, they are anxious. 🔸 Things are not complex anymore, they obey non-linear logical systems. 🔸 What used to be ambiguous appears incomprehensible to us today. So, what can we do? As Grabmeier summarizes quite aptly in my opinion: 🔹 If something is brittle, it requires capacity and resilience. 🔹 If we feel anxious, we need empathy and mindfulness. 🔹 If something is non-linear, it calls for context and adaptivity. 🔹 If something is incomprehensible, it demands transparency and intuition. We will continue to adhere to our ASMPT strategy, review it continuously and implement it consistently. We will never lose sight of the people side of change with our change management process and the corresponding training. In our Go FAR+ transformation program, we have defined projects and measures that will make us Future Ready, Agile and Resilient. All employees are ASMPT Ambassadors, a prerequisite for this is our open communication and information culture. 💠 We have the POWER. 💠 We are ONE ASMPT. #VUCA #BANI #Change #Changemanagement #Leadership ASMPT Ltd, ASMPT SEMI Solutions, ASMPT SMT Solutions

The purpose of using OKRs is to help with focus and clear definitions of the challenges we want to address. A double-digit number of goals is as far from focus as you can imagine. It usually means you can’t decide, and that’s not a good strategy to pursue. https://lnkd.in/dFH4_Bg9

My new favourite animal is a Chameleon. During our change program „Next Level Sales & Services“ it struck me, that each organization needs some „Chameleon skills“ in order to survive: - Be smart and adapt to whatever environment - Be patient, but quick when required - Be on the hunt, never saturated - Get invisible for your enemies - Stay focused and efficient I guess this is what helped this species to stay alive >100 Million years and I can see we all need a bit of that to be prepared for harder competition and more dynamic business cycles going up and down. For example: why should we always sell each new product with our own team? Do we have the competence and ressource to do it? Can‘t we instead try to cooperate with a specialized Sales Partner, to the benefit of our customers? In some regions, this is a big „Chameleon-Question“ for us, which we answer together with our local management teams. This way, we also learned that our program itself has to be adaptive. Each market needs a different answer, only when providing degrees of freedom and patience, there is a chance for real change step by step because only rarely a headquarter blueprint fits to 100% globally. So, don’t we all need a bit „Chameleon skill“? See and talk to you soon! 😎

As someone from the Design and Development department of an fairly large scale OEM, I've often found myself in situations where effective interdepartmental man management is crucial, yet challenging, especially without direct authority or power. Here are some insights and strategies I've learned along the way: 1. Building Relationships: Establishing strong relationships with colleagues across departments lays the foundation for effective collaboration. Take the time to understand their perspectives, challenges, and priorities. 2. Communication Skills: Effective communication is key to bridging gaps between departments. Clearly articulate ideas, listen actively, and tailor your message to resonate with your audience. Whether conveying technical insights or discussing project timelines, clarity and empathy are essential. 3. Leading by Example: Actions speak louder than words. Demonstrate professionalism, integrity, and a collaborative spirit in your interactions with colleagues. Be proactive in offering support and assistance where needed, regardless of departmental and hierarchical boundaries. I mean if someone in 40 degree temperature is dismantling a highly torqued bolt, there is no shame in offering a helping hand keeping the hierarchical delusion aside. 4. Influencing Through Expertise: Technical expertise always carries weight. Use it to your advantage by offering valuable insights and solutions that benefit not only your department but the organisation as a whole. Position yourself as a trusted resource and thought leader despite of your individual KPI goals. 5. Empathy and Emotional Intelligence: Understand that each department has its own set of challenges and objectives. Empathize with your colleagues' concerns and motivations. Emotional intelligence plays a crucial role in navigating interpersonal dynamics and building consensus. 6. Seeking Win-Win Solutions: Instead of approaching conflicts with a win-lose mentality, strive for win-win solutions that satisfy the needs of all parties involved. Take the pride in making every involved face happy at the end of the job. This not only make interdepartmental coordination smoother but also builds the foundation of a solid long term symbiotic relationship. 7. Continuous Learning and Adaptability: The business landscape is constantly evolving, and so are the dynamics within the organization. Stay abreast of industry trends and best practices in man management. Adaptability is key to staying ahead of the curve. As the norm says “Stay Hungry Stay foolish will make you do wonders”. In conclusion, interdepartmental man management infact gives you the opportunity to influence and inspire others, regardless of our formal authority. So far this is my learning and understanding of this very interesting yet complex opportunity. Do let me know your perspective on it so that it will help me to broader my views and understanding.
