Today I have a little bit of problem trying to convince Jane that

our department should sponsor my cab fare to our Hong Qiao clinic.

But I still managed to convince her… haha! =)

 

Well, I got my hands dirty together with the aunties and Rie and security

guard all helping to rearrange the basement to clear up the place for more

space and more importantly, to have a good impression for the up coming

inspections! hehe! Learnt quite a bit on the inspections requirements too!

 

Met Gabriel to discuss more on BizBuzz and the support that our school can

give. also had a free meal on him… or the school… haha! And also thanks

for the contacts! hehe!

Thanks Rie! Your words for the Business case really woke me up!!!! You are a gem!!! haha!

Chatted with Izzie and Joyce! I think the class will start next Monday! But! I think I will have to

skip the first lesson. And Also I need to shop for english books to start teaching Izzie! Language exchange!

Today I had a discussion with Rie on some issues that are close to my heart.
We also discussed on some clinic issues. Below are what we discussed. (Due
to the sensitivity of the issues, I will discuss them only in general.

1. People (Salary VS Expectations)
How to satisfy the unlimited wants of people? if we increase salary, it only serves
to satisfy them for a short period of time before it becomes a market rate and the
overall expected pay would increase, with no quantum leap of employee quality in
the long run… How do we strike the balance? That is the question…

 

2. Career Development
To increase overall quality of employees, one of the better ways is to paint a better
picture about the future. to let them know that there is a future, and every step they
take now helps to create their future in the company. In this way, they can see the
hard work as an investment.

Rather than seeing the company as a mere transition, a good career development for
the individuals really helps to change the mindsets of people, and hence the quality.

 

3. Morale
If points 1 and 2 are covered well, point 3 would be the resultant. Else, it would be another
force to be reckoned with… Although there are a number of ways to handle short term
morale boosting, these would be mere facades without a strong 1 and 2.

 

4. Basement
We also discussed on the possibilities on using the basement for some activities! haha! exciting!
to use that space for the staff! (^_^)

 

5. Medical Records
This is one problematic issues I think all healthcare organisation would face someday. I just hope
I can put what I learnt to good use! Forms and records would be a headache whether they are onine
or printed! haha!

Jocelyn’s Farewell!
Man!!! I will miss Jocelyn! haha! She and Bryan certainly added colour to my stint here! haha! We had
a farewell dinner at Shanghai Times Square, a korean restaurant. It’s a super fun dinner with friends
from all over the company!!! Especially Luwan and Admin! haha!

 

I sincerely wish her and her family all the best for their migration to Australia! Shall visit them in
Melbourne! Someday! haha! And I am looking forward to it! haha!

 

Haoledi!
This one is it!!! haha! Time to show off my dice skills! I realised I am able to shuffle the dices with the mouth
of the cup facing the floor without the dices falling off… Well, at least for most of the times! haha!

Also, we really enjoyed ourselves singing and drinking… I drank little… haha! Because I have improved from
my previous experience with the game of BLUFF! haha!
