Introvert Business Team Leader | Compassionate CEO in Heavy Equipment Industry | Driving Growth with Empathy

I'm glad you're here. Let's share our experiences in the construction/mining equipment industries transparently and kindly. Due to my positive and open-minded nature, I hope to connect with others and create more joy in our fields.

Apart from that, I'm all fired up about cultivating mindsets, talking about my introverted nature, cherishing family time, personal development, and championing mental health. 

From a person who had trouble loving oneself for more than 40 years, I found peace in loving myself and sharing my genuine experience with others who faced the same problems.   

Having empathy for our customers, employees, partners, and suppliers is one of my most valuable traits.  Being kind, humble, and passionate in whatever I do will be the key to my success.

Focus on the present moment for success, with your partner on the road now.

This trip to Perth will stay with me for a long time.

For the first time, I brought my wife and my two sons along on a business trip.

In the past, business trips were always about work… and giving myself the freedom to eat what I feel like, or go somewhere that simply makes me feel good.

This one was different. 

This one was about the kids.

New places. 

New beaches.

New playgrounds. 

New little discoveries through their eyes.

It wasn’t always easy.

There were moments of mental overload, kids fighting one minute and hugging each other the next, while calls and messages from work kept coming in asking for help.

Balancing both worlds wasn’t smooth, but somehow, everything went well in the end.

I truly hope they’ll remember this trip years from now.

Thank you to the Manitou Group for organizing this year’s event in Perth.

Slowing down, taking time, and actually enjoying each place changed how I see this city completely.

At the conference, the sessions and discussions were different, some more useful than others, but what really stood out was the commitment and the effort to keep improving. 

That matters more than perfection. 

It keeps me motivated to do better and to explore more opportunities.

I’m not sure if this trip fully healed my burnout.

But I feel genuinely happy, and I truly appreciate this past week.

Being surrounded by good people always helps.

Growth doesn’t always come from doing more.

Sometimes, it comes from slowing down and being present and enjoying the moment to the fullest.

PS: Would like to pay respects to Marcel Braud, who passed away during this period. He will be remembered with gratitude and respect.

Watching the Thai election felt a bit like watching a football match.

Didn’t expect Sunday’s election to turn out this way after looking at the scoreboard.

Some background, Phumjai Thai was never the most popular party.

For years, they felt more like a team a contender for the champion but never the favorite to win.

This time, they stepped into the game as   one of the favorites to win and eventually lifted the trophy.

But the way they won with such a big margin was too cruel to the other party.

Why did this happen even when they don't have a leader with great communication skill or the best proposed policies to change the country.

They understood something very basic:

An election is a game.

So to win the game, in my opinion, these three things matter.

First, you need to know the rules very well.

Thai elections are not decided by popularity alone.

They are decided by constituencies, local networks, and ground strength.

If you don’t understand that, you’re playing the wrong game.

Second, this is a team game.

You don’t win with ideas alone.

You win with players who are already experienced and know how to win for the team.

By bringing in strong local politicians, they didn’t just add individuals.

They brought entire vote bases with them.

Third, execution.

Campaigns are capital intensive.

Money matters. If you’re not willing to invest seriously in ground work, your chances of winning are much lower.

This is why the result makes sense to me.

They didn’t play the most beautiful game.

They played the right game for the league they were in.

From a business perspective, elections like this matter because confidence matters.

When the rules and direction feel predictable, companies can plan, invest, and move forward.

When they don’t, most businesses simply can't forecast well.

And maybe that’s the bigger lesson here.

Some teams win by playing attractive football.

Some teams win by reading the league better than everyone else.

Both can lift trophies.

The real test, in football and in politics, is what happens after the celebration.

Can the system support long-term success?

Or was this just a one time success and it goes downhill from here.

Building a club that lasts… that’s a different game altogether.
