Hyundai Motor Europe’s Post

I recently had the incredible opportunity to visit Hyundai in South Korea, and among the many inspiring stories I heard, one about the company's founder, Chung Ju-yung, left a lasting impression on me. Chung Ju-yung once said, "The principle guiding my life is doing my earnest best until the final moment, with nothing more to add." This philosophy was shaped by an unusual but profound lesson he learned while working as a construction laborer in Inchon. As Chung recounted in his autobiography, he used to sleep on a table in the workers' lodge. Bedbugs would climb onto his body, so he put the table legs in bowls of water to stop them. Remarkably, the bedbugs adapted by climbing the walls and dropping from the ceiling to reach him. This relentless pursuit by the bedbugs to achieve their goal—feeding—touched him deeply. Inspired by their tenacity, Chung vowed to "put his best efforts into his life, just like those bedbugs." Here are my key takeaways from this story: 1. Persistence: The bedbugs' determination to reach their goal, despite obstacles, mirrors the persistence needed in achieving our own goals. Consistent effort, even in the face of setbacks, is crucial for success. 2. Ingenuity:The bedbugs' ability to find alternative routes when their primary path was blocked highlights the importance of creativity and problem-solving. When faced with challenges, finding innovative solutions is key. 3. Adaptability:Just as the bedbugs adapted their approach, we must be flexible and ready to adjust plans as circumstances change. Adaptability ensures we stay on track despite unexpected changes. 4. Attention to Detail:Chung’s strategy to place the table legs in bowls of water shows the importance of thorough planning and attention to detail. Anticipating and mitigating potential issues can prevent larger problems. 5. Relentless Effort:Chung’s takeaway from the bedbugs’ persistence underscores the value of putting forth your best effort until the very end. Maintaining high levels of effort and commitment throughout any endeavor is essential. Chung Ju-yung’s story is a powerful reminder that persistence, ingenuity, adaptability, attention to detail, and relentless effort are essential traits for achieving success in any aspect of life. #Leadership #Hyundai #Inspiration #ChungJuYung #LessonsLearned #Persistence #Ingenuity #Adaptability #AttentionToDetail #RelentlessAfford

Hyundai Motor America celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with various activities including a fireside chat with Carlos Servin, the senior vice president, profit optimization in the Hyundai Motor Company COO Office. Some great takeaways from Carlos Servin that I would like to share with you all... #Leadership is important to grow within an organization. It's very important to care for your people and to not only listen to your team but to take care of your team. #Communication is very important to achieve results and be a good leader. #Listen to problems and implement fair solutions. Use different strategies to communicate. His motto/ideology is: 1. The sky is the limit, aim high if you want to reach it. You need to get there with #conviction and there will be ways to achieve it. 2. Continuous improvement – Have vision, know where you want to go and have step by step solutions to get there. I loved Carlos' life example... He mentioned that now that he's older (I won't reveal his age.), he wanted to take up running again like when he was younger and be better than he was in his 20s. He strived for continuous improvement, set a goal to beat his running time from when he was in his 20s. He prepared by practicing and training, improved his diet and nutrition, and worked on getting better sleep. This didn't happen overnight... Ultimately, over time, he beat his running time from when he was in his 20s! *His key point is that he set an objective/goal, prepared with milestones and mini goals, and then he reached his ultimate goal. He thought his age would limit him, but it didn't! He achieved it through continuous #improvement and didn’t limit himself. *This is his philosophy that he applies to his personal life and to his career. He recommended the book: The Art of War His favorite Hispanic dish: #SALSA <-- Everything taste better with salsa, well almost everything in Spanish culture! Thank you Carlos for your inspiring words and leadership! I really enjoyed learning from you and about you! #HispanicHeritageMonth #HyundaiLife

On the 7th October, I thought I'd failed. A few months ago, I wanted to create brand awareness for my brand BTW.Automotive. So I participated in a Malaysia event called Motormaniac Encore Edition. It's an event where people can come and showcase their cars and brands to create exposure in the car scene. I had the perfect line-up to showcase my brand where I'm gonna showcase the projects bikes that we design. The problem we face is that we can't get it ready by 7th October. So I wanted to pull the plug. Just nice, 1 week before the event. I had an idea to just ask my Msia friends to join me in building my brand in Malaysia. They were on board and willing to spend the 3 days with me to create brand awareness. When we reached the event site, people were wondering where BTW came from and when we told them that we are Singapore-based. They were all excited and wanted to know more about us and what we do. It was heartwarming because the crowd at the event was very supportive. I thought this event would be a failure for my brand, but to be honest. Without taking a leap of faith, I wouldn't know the results. Just by this event, we managed to get a few interesting clients that want to work with us. I also learned that, no matter what. Langgar jer. Tak langgar tak tawu. Which means. GO ONLY. NEVER GO, NEVER KNOW THE RESULT. #BTWAutomotive
