Passion is very important in all our undertaking, HR concerns

1.  In the presentation by Chit Juan for Figaro, she quoted George Hegel that nothing in this world gets done without Passion

2.   MVP, of Pacific group emphasized the importance of PIC in selecting staff:

                            Passion
                            Integrity
                            Competence

From Self Dev by Prof Jorge

PIC from Manny Pangilinan at Philstar

    Old school HR emphasized only skills, abilities knowledge, IQ.  But now we have EQ (Emotional
    Quotient)  Emotional Intelligence, ie, the ability of a person to motivate himself and others

   We thus must look for applicants who have passion:  zest for work, zest for living, and zest for interest outside their work, that they are willing to devote time and effort even without money consideration.  (If we just work for money, then we are all like "prosti"   as Julia Roberts say in Pretty Woman that its shameful to do wonderful things to others just because we are paid....Aray..)

I found out this passion for work, that I worked like mad to complete a project ie repainting run down
Bianchi bike, sold by someone who raced for Bianchi 7-11 team, and found out that the bike frame I bought for almost a song, is actually a gem.

I had it repainted, put some stickers, bought a new lighter wheel set. Except for the paint job and the sticker job, I did many things with my own hands:   disassembly, assembly and removing the bugs.

Three things bothered me in the reassembly:    the bottom bracket reinstallation (the paint job that spilled on the thread made reinstallation extremely difficult, the seat post got stuck (it wont go down, again due to lousy paint job) and the headset  (kumakalog then later found out that the bearings conked out)

I was involved in many large 7 to 8 numbers project, but nothing gave me more excitement and thrill
of achievement than this Bianchi Freccia Celeste project

                                                        Am extremely proud of this achievement

                                      Now with very light, 1435 grams Novatec Jetfly wheels

                                                    Needed lighter aero drop bar brakes are now
