THE GOOD - As part of my company change culture program, all HOD is required to meet with staff once a month a give a talk about our new culture. Outside world will hear our change program in January.

THE BAD - Since this is a company wide program, the presentation slides were prepared by our Communication team to ensure consistency and quality. If you have presented before, you know how hard it can be to explain some of the slides when you did not prepare the deck. Anyhow, I managed

THE UGLY - And since some of my older staff could not understand English well (yes, these people exist), things can get pretty ugly. I have no issue translating "spontaneous" in malay ('spontan' if you don't already know). But when words like "determined" and "willing" have to be explained in Malay, I was stumped. I tried, honestly, I did. I am just not sure how the staff takes it. {rofl}
