New Year, New Ways of Working

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 11:39:04 +0800

Rethinking Office Practices Through Digitalisation

The start of a new year often brings fresh energy — new goals, new KPIs, new expectations. But for many organisations, especially in Malaysia, the way we work hasn’t really changed, despite the changing business landscape.

Emails pile up. Approvals get stuck. Files live in someone’s laptop. Meetings are scheduled just to “update”. Sound familiar?

2026 can be the year we stop working harder and start working smarter wink.

Digitalisation isn’t about fancy tools or jumping on trends. It’s about simplifying work, reducing friction, and allowing people to focus on what truly matters.

Digitalisation Is Not About Technology. It’s About Behaviour

One common misconception is that digitalisation means buying new software.

In reality, digitalisation starts with changing habits:

How information is shared

How decisions are approved

How tasks are tracked

How teams collaborate

Technology only supports these behaviours.

If processes are unclear, no system will magically fix them. But when processes are clear, the right digital tools can make them faster, cleaner, and more transparent.

Common Office Frustrations That We’ve All Faced

Let’s be honest. We face the same challenges:

“I thought you were handling this.”“Can you resend the file? I can’t find the latest version.”“Approval still pending, boss is busy.”“We already discussed this last month, right?”

These are not people problems. They are process problems. And the good news? Most of them are very fixable.

Practical Digitalisation Tips for the New Year

Here are some realistic, non-overwhelming ways to improve how your office works, without disrupting everything overnight.

1. Centralise Information

If documents, data, and conversations live in too many places, confusion is inevitable.

Tip: Have one central platform for:

Files
Updates
Task discussions

When everyone knows where to look, productivity naturally improves.

2. Make Work Visible (No More Guessing)

Many delays happen because work progress is invisible.

Tip: Use simple task tracking:

What needs to be done
Who is responsible
When it’s due

This reduces follow-ups, unnecessary meetings, and stress, especially for managers.

3. Simplify Approvals (Speed Matters)

Approval bottlenecks are common, especially in growing organisations.

Tip: Digitise approvals so they can be:

Reviewed anytime
Approved from anywhere
Tracked clearly

Less chasing, more clarity.

4. Reduce Internal Emails (Yes, Really)

Emails are useful, but not for everything.

Tip: For internal work:

Use shared comments
Keep discussions tied to tasks
Avoid long email chains

Your inbox, and mind, will thank you.

5. Automate Small, Repetitive Tasks

Automation doesn’t have to be complex.

Tip: Start small:

Auto-assign tasks
Auto-notify stakeholders
Auto-update statuses

These small wins add up over time.

Digitalisation Is a Journey, Not a One-Time Project

Many leaders hesitate because they think digitalisation must be expensive, complicated, or disruptive. In reality, the most successful transformations happen gradually. Start with one department. One process. One improvement.

Sikit-sikit, lama-lama jadi bukit.

A Gentle Note on Digital Tools

At the end of the day, tools are enablers, not the hero. There are platforms today that help businesses manage:

Customer relationships
People operations
Finance
Projects
Internal collaboration

The key is not which tool you use, but how intentionally you use it to support your people and processes. Choose solutions that:

Are easy to adopt
Grow with your business
Encourage transparency and accountability

Final Thoughts. Make This Year Count!

A new year is more than a calendar change. It’s an opportunity to reset how work feels, for leaders and teams alike.

Digitalisation, when done right, creates:

Less stressClearer communicationFaster decisionsHappier teams

And that’s something worth investing in. Here’s to a smarter, more organised, and more human way of working. Selamat Tahun Baru. Let’s work better, together.

Perbezaan Paten & Hakcipta ( patent dan copyright )

Perbezaan Paten & Hakcipta (Patent dan Copyright)

Paten & Hakcipta

Kecoh Twitter dan Tiktok sekarang bercerita tentang “copyright squareshawl” satu jenama tudung ni. Kisahnya, pengasas tudung tersebut telah memberi amaran kepada orang ramai supaya jangan meniru potongan tudung dia tu. Dia mendakwa bentuk potongan tudung tersebut telah di“copyright” oleh jenama dia.

Tapi netizen pulak cakap yang ‘style’ potongan atau bentuk tudung tersebut dah lama dah pun ada dalam pasaran. Persoalannya, kenapa nak copyright? Wajar ke copyright? Yang paling penting valid ke copyright dia tu??? Ada jugak sesetengah netizen yang mengatakan patutnya perkataan yang digunakan adalah paten, bukan hakcipta. Eh betul ke?

Jom kita tengok dulu apa perbezaan paten dan hakcipta .

Untuk paten, ini merupakan rekacipta yang TIDAK BOLEH dipatenkan:

Penemuan, teori-teori saintifik dan kaedah-kaedah matematik.

Varieti tumbuhan atau binatang atau proses yang ada pada dasarnya adalah proses biologi bagi pengeluaran tumbuhan atau binatang, selain daripada mikro organisma hidup buatan manusia, proses mikrobiologi dan keluaran-keluaran proses mikro-organisma itu.

Skim, aturan atau kaedah bagi menjalankan perniagaan, melakukan perbuatan-perbuatan mental semata-mata atau bermain apa-apa permainan.

Kaedah-kaedah merawat tubuh manusia atau binatang melalui pembedahan atau terapi, dan kaedah-kaedah diagnosis yang dilakukan kepada tubuh manusia atau binatang.

Maklumat tambahan tentang hakcipta pula, dari segi perlindungan (hakcipta), bagi karya sastera, seni dan muzik tempoh perlindungan adalah semasa hayat pencipta dan 50 tahun selepas kematiannya. Bagi karya rakaman bunyi, filem dan siaran pula, perlindungan adalah selama 50 tahun selepas tarikh ia diterbitkan.

Jadi, berdasarkan maklumat ini semua, anda rasa valid atau tidak “copyright squareshawl” tersebut? Anda sendiri yang nilai!

Hopefully penerangan ini dapat membantu mereka-mereka yang mahu membuat copyright atau patent produk mereka. Ambil ilmu dulu baru buat content okay *wink*

Why Changes Fail - From Our Experience

Thu, 15 Jun 2023 15:55:55 +0800

Why Changes Fail - From Our Experience

Change is inevitable, but not always for the better

If you go say, skydiving and the instructor say you have about 75% to 95% chance of splatting to the ground and die, would you do it? If you are normal like I assume you are, or anybody with a right mind for that matter; would say no. Hell no.

Then, why do people line up to do digital changes in their companies? Because surprise, surprise, 75% - 95% is the range of rate of failure of such projects. Would you take the figurative dive into it?

Now, it's not a fair comparison, I know. Changes in our organization mean opportunities to improve efficiency, facilitate human capital growth, reduce cost in the long run, and hopefully, increase revenue. Skydiving's pay up is the immediate and fleeting rush of adrenaline at the moment, but in business, there's a huge upside to look forward to.

But still, the chance for you to fail is high. Which begs the question, why? Let's 'dive' right into it.

1. Nobody knows how to use it

This is the primary reason for digital transformation failure. And you can be certain, and even use this as a measuring stick that if there's nobody in your company who has enough skills in the technology or the process being introduced and used, the project will almost always fail in the end.

We've seen a lot of these cases ourselves. Staff whom we trained and supported to the bone to make the technology their bread and butter, left the company. And because the company had an improper handover process, the knowledge couldn't be transferred in a timely manner. Everything went out together with that employee.

The issue is not the employee leaving (although in part it is), but the issue lies when the company underestimates the need to have enough people who are skilful enough to use the technology and understand the process being implemented. With this mindset, they don't see the need to properly train the staff, take new ones to fill in the vacuum, and to do a periodical audit. The aftermath? Two possibilities;

The company abandons the changes and technology; rendering all the investment, thus far wasteful, or;
The company spends more on staff retraining while facing a long and painful downtime.

Both scenarios waste a lot of money, time, and effort. Wait, isn't that what we're trying to save by implementing the changes? Ironic, I know.

Employees should be provided with enough training and support. Not just one, but both. If they are not properly trained, then how can they be excited about the changes? The things that are supposedly there to help their job are now just another hindrance and add to their workload. They'll become resistant, for sure.

But some of them may take extra initiatives to find information and to ask around. Without a strong support system, even the best of them could wither and lose interest. Many companies underestimate the need to have continuous support from the vendor and more importantly from a select few within their organization. Failure to establish a sturdy support system is equivalent to having a weak foundation.

2. Changes are being forced down

There's a saying I stumbled upon not too long ago when I was reading a book, it goes,

"A change imposed, is a change opposed"

What a powerful quote that is, partly, because it rhymes.

But what it means is no less true. A change that is forced, mandated, and shoved down the throats of your employees will almost always be regurgitated in a a disgusting manner resulting in a pool of contemptuous vomit. Nobody likes the sight of it, everybody pinches down their nose from the sheer smell of it and worse, now other people are feeling queasy too. It's a matter of time that this would be a chain of mass vomiting across the organization.

Psychologically speaking, people want to feel like they have some say in something and they have a level of control over it. If you impose these changes without getting input and buy-ins from the very people who would be using the system day in and day out, beware, you're guaranteed a ticket to failure valley.

The simple solution to this is to include key users in the discussion to decide things. Keep them involved in every step of the way and provide them with clarity as to why this needs to be done and you need their input to make this a success. That notion alone will make people more willing to go through the change later on. Don't 'act' like you care, please, do actually care what they say.

3. It's too big, it's too sudden!

Have you ever stood up too fast and your world suddenly spins and you started to lose your bearings? Yes, it's like that. Although standing up to go do something else is a must, we know not to do it too quickly and to adjust our speed accordingly. It's the same with an organization. If you ask it to go through a drastic change both in size and speed, everybody would be in disarray and disorganized. Worse case scenario? The company will fall. You know what they say about a fall; the bigger you are, the harder the fall.

We've implemented solutions to a group of companies. We went to its subsidiaries and trained their staff all over the country. But what you might not know is, those companies are forced to take up these new applications almost immediately. The time given was not nearly enough for the whole organization to prepare themselves for a change of this magnitude. This primarily, among other factors, contributed to the inevitable collapse of the implemented solutions, resulting in literally, hundreds of thousands of bucks of losses.

The idea of change for the better is completely welcome and much needed in a sense, but execution matters. Let people be accustomed to a few things first, run a good campaign, implement the changes in stages, have a check every now and then to get a continuous feedback, and adjust accordingly.

4. Poor communication

Taking the group of companies as an example again, we can see that this is also a major contributor to the failure of a change. Let me paint you a picture to demonstrate one aspect of a failed communication. When we went to a subsidiary in the north to train their staff, we were warmly welcomed and thus we started our role.

1 hour into the training, we noticed some yawns and some steam coming out of heads, as if they are just waiting to explode. So we stopped. We asked them, "are you guys fine so far? Anything you want to raise?" And this got to be the most surprising statement/question ever.

"We've only heard of this system an hour ago. What is it for?"

I can almost see the look on your face, because that's how we looked when they ask the question.

This shows that the changes were not properly communicated to the end users; the very people who would be using the system daily. Not even what are the changes that are going to be implemented, let alone the reasons behind it and how it would impact the people's day to day work. The first time they hear about it, is from the vendor, and during the training session, no less.

It's common sense, really. You have to tell everybody what will be changing. Why are you changing it? How is this going to affect everybody? What can they do to prepare themselves? How can you help to prepare them? What are the benefits that they can get out of the changes? Assure people that their jobs will stay relevant and secure. A proper planning, particularly in communicating these changes will go a long way. For your sake, talk, people!

5. It doesn't stick

To be precise, the organization fails to sustain the change and champion it all the way after the initial stages. True, there are things to be done before the implementation, i.e. Planning it, communicating it, and scheduling it. And then, doing the implementation itself, which involves an exhaustive list of things to do.

I remember this one particular client. We implemented a highly customized and automated system for them. A lot of manual and analogue work from the old ways were transformed to the digital format and thus rendered the conventional methods redundant, supposedly. I personally remember this case vividly because I was the one who did all the works; from planning, implementing, training, and documenting. So I am personally invested, hoping with every fibre of my being, that the system will be used and things would be easier for everybody.

Sadly, even after 2 years of subscribing to the system, it was not used properly and thus the full potential of our (my) solution could not be harvested. The reason? There's not enough push from the management to sustain the change. Every time somebody complains, the management caved in and allowed them to fall back to the old ways. When somebody came and try to understand the system, the management was not supportive enough to give a timely action in forms of retraining or even giving sufficient information.

The management also did not monitor the effectiveness and failed to measure any goals. Without an end to the means, then to where are we supposed to go? Give us a shiny ship with all the latest gizmos to sail in but give us no map, we're just another pathetic vessel in the unforgiving ebb and flow of the ocean.

Wrapping Up

In the end, as an organization, it is progress for the better that we want for our company. Nobody in their right mind would want their company to fail after spending so much money, time, and effort. Our experience so far has taught us a very valuable lesson; a lesson that you might be able to read and listen to anywhere. But experiencing it is another thing. It really hits us different and we hope it will give you a better realization as well.

To help you invoke some good thoughts before you go into this change process, we have prepared a free Change Readiness Assessment tool that you and your employee can take. The answers to the questions will give you an overview of the individual's readiness and your company's readiness as well. Don't make the same mistakes, we sincerely hope you won't.

As always, good luck.

5 Types of Effective Responses That You Can Use For An Automated Message Response

Thu, 21 Jul 2022 11:33:13 +0800

5 Types of Effective Responses for an Automated Message Response

Types of Effective Responses

Trouble responding to your customers or any contacts is one of the common problems that people face in today's era. As technology progresses, so does our way of communicating. Sending email, making reservations, texting and other related communication medium has been nothing but convenient for everyone. No interruption and free will of writing.

However, when coming across in a situation where you are not reachable, it can jeopardize your work flow and performance as it will interfere with clients or people that you have linked with. That being said, everyone tends to forget that people work to live, and not live to work.

So the common problem remain to exist because it is an unavoidable problem due to the fact that not everyone is working 24 hours a day. Nonetheless, the show must go on.

To overcome this unavoidable flaw, we improvise. How? Introducing 'Automation Reply Messages'.

A brief understanding of what is Automation Reply Messages: it is a computer generated response that helps in replying to inbound messages such as - direct messages, emails, responses or even a welcoming message automatically while you are out of reach.

That way, your customer would not feel 'ghosted' when you are not around. That too will sustain your relationship with clients and networks.

Benefits

1. Save Time and Money

We put time and money as prior to one of the benefits because it is proven that it does save time and money. Simply because an automated response or message will definitely save your time in replying messages.

Especially when you have a pile of messages to reply and go through. Cost on the other hand can be save more on labour. Automated messages can do all the responses for you while you still enjoying that time off.

2. Save Customers Time

Often times customers are able to save up their time whenever they require immediate response. Customers and clients can expect when your personal reply will come because the automated reply will acknowledge them on your current situation.

Through these automated messages reply, you are killing two birds with one stone by maintaining a good relationship with your customers / clients without having to open up any devices to respond and also you get to have your quality time while letting the AI do all the work for you.

3. Quicker Responses During 'Away' Hours

Automated message reply can lead to a better response not only during away time specifically. In fact, for SMEs, can also bring benefits as it really helps in terms of answering precise question such as - answering by sending direct links leading to your website and other businesses info.

Not only that, SMEs can maximize their productivity with effective approach by not having your employees covering you and possibly not leaving your customers on 'ghost mode' too.

Consequences

1. Can Feel Impersonal

On the other hand, there are also some appealing flaws about Automating Message Reply that we would want our readers to consider because when you can identify your weakness, you can definitely identify your progress and growth. So when you are starting with Automated Message Reply, bare in mind that it can be impersonal sometimes.

Not every person can be tolerated. Some might feel as if doing business with your company does not add any value due to some people that do not appreciate the quick answers. To overcome this as a company, you need to reflect on how can the message reply be as humanly interactive as possible.

2. Can Be Annoying

Having to rely on automated responses all the time can also be pathetic if you do not be careful with it and neglect your customers' question entirely. There are times where human interaction is required. Conversing between AI and actual human have two completely different feelings.

Not all questions can be answered by bot. Human conversations are undeniably more linear oriented path of understanding. However if you mainly focus on auto responses as your response solution, then you might have to rethink about it. Customers can easily feel irritated regarding on that matter.

3. Requires Time and Effort to Set Up

Although it all may seem rainbow and sunshine doing automated responses. On the contrary, it requires full dedication of your time and resources upfront to be able to set up whatever it is that you need for your Automated Message Reply process. Such as providing enough information, the system works well for customers, does not leave anything out, and is also able to answer all common questions.

Following to that matter, your automated messaging will not be as helpful as you hoped it to be and can cause a more serious problem if you do not invest upfront.

Principles

Don't have the slightest idea on how to initiate an automated response/reply? Let us guide you. Automated Message Reply 101:

Plan - Plan ahead and draft your auto replies beforehand, followed by testing. This will help you to fully optimize your auto response before going on live.
Proofread - Be sure that your auto response is free from spelling and grammatical errors. It is encouraged that you should convey in a welcoming tone and is easy to understand.
Include clear dates - When communicating dates, use specific information that cannot be misunderstood. For example, 'Oct-8' instead of '10-08'.
Give a timeline - Provide a date for your auto response to tell your colleagues, lead or customers when they can expect to hear from you.
Include other contacts - Include in contact information for your colleagues, lead or customer that they can contact while you are away.
Include relevant links - If there are certain matter that needs to be shared with a link, it is great that you do so and it can be useful for the people that need to reach out to you.
Include emergency contact information - Last but not least, you might also want to include an emergency contact so people can contact in case of an emergency.

Why are papers still a thing in 2021?

Why Are Papers Still a Thing in 2021?

The Future of a Paperless Workplace

It's the year 2021 and we still depend on papers. Should we call ourselves old-fashioned then? Have we grown so accustomed to it that shifting away seems like an impossible thing to do.

But at the same time, it doesn't make sense don't you think? Technology evolvement is as spectacular as ever and yet we rather have certain documents printed on pieces of paper instead of storing them on our magnifico, 'can't-live-without' technological gadgets.

So why is it this way? The answer to that isn't complicated at all – papers are reliable. It can never be hacked nor get corrupted in any way possible. Well, some may argue – papers could also go missing or even be photocopied. But let's be real, the level of trust you have on that piece of paper is way more than the many soft copies you store on your laptops. True or false?

10,000 sheets: That's how much paper an average office employee prints each year – equivalent to a huge 45ft tall tree worth of paper. Tropical rainforests cover huge areas of land in Malaysia, but that doesn't mean we should take advantage of that, and these 10,000 sheets printed eventually end up as wastelands.

What is the other alternative to this - Digital transformation. Here's why;

Aspect	Papers	Digital
Costing	Papers are cheap, but printers, inks, maintenance and servicing are nowhere near cheap.	Save significantly on costs by having everything done digitally.
Long-lasting	Papers can be kept a long time, but accumulate into cabinets filled with excessive documents.	Cloud storage keeps all your documents seamlessly and safely stored.
Practicality	Sticking to a paper policy risks being left out amongst competitors.	A future-proof, paperless workplace keeps you ahead as more companies embrace digital transformation.

Conclusion

Don't fear digital transformation, embrace it! Get started by first selecting a suitable business software that meets all your business requirements and needs. Psst… we suggest you go for ZOHO! Oh it's one of the best out there, trust us!
