How to grow up in a company.......

Nothing special in my daily lives, just doing my usual job as a Field Engineer, of course in the field. Hey, I just read an interesting article about a CEO of Total E&P, this is a multinational Oil company based in france.

The interesting part was that he started his career at this company, grow up in the same company, help to build the company while in mid-crysis era, until now he became the top Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the company. For sure this was a brand new perspective for me. Because as far as my concern, nowadays, the trend is, in order to grow up on your discipline then you have to get as many as opportunities you can get outside your zone. Well, this was something interesting for me, cause from where I live this perspective is really upside down. You have to move to many different company to catch those opportunities in order to become big.

Based on that article, opportunities will not be limited by a company, but it is truly limited by our own flexibility and ability to adapt to a new changes. So, eventhough you stay in one company but if you eager enough to face those opportunities and challenges within the company, I believe we can become big there as well. well, you know what they said, "slow and steady win the race".....The only way to become successfull is to accept the change s within a company, eventhough sometimes in a crisis era, try to tackle the problems, and try to be able to move from old perspective to a new one. It surely will make the day and night of our hard work really worthwhile in that company.

These things has given me a relaxed perspective and certain relativity about how to grow up in a company. The company now is not the same as 10 years ago, and surely will be a different story in 2040. Because nowadays, we live in a very rapidly changing world, that only the survivor of these changes will survive. Well for me, cause I'm still new in my company, and have no plan to move to other company, it will be a good reference for me to grow in my company now.....hopefully....

Face the failures!!!

Halo again, this is me again, and still me.


After a long while working in the field, apparently a habit of continusly learning is a must, man. I'm telling you, it's a must.

On my profession as a Field Engineer, I need to run the tools, eventhough it's already become my common sense to run the tools, yeaah....almost, but still problem occured, and if we can't handle it and become something that over our head, then for sure, failure will occur as well. And believe me, if you work in a multinational company like me, FAILURE is the last thing you want to see.



And now, these kind of things have made me became more and more patient, eventhough how difficult our situation are, but we have to keep our head still and stay calm....yeah man, keep cool, calm, and confident no matter what.


For some time, these condition frustated me a lot, trying to find the best solution, getting so much pressure from the boss and other personnel, that's really typical of a field work indeed.


But after sometimes, it became normal thing. As long as you know what you're doing, keep consistent in it, try to troubleshoot as far as you can go, don't play fast and loose, then eventually it will be like riding a bycycle., never forget how to do it.

Oke mate, this kind of things helped me to grow up, hopefully by sharing this, it will strenghthen our spirit in a new world....Peace.....
