Curating Hasannudin

This website compiles my past online presence from my inactive blogs to many of my Instagram and LinkedIn contents. From December 2016, I add new posts here (in category “hasansaidin.comBlog”) and I continue importing from elsewhere, including from my professional website/blog, rubah.my (in category “RubahWebsite/Blog”).

Why the albatross? I have been mesmerized by the bird since the 1970's when I first heard the song, "Albatross" by Fleetwood Mac. I looked for and finally in 2014 I saw my albatross in all its splendour in New Zealand.

Hasannudin Saidin: Guiding Light For Learners

In 2015 I decided NOT to retire, but to rewire. After more than 32 years of working in corporate, it was time for me to pay it forward, on my own terms.

I will eventually pay forward to millions of people. For now I make a positive difference to the world around me, person by person, group by group, team by team, organization by organization, nation by nation.

I created my company, Rubah Associates with the tagline of Horizoning our future, like the albatross over the horizon, bringing out the best of people and myself, in finding new horizons. My “rewire” now has me focusing on being a CEO Coach.

"When I'm 64"

“Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I’m 64?” - The Beatles

On 22 September 2021, I was a participant showcasing my business at a “Peers On Demand” virtual event hosted by Rocky Romero.

Why do we do what we do? — this video excerpt (5.5 minutes) from that showcasing gave my answer.

Workcation

Thanks to Naadiah Mazlani, I got introduced to the word “workcation.” Now that I have declared I am on workcation, my mindset is different. I don’t have that nagging question, “Why are you on Zoom working? You’re supposed to be resting!”

I am in Penang these couple of weeks. This workcation finds me working during the scheduled times while being away from my home office in Kuala Lumpur, this week at my son’s apartment and next week hopefully at a beach resort. The vacation part has the main purpose being the welcoming of my new grandchild. Yay, baby girl Hessa Hadi has arrived in this world! The work part are mainly the virtual coaching sessions and virtual events I am conducting. Work gets done while I can enjoy playing with grandchildren and time-lapse videoing clouds and beach sunsets.

Building Trust

Building trust - it’s simple (not necessarily easy): back to the age-old traits of kindness, equity, justice, and charity!

Thank you to Richard CM Wong who introduced me to the book, “The Trusted Advisor” by David H. Maister et al.

Thank you to Andrew Wong who introduced me to the book, “You’re Invited: The Art And Science Of Cultivating Influence” by Jon Levy.

I help people be effective at self-learning.

People have at their disposal an abundance of knowledge resources, such as books, articles and papers (physical or digital), videos, podcasts, online courses, as well as other people more familiar with the subject that the self-learner wants to master.

I help self-learners clarify their desired learning outcome, attitude and process, and guide them to achieve the outcome.

Give, and give more! Part 2 of bookchat on Adam Grant’s book, “Give and Take”

I was a guest again of Faz Kamar and Nurul Fathiyah Muen in a live-streaming show, this time for Part 2 of our bookchat on Adam Grant's book, "Give and Take: Why Helping Others Drive Our Success."

My wow moment in the book is.... when I am tired, exhausted, knackered of giving, giving and giving, GIVE MORE! And I will get even more energy.

View the video for the full story and our final discussion on the book:

Intro and outro music are from this song:
You Get What You Give by Young Radicals
