      Richie McCaw, in full Richard Hugh McCaw, (born December 31, 1980, Oamaru, North Otago district, South Island, New Zealand), New Zealand rugby player who competed in a world-record 148 Test (international) matches and led his country’s national team, the All Blacks, to two Rugby Union World Cups (2011 and 2015).

     McCaw grew up on his family’s farm in the Hakataramea Valley and played rugby for the local Kurow Rugby Club’s junior side. At Otago Boys’ High School in Dunedin, he was “number eight” in the school’s first XV (the top-level team). Following his graduation in 1999, he joined the Christchurch Football Club. He enrolled at Lincoln University, Christchurch, to study agricultural science, but he broke off his studies when he was selected to play for the New Zealand Under-19 team for the 1999 World Under-19 Rugby Tournament, which was won by New Zealand.

         McCaw made his All Blacks debut in 2001 against Ireland in Dublin, the first of his 148 Tests. In New Zealand’s match against France in the 2011 Rugby Union World Cup, he became the first All Black to play in 100 Tests. McCaw was named captain of the All Blacks against Wales in 2004 and was given the post on a permanent basis in 2006, eventually leading the team in a record 110 Tests. New Zealand enjoyed great success during McCaw’s tenure in the side, with 131 victories (another world record), 15 losses, and 2 draws. The team won the Rugby Championship (formerly the Tri-Nations competition) 10 times (7 under his captaincy), the Bledisloe Cup contested by New Zealand and Australia 13 times (10 under his captaincy), and two Rugby Union World Cups (2011 and 2015, both under his captaincy). McCaw retired from rugby after the 2015 World Cup.

     Off the rugby field, McCaw was known for his charitable causes, which included the iSport Foundation and the organization Leukaemia and Blood Cancer New Zealand. He was also involved in fund-raising after the devastating Christchurch earthquakes of 2010–11. Following in the footsteps of his grandfather, who was a fighter pilot in World War II, McCaw was a licensed pilot. In 2015 he was made the youngest-ever member of the Order of New Zealand, and the following year he was named New Zealander of the Year. His autobiography, Richie McCaw: The Open Side (2012), was also published under the title The Real McCaw: The Autobiography. Chasing Great, a biographical documentary film, was released in 2016.

     Last but not least, besides being a great captain in the field, a great person off the field, he also a great man to his family. He is being a great dad to a cute baby girl and great husband to his wife. That is why I admire him the most. He has the quality and examples on what gentleman should have. A little less, I could apply the quality he has on my daily life.

C. Joseph Vijay (born 22 June 1974) is an Indian film actor, playback singer and dancer who works in Tamil cinema. Referred to by fans and media as Thalapathy (commander), Vijay is the highest paid actor and one of the most significant figures in the industry. By 2017, he became the second-highest grossing actor in Tamil cinema history, behind Rajinikanth.

He is fondly called Ilayathalapathy (young knight) and he is also fondly addressed as Anna (brother) by his fans. Although he had a rough beginning, he reached the peak of his career through sheer determination. Having been in the Tamil industry for more than two decades and acted in 55 movies, Vijay has been involved in numerous hit movies. Though he began as a “lover boy”, he went on to shine as a mass action hero. Apart from that, he was also adored for his amazing singing talent and arguably incredible dance moves. No matter how many successes he has achieved, he remains humble and kind. His silent demeanor makes people wonder if he is actually the same shimmering star on the screen. He takes time off his hectic schedule to painlessly serve the people who are suffering from hunger and poverty. He even turned his official fan club into an active organization which reaches out to people stricken by poverty. He also supplies stationery and computers to the schools around the area. Yet, he has never publicly spoken about it. He has kept a low profile, doing it all on his own time and accord. He has inspired not only me, but millions of fans around the world in so many ways. The list is endless. Yet, as an actor, celebrity and famous figure, he has his share of haters too. There are people who are ignorant of his talents, achievements and successes.

Before 19th century, Japan one of the far east country which also a country where chaos and civil war always occur among their own warlords or samurai.Lets direct their country does not in peace at all.Their economy also did not good plus their geography position is not strategic.

Come to this guy Mikado Meiji he changed everything on Japan until European side also terrified with their new Japan.

Lets see what does he did during his reign to make a new Japan :

1.Mikado Meiji realised that european education and system is the best in the world at that time so he adapt european education to his country with already modified to Japan's culture and tradition.

2.He sent many Japanese to go study in America and bring American knowledge back and apply to Japan benefits.He also set the Kuotai system education that make people loyal only to the Japan Emperor instead of Samurai.

3.He also give orders that Japanese required to go to school start from 6 years old.All Japanese people...even rich or poor people,all must required to go to school. 

4.Japan brings a wealth of expertise to help Japanese children learn from western progress.He also give fund to the newly company that intend to improvise their company.

5.So from that , there are several world famous Japanese company born such as Mitsui , Mitsubishi , Yasuda and Sumitomo. These companies combine and form Zaibatsu Group which this group mission is only to improve their Japan economy.

6.All tradition that didn't give benefit to country is prohibited.

7.Feudal System or Damiyo System is prohibited and all land which conquer by warlords and samurai is taken by Meiji.He replaced them with new governor which their salary is fixed and tax direct given to Meiji.

8.For samurai and warlords which already lose their job,Meiji change them from being a warlord to entrepreneur and his idea is openly accepted by samurai and warlords.Meiji idea is 'I can help you but you also have to gain own effort to earn something for country and yourself ' .

9.An energy law was enacted in 1872 that required a 20-year-old to join the army. Therefore, the Japanese National Army was formed with membership of all walks of life.

10.Japan also adapted German military technology on Japanese Army and British navy technology on Japanese Navy until Japan are able to produce their own fleet,fighter jet and other heavy military weapon.

Conclusion is we should not ignore other people's culture and knowledge.We should be eager to learn and adapt other's benefit to our self improvement.Meiji already proved that which he adapt from European and American system and then he also proved asian people also can be greater than western people such victory on Pacific War and Russian people.We could start it from now even though we are really down right now.

He impressed with his performances at amateur levels. His first step towards professional football came when he signed for Portuguese Club Sporting. While playing at Sporting, he was diagnosed with a medical condition called ‘Racing Heart’. This condition was capable of derailing his footballing career and dreams. A normal person would have been shattered on hearing this bad news about himself. But Cristiano was determined to overcome this hurdle. With the help of his club, he underwent a corrective surgery. This was the first big hurdle he overcame in his career! Since then, he has faced various challenges and overcame them with sheer determination, hard work and confidence.

LEADER I ADMIRE THE MOST

 LEADER I ADMIRE THE MOST

Assalammualaikum,today i will share about the leader i admire the most.

which is oldest goverment leader in Asia which is Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

google image

I admire him because he was the fourth Prime Minister of Malaysia. He was born on 20 December 1925 in Alor Setar, the capital of the State of Kedah, Tun Dr. Mahathir did his early and secondary education in his home town. In 1947, he gained admission into the King Edward VII College of Medicine in Singapore. Upon graduation, he joined the Malaysian government service as a Medical Officer. He left in 1957 to set up his own practice in Alor Setar. Tun Dr. Mahathir has been active in politics since 1945. He has been a member of the United Malays National Organisation  (UMNO) since its inception in 1946.

The oldest elected government leader in the world, Malaysian Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, is easily one of the most respected and most influential people in the world. 

We mean, it's not hard to see why a lot of people look up to him: he's 94 years old and he's still working really hard to save the country that he loves.

A recent study shows that Malaysians really do think highly of him.

 The next reason why I admire Tun Dr Mahathir is because he is a person who loves knowledge. Although he is already 91 years old, it never creates a barrier for him to stop gaining knowledge. He still reads and always write up blogs and post to share his idea especially about our beloved country Malaysia.

                In a nutshell, my dream is to be like Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamed and meet him. I hope i even will be strong like him when im in his age. I hope he will always continue serving the country and the newer generations will not forget his contributions.

My Inspired Leader

One of my favorite leader that inspired me is Lady Diana. This is her.

“Everyone needs to be valued, everyone has the potential to give something back.” – Lady Diana

Lady Diana grew up in an aristocratic family, clearly no stranger from networking at social gatherings with the elite upper class and having the attention drawn to her. All that was quickly put into perspective when she became Princess Diana of Wales after marrying Prince Charles in 1981. Lady Diana’s legacy reached far beyond Wales and continues to impact people to this day.

Lady Diana was an exemplary leader of being true to oneself. When put in a position of power she handled it with grace while maintaining all her core values and principles. Lady Diana was known for being one of the first British Monarch’s to adopt servant leadership style. This can be seen from her smallest acts of acknowledging people to charitable acts of global significance.

source : Google image

Diana maintained close contact with common-folk, breaking class norms especially for someone of her social ranking. At a time when AIDS was considered to be contagious through contact, she would go and spend time with those diagnosed with the condition in hospitals and at treatment centers and be photographed holding their hand to destroy the stigma. She was also a large advocate for homelessness aiding in destroying the stigma for that as well, a case that many in the royal family before her had never advocated for. Using her social status and power to change her country’s view on important social issues that were deemed undesirable for centuries, Diana was truly the people’s princess.

source : Google image

Lady Diana was thrust into the limelight immediately upon her marriage with Prince Charles. The public was fascinated with the matrimony. Nearly 600,000 people gathered in the streets to attend the wedding and another 750 million people watched on television. People quickly fell in love with Diana’s philanthropy, style and fact that she was unwilling to conform to the predetermined lifestyle of the Monarch. Diana was determined to raise her two children to be humble and use their power to better the lives of the people, not just let the predetermined social status carry them throughout their life.

source : Google image

Diana was a servant and then a leader, an advocate for the people. Upon her death in 1997 in Paris, 2.5 billion people watched her funeral on television. A statistic representing a fragment of the impact servant leadership can have on the united world.

“I think the biggest disease the world suffers from in this day and age is the disease of people feeling unloved,” – Princess Diana

hye every one.. how are u guys doing? few more month to finish ey!. so as we strive to the end of our lecture here I hope we all stay focus and keep the energy.

Introduction to Management (Influencing)

   Management can be defined as the process of administering and controlling the affairs of the organization, irrespective of its nature, type, structure and size. It is an act of creating and maintaining such a business environment wherein the members of the organization can work together, and achieve business objectives efficiently and effectively.

  I will be focusing on influencing and its importance in effective management. First of all, what is influencing? According to the Association of Project Management, influencing means an act of affecting the behaviours and actions of others. Influencing is a necessary skill for anyone in business, whether a person is a manager or a salesperson. The ability to bring others to your way of thinking without force or coercion is important in business. Influencing others is a transferable skill business persons take with them from job to job in the business world. Managers want to convince employees to work hard, and salesmen need to convince clients their product is the best purchase choice, for example. 

  In order to effectively influence an individual, one must posses a variety of skills such as sensory awareness (understanding your own behaviour and that of others), emotional intelligence (representing your own feelings and those of others), communication skills (flexibility in approaches, methods and media), negotiation skills (ability to persuade and find a mutually acceptable position), contextual awareness (ability to select the appropriate time, place and contributors),  cultural awareness (understanding the wide diversity of factors, from background, race, gender and learning styles, to communication, values and beliefs). 

 One quality that is vital for influencing is confidence. Being able to influence others in meetings and other business exchanges requires confidence. Even when you don’t have the authority to make a certain decision, being able to influence others can give you the confidence you need to suggest a change to managers and get them to accept your idea. If others regularly influence you when you want to say, “No,” knowing how to influence can also help you stand your ground and successfully persuade others that your way of thinking is correct.

  Influencing can be overt, discreet, conscious or subconscious and can be applied to any, or all, stakeholders. The actions of an individual or group can also indirectly influence others who are not stakeholders. For example, a team working on a new product or service may be very positive about their task. This enthusiasm then becomes general knowledge and leads others in the wider organisation to ask about the work and even to seek to participate in it or use its products.

  Influence evolves as relationships are built between parties. Relationships can be based on positive factors such as shared values, ethical positions, trust and genuine liking and respect. In some situations influencing is wholly based on perceived authority. This can be negative as it provides an ability to influence based upon fear and insecurity. This, in turn, can easily become a form of control that leads to compliance without commitment.
