30 Trilyun Buat Ngeblok Situs Porno...
Untuk proyek filterisasi situs PORNO, SBY menganggarkan 30 Trilyun.... sementara rakyat pada susah beli minyak, pendidikan mahal, dan lapangan kerja terbatas. 30 Trilyunn yun yun yun...kalo kita belikan beras yang seliter harganya Rp.5000 (yg rasanya agak pera) akan dapet 6milyar liter, jika sebulan 1 keluarga dengan 4 orang membutuhkan 50 liter akan dapat menghidupi 120juta keluarga Indonesia, atau bisa menghidupi 10juta keluarga miskin dalam setahun. Setidaknya bisa mengurangi index kemiskinan sebesar 25%. Tapi pemerintah lebih memilih menghabiskan 30 trilyun untuk sesuatu yg masgul, spekulatif dan kucing-kucingan.

What Does a Coach Do?
The above question is a question on many people's mind. What do I do? The best way to think about it is to think of a sports team. A Coach is there with the team. The Coach does not play in the game, but the Coach helps the players identify areas to improve their game.
The following is a list of things a sports Coach does with their teams:
- they provide encouragement, even when the team loses the game
- they encourage players to discuss all aspects of the game, the good and the bad
- they provide inspiration and motivation to the players by helping them see the positives
- they have a vision for the team, and are constantly sharing this vision with the players
- they constantly look for ways to help their players by identifying training needs, areas where they can help the player improve
- they are open to change, will listen to change, will listen to their players ideas, and the Coach is willing to make changes to see the team succeed
- they communciate expectations, and work with the team to meet the expectations
- they help the team stay focused on solutions rather than problems
- they believe in their people and work to ensure potential is developed
- they are demanding also wanting the team to do better; they ensure the skills the players have learned are practiced
- they will focus on the "why" something happened, not the "how" did it happen
- when on the playing field, the minute to minute decisions are made by the players, the Coach does not make all the decisions
- they sit on the sidelines and observe, they do not go on the field and play the game.
However, if the game is not going well, they will make changes for the overall good of the
team
- when the team wins the game, the team is in the lime light, the Coach is not the center of attention
- they create shared goals among the team
- they spend a lot of time getting to know and understanding each individual on the team
- they are committed to the team
If you translate the role of a "Sports Coach" to a "Business Coach" you find similar attributes that apply in a business environment. A "Business Coach":
- provides encouragement
- encourages open discussion
- provides inspiration and motivation
- provides direction to the team and shares the vision of the corporation
- identifies training needs and areas requiring improvement
- is open to change, willing to try new ideas
- communicates expectations
- focuses on solutions not problems
- believes in people, sees the potential
- has high expectations, ecourages and assists people to achieve their potential
- removes barriers and roadblocks to team goals
- ensures skills learned are put into practice
- focuses on the “why”, not the “how”
- steps in if team is outside the boundaries or not meeting expectations
- leaves the day to day decisions to the team
- rewards team for accomplishments, gives the team credit
- spends time with the team, identifying peoples strengths and weaknesses, understanding cultural differences, and issues that face each individual
A Coach, in a business environment, is also a role model for staff. The Coach sets an
example for others to follow. The behavior of the Coach, especially when all is not going well, is especially important. The Coach cannot say one thing and do another.

Why All This Talk of Coaching Rather Than Managing?
For years, there have been managers. Why now this change to a coach? The two main reasons
are:
- global competition
- technology
No longer can issues be passed up the ladder sometimes taking days for a decision. Decisions need to be made quicker than ever before because the consumer today is more demanding. Thanks to technology, information is now readily available to us, and there is lots of it. With all the information available today, the manager can no longer have all the answers. Whereas, in a coaching role, you are not expected to have all the answers. In a coaching role, you ask the questions and rely on your staff, who become the experts, to provide the information.
The result of global competition and the increased information is that managers now must become coaches. We found a job description of a manager with the following statement:
"controls, directs and supervises the day to day operations."
A job description of a coach would be: to lead, motivate, create a vision, and teach staff the skills needed to empower them to help make us a successful and profitable company." A real difference in the two descriptions.
You cannot manage men into battle.
You manage things; you lead people."
What happens if companies do not change? Simply, they will not survive. They will not attract the talent they need as employees no longer will conform to complying with the orders issued by managers. Today's employees are more educated and need to see the whole picture.
With more and more competition, due to global markets, companies must constantly evaluate how they are doing business. Change is going to speed up before it slows down. No longer can the manager do it all, know it all, and be it all. You need your employees to speak up and speak out! They are the ones closest to your front line and they are the ones who often have the best ideas as they are closest to your customer. So, by coaching employees rather than managing them, you end up with a more dynamic result!!
Rather than clinging to past ways, look at changing to a coaching style. Some managers have concerns about letting go. We will address these concerns in later articles.

To Manage or To Coach?
Allow people to manage
their work.
If you coach people,
people will manage the work.
By attempting to manage people
you are limiting their potential.
A manager is a title,
it does not guarantee success.
Coaching is an action,
not a title and actions result in successes!
So....Good-bye Manager, Hello Coach!

Sopir Taxi
2 bulan lalu, saat melintasi patung Bung Karno & Bung Hatta, setelah
sepanjang tol dari jakarta menuju bandara kami membicarakan berbagai
hal (mulai dari marhaen yang produksinya segitu-gitu saja, Cina yang
bawa lari kredit BI, hingga tingkah busuk politisi sekarang) dengan
seorang supir taxi berusia 60 tahun asal Garut, aku menutup
pembicaraan ketika taxi melintasi patung Bung Karno & Bung Hatta di
Sedyastmo, aku bilang "... Bapak lihat lagi itu, Bung Karno tak
pernah sibuk cari uang, urus keluarga, apalagi berunding tak sama
tinggi...keluar masuk penjara saja kerjanya hanya untuk membebaskan
bangsa supaya makmur sejahtera dan dihargai dunia...".
Terdiam dia beberapa saat..., sedikit bisa aku melihat dari kursi
penumpang, kulihat dia menyeka matanya..ternyata berlinang dia punya
airmata. Rupanya Bapak itu menangis sambil terus dia menyupiri taxinya. Dalam usianya yang 60 tahun, tentu satu hari dalam hidupnya ia pernah berbaris panjang dalam komando Sang Putra Fadjar! Ya...2 bulan lalu Bapak itu menangis. Rindu Si Bung dia rupanya...

Filosofi Kerja Jam
Alkisah, seorang pembuat jam tangan berkata kepada jam yang sedang dibuatnya.
“Hai jam,apakah kamu sangup untuk berdetak paling tidak 31.104.000 kali selama setahun? “
“Ha?” kata jam terperanjat,”Mana sanggup saya?”
“Bagaimana kalau 86.400 kali sehari?”
“86.400 kali? Dengan jarum yang ramping-ramping seperti ini?” jawab jam penuh keraguan.
“Bagaimana kalau 3.600 kali dalam satu jam ?”
“Dalam satu jam harus berdetak 3.600 kali?Banyak sekali itu” tetap saja jam ragu-ragu dengan
kemampuan dirinya.
Tukang jam itu dengan penuh kesabaran kemudian bicara kepada si jam.”Kalau begitu, sanggupkah kamu berdetak satu kali setiap detik?”
“Naaa, kalau begitu , aku sangup!” kata jam dengan penuh antusias.
Maka.selesai dibuat, jam tersebut berdetak satu kali dalam satu detik.Tanpa terasa, detik demi detik terus berlalu dan jam itu sunggu luar biasa karena ternyata dalam satu tahun penuh dia telah berdetak tanpa henti. Dan itu berarti dia telah berdetak sebanyak 31.104.000 kali.
Renungan :
Ada kalanya kita ragu-ragu dengan segala tugas pekerjaan yang begitu terasa berat. Namun sebenarnya , kalau kita sudah menjalankannya, kita ternyata mampu. Bahkan yang semula kita anggap impossible untuk dilakukan sekalipun. Jangan berkata “tidak” sebelum Anda mencobanya.
