  • How can I cope well in Polytechnic as a new student?

    How can I cope well in Polytechnic as a new student? Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: Sophie Ong Last Updated: 31 May 2021 at 4:35:35 am Say Hello Article How-to Guide Say Hello Share with someone you care ! The environment in Polytechnic is very different compared to Secondary School. It feels entirely new, and it is normal to feel lost at times. The first year of Polytechnic is essential to build your foundation and make new friends. We have identified five ways to help you cope in Polytechnic! 1) Step Out of Your Comfort Zone 2) Be Participative 3) Choose Your Groupmates Wisely 4) Be Consistent 5) Studying Method 1) Step Out of Your Comfort Zone Entering a new school may cause anxiety , especially when you are separated from your friends that you usually hang out with. You may feel shy when you meet new people. What should I do? - Be open-minded and start a conversation with others first! Don't wait for them to approach you. You may not necessarily have to think of a reason to speak to someone; a simple question to enquire about a class topic or work can be a starting point! - Smile more and give off a friendly vibe . You will be seen as more approachable, and people will find it comfortable approaching and speaking to you. 2) Be Participative Having a good GPA is important but having a good portfolio is also essential, especially if you want to enter a University. What should I do? - Sign up for a Co-Curricular-Activity (CCA). In Polytechnic, you may choose more than one CCA. A suggestion would be to sign up for an interest group related to your course of study , as it will reflect well on your portfolio since you will have relevant experiences. - Do not hesitate to take up leadership roles such as class chairperson or even a President/Captain in your CCA. Although you may feel that these roles are distracting, they can be fun at the same time. Moreover, the potential to shape you as a relatable leader is a skillset you shouldn't miss! 3) Choose Your Group-mates Wisely The subject grade in Polytechnic does include group projects. Sometimes, it may have a heavy weightage, and you will want to do well in group projects to pull up your score. Being selective of your groupmates will ensure that you pick responsible groupmates instead of "free riders". What should I do? - Mix around with everyone in your class and talk to them. Find out their personality and people you will want to work with. - If they are your mutual, ask your friends who are close with them about how they are like. - A tip would be working and interacting with different groups of people in the first semester as you are not close to anyone yet. You may then form permanent groups in the second semester when you already know who you enjoy working with. 4) Be Consistent There may be many small quizzes and tests throughout the semester as the subject grade is split into many components. To lessen the stress that you will face, being consistent with your work is vital to ensure that it does not snowball . What should I do? - Sometimes, lectures are being held online, and it is done at your own pace. Following the timetable given to you can help prevent accumulation of work . - Ensure all assignments are completed at least two days before the submission date . In the event of technical issues when you submit your project, you still have time to seek help. - Don't feel shy to consult your lecturers if you need help. Even if they seem unapproachable, ask anyway. Your grades are essential! Otherwise, you may consult your friends. 5) Studying Method Experiment your studying methods during your first two semesters . Identify if using electronic devices such as tablets or printing out notes is effective for you. Different subjects have different studying techniques. What should I do? - If you are unable to get used to using electronic devices to study, printing your lecture and tutorial notes may be a better method for you to study instead. Highlighting may help you when revising. - For subjects that require mathematics, practicing and doing test papers will help you. For certain topics, understanding the mathematical concepts are important to assist you in answering tricky questions. - For subjects that require you to memorise concepts, picking out keywords and phrases to remember can reduce the amount of content you need to learn. Creating a relationship by categorising or grouping by similarity can also help you. Starting right is important and we hope you find our content useful!

  • Review and Edit

    Aligning expectations with the customers and relevant stakeholders is important as improvements can be made and doubts can be clarified. Here, we identified the few good practices; Review and Edit Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:43:48 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! We need to ensure the project is moving forward correctly! Aligning expectations with the customers and relevant stakeholders is important as improvements can be made and doubts can be clarified. Here, we identified the few good practices; 1) Review is done with the customer at every interval, typically every week . I will email customers about the agenda before the meeting so they can decide the duration of the meeting, or if not, discuss via email or online. 2) Using the checklist that I have created and discussed from past meetings, I will review the functions and the requirements to gather feedback. 3) Sometimes, customers may not like their initial request, and they will ask for a change. The common ones are; i) User interface (UI) such as the location of where to access functions, actions, and help buttons. Having adequate segregation of functions and help buttons allow a neater user experience. The dropdown bar can be useful if there are many functions in the program. ii) Follow as close to the requirement as the customer wants. They often have a say on the user interface while letting me handle the function myself. A quick tip is as long as I get their required process flow of the app, they are very supportive of the functions I implemented. iii) Having patience is a good trait since there are times when customers require multiple changes to the app. Tips Take a further step to clarify customers’ demands when they are not clear with their requirements. Any concerns raised can be promptly addressed, and edits can be made. Remember to add in whatever discussed into a checklist for review work later. Include timeline as well! This is to minimise the additional time taken to edit so we can concentrate on other tasks.

  • Maintenance and Repair Machineries

    Downtime is not acceptable, especially in times of urgent situations. Our responsibility is to ensure all types of machinery are well maintained to prolong their life, and ensure there is a contingency plan when they are down. Here are a few tips you should consider; Maintenance and Repair Machineries Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:50:55 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Downtime is not acceptable, especially in times of urgent situations. Our responsibility is to ensure all types of machinery are well maintained to prolong their life, and ensure there is a contingency plan when they are down. Here are a few tips you should consider; 1) Follow the maintenance routine recommended by the machine manufacturer . However, due to variation of usage, operator, and cost, maintenance routine can be affected. For example, using a cheaper oil cuts cost but may affect the machine's performance if the maintenance routine is not adjusted accordingly. 2) Provide proper training for machine usage and ensure the machine users carry out good cleaning and maintenance routine. 3) Keep in mind the duration of the repair in the event when it is required. Take note of the longest repair time when you are speaking to the manufacturer and ensure work curriculums will not be affected during the downtime. 4) Have in mind to train someone in the organization to repair minor problems on the machine . This reduces incurred cost when activating personnel from the manufacturer. Always keep a few contacts if you need to outsource such repair work. This ensures you have alternatives when other contractors are unable to meet your schedule. There may be times when the repair personnel is not experienced enough and changed items that are working fine. On top of that, they charge you manhour and component price, which you should not be paying. Hence, it is important you allow the repairman to check, diagnose, and brief you on the problem before letting them start on the work.

Selecting a course is essential in ITE and Poly as it will follow students for about 2 to 4 years before graduating.

However, what if you are uncertain which course to select? 1) Elimination 2) Interests 3) Opportunities Offered 4) Skills 5) Open House 1) Elimination List out courses which you may like and leave out those which you definitely will not consider. Steps: i) List out courses which are of your interest. You may consider courses that are in the same field of study . For example, Applied Chemistry and Biomedical Engineering are different courses but of the same field. You may click here to use the course finder to help you! ii) Eliminate one by one based on factors such as - Interest - Academic requirement - Location of the school iii) If you have a few interested courses under the same school (e.g. marketing, accounting, and tourism), you may consider a general course such as the Common Business Programme. This course allows you to have more time to socialize with seniors and find out what you would like to specialize in, and make that choice in Year 1, Semester 2. 2) Interests - What do you like to do? Is the course giving you the knowledge to do what you love? You can visit the course curriculum to see whether if the modules can help you with your ambition - For example, if you would like to have a blog shop and learn more about the industry. Perhaps a business course may be one of your choices. - If you are only interested in one of the module in the course, you should search for other courses that provide more attractive modules 3) Opportunities Offered - Opportunities offered varies among schools. Generally, students have plenty of opportunities such as Co-Curricular Activities (CCA) offered to advance their interests through competitions - Some schools may make internship compulsory and have different learning journeys - They may offer unique opportunities to enhance a student’s knowledge and add on to their portfolio - Some schools may offer programs to help you acquire an industry certificate or license that could accelerate your career. This is prominent in Engineering related courses. 4) Skills - You may consider to pick a course based on the skills you already have - You may enjoy what you are doing because you are already good at it, and this will develop an interest in your course - With your skillsets, you will have a higher chance to score a better GPA to help you further your studies - If you do not have any skills, then be prepared to learn and put in the effort as skillsets and know-how are critical when you are out working 5) Open House i) Open houses allow you to have a tour in the school and get a feel of the environment ii) Prepare a list of interested courses to help you use your time effectively during the visit iii) When you approach the booth, learn more about individual courses from seniors and teachers at the school by asking key questions like; - What kind of internship will I be getting? - Do I have the exposure to build a certain skill set or knowledge? - Can I know more about this module and its curriculum? - Will I be able to operate this machine? - Will I be able to try out this software? - What kind of Final Year Projects (FYP) opportunity does this course provide?

  • Asset Accountability (Tertiary School)

    Besides the account book, stock accountability is also vital, especially in assets management. As some of the assets may be parked under our custodian, we must ensure they are intact and functional. Here are a few tips to help you on managing assets. Asset Accountability (Tertiary School) Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:51:01 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Besides the account book, stock accountability is also vital, especially in assets management. As some of the assets may be parked under our custodian, we must ensure they are intact and functional. Here are a few tips to help you on managing assets. 1) If the item is not in use, store them where only authorized personnel can access them . This means getting a locker or have a room to keep them. 2) Have a sign-in/out book to track the movement of the item for traceability in the scenario when the item is spoiled and no one owns up. However, you need to juggle between whether this is necessary versus convenience to co-worker. For example, cheap tools like spanner, allen key, screwdrivers. 3) For items that require maintenance such as motorised components like machines, ventilators, refrigerators, robotic platforms and 3d printers. This also includes it's coupling, rubber and bearing. 4) Ensure asset can be managed and operated correctly for classroom operations . This include setting up training with proper documentation. 5) For consumable items, ensure you keep them in areas where they are not easily accessible and slowly replenish them whenever depleted. This prevents co-workers and students from over misuse these items for non-work related activities. The consumable items include; - can only be used once - wear and tear to be predicted across time - low valued items such as stationary, wipes, cables/wires The good practice is to post the inventory list online to allow good tracking of usage and quantity updates . When you are given an allocated budget to maintain these assets, consider; - replenishment in cases where the users are overusing them - scheduled maintenance and repair - unforeseen purchases You may also like Budgeting for engineering projects for school Maintenance and Repair Machineries Cross Deployment Disclaimer We did our best to provide you with thought-through content.

  • Marking Examinations (Tertiary Education)

    For first timer as a marker in the module, I will find time to mark with experienced markers to identify how to address grey areas in marking. Marking Examinations (Tertiary Education) Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:39:57 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Marking allows us to understand the student's performance and intervene promptly to help them learn better. Here, we identified the good practices in marking; 1) For first timer as a marker in the module, I will find time to mark with experienced markers to identify how to address grey areas in marking. For example, if the answer is not in the answer sheet but based on our experiences, it is logical, what should we do? This is when we will establish marking criteria to align with the module objective 2) During marking, we should always stick to the module's intention rather than personal preference and relationship with the student. This is unfair and is unprofessional as a lecturer to do so. Moreover, there will always be quality control whereby experienced markers will pick a few marked scripts to vet and question if need be. If caught and you can't explain logically, you will be removed, and your reputation will be negatively affected. 3) Depending on the school's regulation, you may hire someone or ask a junior colleague to assist you in marking if you are overwhelmed with other areas of work. You will only need to go through the papers after the marking and clarify doubts if the marker has.

The more awareness we bring in, the higher chances we can meet potential prospects. Although supporting demo activities can be tiring, it is also a good chance to hear direct customer feedback. Here, we identified what we normally do; 1) Understand clearly the demo requirement from the business development team, which include; i) Functions and requirement to demo ii) Interactions with demo participants iii) Number of robots to be deployed iv) Date, time, and number of days 2) With this understanding, allocate adequate human resources and equipment for delivery and on-site support. This includes; i) Lorries with a ramp or automated lifter for transportation of heavy robots ii) Bring strap to secure the robot, cushion styrofoam, wheel choke, fire extinguisher, tire pressure pump and other necessary tools 3) Before deployment, ensure the robot is operational as per demo requirement. 4) If robot needs to move in a route, we will plan for; i) Location of charging area ii) Assessing deployment risk in a certain area of the route iii) Assessing terrain of the route to ensure ease of maneuverability Tips Before conducting any form of demonstration, always ensure that the surroundings do not have any obstacles and holes to ensure the robot operates in a suitable environment Clear any unnecessary objects hindering the pathway or the route. Take note of the type of terrain the robot is on, shift to a smoother floor surface if necessary. Always ensure the robot is fully charged and functional, as any breakdown will not look good on you and the company.

  • Traveling Overseas (Machinery Sales)

    The purpose of our business trip is to meet with potential prospects and close sales that our agents are unable to. Traveling Overseas (Machinery Sales) Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 8 June 2021 at 4:21:20 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! The purpose of our business trip is to meet with potential prospects and close sales that our agents are unable to. Per trip of 3 to 5 days, I usually meet 1 to 5 customers, with lodging and local chauffeuring both provided by the agent. However, depending on your company, you may have to travel alone, and you must coordinate with the relevant personnel overseas. The tasks which I am supposed to complete includes; 1) Price Negotiation in which customers will ask for price reduction, and I will be ready with the lowest price to offer. Knowing how to bargain based on the local market's standard price is important to keep the profit margin higher . 2) I will conduct site recce and planning before commencing my work. I will study the site's layout to ensure they fulfill both our requirements based on their local electrical and civil engineering standards. This includes studying their land space, land stability, factory space, and location of electrical ports. 3)Technical enquiries such as; i) How to improve the efficiency of low resource consumption ii) How to maximize production iii) How to reduce utility costs for water and electricity iv) How to predict production using the given input that defines their system. I will also make use of calculations and data from past customers. 4) When traveling to meet existing customers, I will visit the factory first before heading to meet their high management. This allows me to understand the situation on the ground and craft solutions ahead of the discussion. Tips i) A well thought out itinerary will be beneficial and should reflect what you hope to accomplish during this trip. For instance, having two or three appointments confirmed well in advance and spaced comfortably throughout the day will be more productive than a hectic schedule. ii) This overseas schedule should also be flexible enough to allow for unexpected problems such as transportation delays and unresolved discussions . iii) Most importantly, show that you are there to provide solution and respect everyone you meet! iv) Note that you might feel tired after the flight , hence if possible, arrange the meeting half or one day after you touched down. This will help you feel refreshed and alert for the negotiation and discussion later on.

People dislike unplanned last-minute deployment; it's not a good image for both your company and yourself. We understood that you are overwhelmed with work, and last-minute planning may be your unwilling choice. Here are some tips you may adopt; 1) Whenever you need to host a demo, notify the relevant teams and stakeholders via a group chat message immediately . If the details are unsure, at least inform them of an expected date and time first . This will allow them to have mental preparation. 2) Always prepare a few sets of demo requirements for your product. Whenever you need a demo, pull them out and send them to the relevant stakeholders. 3) Strictly give yourself 5 minutes to identify the most difficult and time-consuming preparation for the demo and inform relevant stakeholders to get it done quickly. Then, set the alarm or notification a few days later to clarify if the job has been carried out as planned. 4) If you need to book a plane ticket for your customer, get it done quickly as; i) you might not be able to get the flight ticket for the time and date ii) when no information is given, your customer may be worried and will decide not to come when the date is near iii) you may be seen as unconcern about the demo 5) A few key information are useful to inform the relevant teams when preparing, and they are; i) venue and if a security clearance is required ii) names of the people who are participating when a security clearance is required iii) what does the customer intend to see iv) what and how do you intend to show the customer v) do you need the management to be there to speak to the customer? vi) if you need a photography or videography team to take pictures and videos for marketing materials vii) how much manpower do you need? viii) what kind of power supply is required? Important when you are setting up outdoor ix) do you have any safety measures in place? Such as fire extinguishers, a safe distance from the machine, protective gear, and more. 6) When the relevant teams are unable to support you with the demo , you need to have a contingency plan . For example; i) Can you postpone the demo with the prospect? ii) Can you showcase the product as static and identify key features verbally? iii) Can you find support from other departments? iv) Speak to your management if the relevant teams are unwilling to cooperate Please note that these plans is dependent on how urgent your issue is. Tips Few days before the demo, always inform and remind everyone including the prospect of this event Do not attempt to handle everything alone, you need to delegate to those who are supposedly responsible As much as you need to consider limitation from the supporting departments , you also need to be firm with your decision . Your role is important as you are bringing business into the company.

Here are some tips you can consider; Manpower Allocation Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:50:36 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Am I over or under allocating manpower? This is the question many managers and managing executives faced. Here are some tips you can consider; 1) Identify what is the minimum manpower required for your core daily task. Are they affected by season, project and location? Different season of the year may have varying workloads. 2) Have a chart showing a list of names, shifts, availability and schedules to clearly visualize and plan your manpower is important. 3) When you have insufficient manpower to spare, set priorities on which area should best be allocated with more support. This gives you a good reason to explain to management your decision making when other less priortised areas are affected. 4) Speak to different stakeholders who will be needing your manpower. Always understand from them what are the upcoming work, projects or events and if they need people to support. Setting up a group chat is convenient for such, especially for "last-minute" requests. 5) If everything is urgent, you need to question the stakeholder and the situation enough to validate before you are forced to accept allocating your manpower. Seek clarification if they can postpone their request. 6) If the tasks you support require different skillsets, it is important to train more people with various skills to ensure they can be allocated to more areas whenever needed. 7) Have a contingency plan when people are taking urgent and medical leaves . This taps on your ability to judge if the task requires replacement or to get someone to do overtime. Priority is key! When you question, understand, deconstruct the situation and set priority , you can make better judgment!

    If a patient is nil-by-mouth (unable to swallow food adequately), specialised feeding techniques must be administered, either through tube feeding or given via IV nutrition. Patient's nutrition care Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:45:02 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! Ensure patients have proper nutrition intake to enhance their recovery. Dependent on the patient's status and condition; 1) If a patient is nil-by-mouth (unable to swallow food adequately), specialised feeding techniques must be administered, either through tube feeding or given via IV nutrition. 2) If a patient is awake and can swallow food but is unable to use hands, we will have to serve them regular food. It is always good to wait for the patient to finish chewing before feeding the next spoon. Clear their food once they have finished consuming. 3) If a patient cannot chew food, we will modify their food texture and serve them soft food such as porridge, mash potatoes, and yogurt. We also use thickeners as specified by doctors in their drinks depending on their ability to swallow. 4) Afterwards, we have to record and monitor each patient's food and fluid intake into the system. This includes ½ vegetable, ½ soup, ¾ rice. Tips Never neglect and be extra aware of each patient's dietary needs , contraindications, and to assist them accordingly. Any negligence can have a detrimental effect. Many patients dislike the taste of thickeners and want us to put less into their food, but nurses will still have to follow instructions and set the right amount of thickener to ensure compliance. Definitions Thickeners Used in liquid foods/drinks, it makes the food a thicker consistency that is less likely to cause aspiration (problems in swallowing) and is highly recommended for patients who can no longer swallow normal food safely. Because thickened liquids travel down the throat at a slower pace, making it easier to control. Therefore the liquid won't go down to the lungs and cause aspiration, coughing, choking, and problems. Contraindications To withhold certain treatment and medication as it may be deemed harmful to the patient.

We have identified seven types of consumers to help you with your business plan! 7 types of consumer mindset Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: JP Tan Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:59:07 am Say Hello Article Definition Say Hello Share with someone you care ! They kept saying, know your target audience! But how?? We have identified seven types of consumers to help you with your business plan! 1) Purchase by impulse 2) Sense of urgency 3) Influence by people 4) Destress after purchase 5) Requiring its function 6) Driven by doing good 7) Mentality of comparison 1) Purchase by impulse - I have been thinking of buying for a very long time, and I finally bought it! This trigger is “Hidden Impulse purchase ,” where an attractive offer or a special scenario causes you to have a strong emotion to make such a purchase. - Driven by curiosity and belief, such consumers buy to satisfy their needs to know more . We call this the “Curiosity Impulse purchase ”. Some example ad messages are; - Want to achieve financial freedom at the age of 30? Sign up now! - Unpack this to receive a secret prize! 2) Sense of urgency - Stuck between “lack of time” and “what is the best solution out there”. They are in a state of uncertainty. Creating the mentality that their solution is going to be unavailable soon will accerlerate their purchase decisions. We call this “Urgent purchase due to uncertainty ” - Driven by “I like this very much” versus “should I buy” . Discount is used to increase consumers’ chances of having the thought that “I should buy because that’s a steal!” . We call this the “Cheap purchase urgency ”. Some example ad messages are; - While Stock Last - Purchase after purchase - Flash Sales. - Driven by “Rarity ”, this is used to close sales with a medium to high price. Taglines like Limited Edition, 100 pieces in this world. Selling once every five years.

We call this “Hipster purchase ”. 4) Destress after purchase - Sense of happiness after buying things. Especially coming back from a huge sales or purchase something that you long wanted. We call this “Happiness after purchase ” - "Relief after purchase" . Imagine when someone kept asking you to get something done, and you kept forgetting. When the moment you have done it, you felt relieved because the nag is finally over. Such people are usually under pressure regularly, and once they have done it, they felt happy. - An example ad message can be; “Is your wife nagging again? Buy this rice cooker now at 50% discount!” . 5) Requiring its function - I need its function ; therefore, I bought it. We call this “Purchasing with needs ”. - I not sure if it works, but I have got no choice but to buy and test it. We call this “Purchasing partial solution ”. - I predict someone or myself will use it in the future, either to use it to do tasks or to resell for higher value; therefore I bought it. We call this “Purchase in advance ”. - Someone may need it, but because this is now on discount or conveniently available , I shall buy it first. We call this “Purchase cheap in advance ”. - I bought it so that this person will also buy from me . They will also introduce their friends to buy from me. The action of buying for and from somebody is a “function of use ” itself. - This behavior may be prominent in sales person when they treat you a drink in hopes that you buy from them. We call this “Purchase with agenda ”. 6) Driven by doing good - A kind act by buying something from the less fortunate . We call this “Kindness purchase ”. - I support the seller. I support my idol. I support my favorite brand. I have to do this for disaster-related causes. We call this “Support purchase ”. - God has given me all of these; I must do my best to give back to god.

  • Protocol to react to customers

    A systematic way of approaching customer concerns is essential, especially when the number of customers is overwhelming. Protocol to react to customers Brought to you by: WE Development Content written by: WE Development Last Updated: 9 June 2021 at 2:49:14 am Say Hello Article Job Process Say Hello Share with someone you care ! A systematic way of approaching customer concerns is essential, especially when the number of customers is overwhelming. The mode of communication varies differently based on industry. This includes email, phone calls, actual site visits, face-to-face services, and more. However, a similar trend is identified and explained below; Level 1 Level 1 customer service provides an immediate or short-notice response . The purpose here is to understand the customer's concerns, provide simple guidance, retrieve data and information, and execute routine tasks. This level of service is systematic and is dependable on how well the service provider on-the-ground sticks to it. Depending on the company's budget, most of these services are replaced by automated bots to reduce variability, human error and cut costs. Level 2 Level 2 customer service provides advance support that requires some level of thinking and decision-making to resolve slightly complex problems . These roles are usually managerial or otherwise senior roles with good technical and corporate knowledge to handle responses effectively. Level 3 Level 3 customer service provides highly customised solutions to address the customer's concerns. These people usually hold high authority in decision-making as they are usually the last line of customer service. Depending on the industry and seriousness of the situation, level 3 individuals have the power to act out of the company policies to resolve the problem. Level 4 Level 4 customer service requires more than one higher management and decision-makers to discuss and plan an extremely customised complex solution. This will require the customer to wait while the team finds ways to resolve the issue. When the problem comes to this stage, it is often related to a dire situation such as; death, substantial monetary loss, and potential tarnishing of the company's reputation. Additional Tips For software and technical issues , it is always essential to guide the customer to have the problems be replicated to help make the troubleshooting easier. For people-relationship issues , it is always essential to clarify if the solution is reasonably beneficial to both the customer and our company . Proper protocols and policies must be in place to help decision-makers decide. For example, whether to refund, replace, or pay. For a mixture of both software and people issues, it is important to reasonably understand the technical issues first and use them to explain and negotiate logically to the customer. Proper protocols and policies must be in place to help decision-makers decide. If the situation is one of its kind and there are no policies in place, careful reasoning and negotiation must be done to secure the customer and the company's benefit. If you need to take time, let the customer know when is the next best time to get back to them.

You are assigned a laptop for a reason! To handle all these admin related tasks! Here is a list of admin tasks you will need to do and the good practices associated with it; 1) Email We will need to reply to the customer via email and we need to check them almost everyday. A few good practice to lighten your workload are; i) "cc" colleagues responsible for handling the customer's request. Otherwise, connect with the relevant team and have them contact the customer. The best answer has to come from the person with the best knowledge. Don't attempt to handle everything yourself. ii) If you think that an email cannot resolve the customer's enquiries, request to voice or web call them . A 15 min call may be much more efficient than multiple emails that result in no solution. 2) Be concerned about our machine's certification renewal date Keep an update on when will be the certification renewal date. A few common certifications may be ISO, CE, NSF, and more. Depending on the company's direction, the seriousness of not renewing these certifications on time may prevent you from shipping your products to key markets like Europe and USA. A good practice can be; i) Whether this is your responsibility or not, it is essential to inform the relevant management or department to educate them on the seriousness ii) Always keep track of your certificate's date of expiry to keep you updated whenever a shipment is concerned 3) Security Clearance Depending on your company, you may require the visitors to have their names cleared before entering your premises. If you have a specialised admin staff to handle this, pass the details to this person. A good practice is to recheck with this admin staff if the clearance was successful . Do this 1 or 2 days before the visit. 4) Letter of invitation If your agent or customer has to visit you locally, they will need to apply for a VISA, and a letter of invitation will be required. A good practice is to have a template ready so that you can fill in their names and particulars for submission. You will need to clarify those who you are unclear of and never allow anyone who is not supposed to visit to be cleared under your name. You will be liable if anything happens. 5) Claims When we travel, purchase items, and book lodgings, we will usually pay in advance and claim afterward. However, this depends on your company culture. Some may require you to withdraw advance cash before the travel and return the leftover afterward. A good practice is to ask for e-receipt so you can easily access them via email . If you have a physical receipt, keep them safe! Again, if you have an admin staff responsible for handling these claims for you, pass it to them. Your time should focus on the more important issues. Tip i) If there is someone whom you can assigned your task to, always delegate and give instructions clearly. This will prevent any form of conflicts. ii) Maintaining a good relationship with these important people can also lighten your workload whenever you need their help!
