EQ for success
GSBPA, WBTI

In the initiative period of the business administration program at the National Chengchi University in Taipei, Taiwan, human relations has been an important course of the curriculums of its Department and Graduate School of Business Administration. "It is important for a manager to own the philosophy of mangement of 'The reaching of peak management achievement through successful work performance both on good production and human relations,'" pointed out Dr. Tony Lei on his text book entitled "Modern Business Management" *1 in 1973. Dr. Lei taught "Human Relations" at the Graduate School.

The current popularlity of the "EQ for success" has been a critical emphasize and development of the importance of human relations in business.

We are pleased to quote the following feature article*2:
-----------------------------------
Increase Your Potential and EQ for Success
By Natalie Tyrrell* and Tiffany Chang

"It's been said there are three kinds of people: (1) Those who watch things happen. (2) Those who make things happen. (3) Those who wonder what happened? Don't be part of the third catergory of clueless people who wonder around aimlessly. It is not enough to breathe a sigh and figure that your learning days areover. Here you are in this world, this world that is undeniable the way it is. You can do nothing to change what happended in the past, yet you can do everything to vastly improve what lies in the future. You have the ability to build, to create, to improve yourself and your future. You can MAKE THINGS HAPPEN. Remember you have immense potential. Your future is vast and awesome. If you keep learning and improving, your destiny will bring you long term happiness, enrichment, success, love and much more. As the martial art student realized, his reward of the black belt represented the beginning - the start of a never-ending journey of discipline, work and the pursuit of an ever-higher standard. 'What is the true meaning of the diploma you are about to receive?' This is your Commencement Day. And it is only fitting to say to you, as we salute you for your accomplishment, that, truly, this is only the beginning," delivered the Commencement Speech at SMHS 2002 recently by Becky Ung, President of the School Board for San Marino Unified School District, California.

Becky is a national and international famous Speaker in California, United States; Taipei, Taiwan; and Beijing, Shanghai, Amoy, China. She has published a numerious Vidio Tapes, feature articles, and books. Her recent famous book named "What you Wish is What you Get" was published by Songan Publishing Inc. in 2001 at Taipei, Taiwan. The next one of hers, "E. Q. Unlimited," will be published by Franklin Publications at Taipei in the fall of 2002. She is an expert of E. Q. (Emotional Intelligence). Becky has been honored as an Assistant Fellow of the Culture Institution (CI) of Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI).

"I am delighted by this honor. Thank you for the appointment. I think this is the biggest title that I have ever held!" Becky sent an e-mail to Dr. Tony Lei, President of WBTI, on May 19, 2002.

"Besides what I'm already doing in my teaching goal, I'd like to continue to introduce and integrate the best of American culture and social into Chinese churches and families to help them in the assimilation process. People have to pursue, accept, and embrace all kinds of opportunities and challenges that lives have to offer. I encourage them to utilize their potential to the fullest extent. I believe awareness is a pre-requisite to a happy and successful life. I'll do my best to serve the Lord and follow His will. I'll also devote my time, talents, and resources to help others and make a difference in their lives," she spoke to the public.

"As an Assistant Fellow of the Culture Institution of Washington Business and Technology Institute, it's my precious opportunity to realize my potential of entrepreneuship to work with all these outstanding faculty members of WBTI under the encouragement and spiritual leadeship of Elaine Chao who has been honored as the Chairperson of this Institute," said Becky Ung.*3

United Effort and Wisdom of the Asian American Community for Nevada --- Asians United Means Ensigns Power
By Cheryl Moss and Tiffany Chang

It is quite an impressive article which was published on the "Chinese Daily News" recently. The author pointed out that an unfavourable habbit of the Chinese people in America is probably the "unbearable to the good things for the other people to have in the Chinese community." A great deal of need for our Chinese people is to give more a big hand to the achievements of the people like Yin Sun Kuan (pronounced in Chinese) who won the 7th times of the World Championship of Skating in the United States. With positive thinking and love in action emphasized by Washington Business and Technology Institute (WBTI) for many years, we expect the best thing that we can do is to to turn the above personal trait to the positive thinking of the Chinese "Yu wei tzer yi noi zie!" philosophy of life (If she or he can do it, I can do it also!) It is our pleasure to report the following article*1 again:
--------------------------

In this 21st Century new era and society, we need economic growth, but we need also to establish and promote creativity, fairness, and justice, service and love, educational knowledge, spirit engineering, and the art of life. The paralleled practice of both the positive thinking and love in action, through the skills with personal traits such as optimism, enthusiam, belief, intelligence, creativity, judgment, liveliness, vision, courage, desire to excel, and persistence, will help people pursue a richer, happier, and successful life.

It is a general understanding that, if we are able to excel in a particular field of professional career, we will definitely have a better chance of gaining a foodhold into society. Personal accomplishments often win the approval from society for the entire ethnic (or Asian) group. For example: (1) U. S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao's successful work performance in administrative and social accomplishment as one of the higest officials of America arising from her many years of community service and charity endeavor. (2)The late Dr. Tien Choung Lin (in Chinese), who successfully accomplished a great deal for U. C. Berkeley for many years as its famous President because of his academic acheivement and community participation. (3)Outstanding entrepreneurs and scientists who contribute to the advancement and civilization of America.

It is also important for our Asian community to understand that: Outstanding professional accomplishments enhanced with good community service is a practical and sincere way for us to integrate into American society and win the recognition by our mainstream society and American people. We are already a minority even as a whole Asian community, let alone the Chinese, Indian, Japanese, Korean, Philippines, Thai, and others. We do not have any asset left for us to fight against or to defeat each other. What strength of a voice to the mainstream for our brothers and sisters will be remained with us, if each and every of our Asian American communities to have our leaders attack each other? United we stand, divided we fall. We should support the accomplishment and status of any of our successful individual to increase our voice and influence in this country. Could we not learn something from the support and unite of African Americans that help make Colin Powell's appointment and leadership more stable as the Secretary of State? Wake up please! We Asian Americans! We need people like John Ensign and Elaine Chao, among others, for our great America and our community.

Some people are of the "tell me what you wear, tell me what kind of car you drive, tell me what cards you carry, and I'll tell you who you are" culture. What do the people we admire have in common? These individuals have faith, respect, and unabashed love. Love always transcends itself. In its purest form, love is unconditional and an appreciation. The Greeks had a saying: "People are known by the heroes they crown." Tell me whom you admire, and I will tell you who you are. Your choice of heroes reveals your personal traits.

"By the action of love itself, we are enriched. Love in action is service above self. Make service a part of your character and experience the abundant reward that comes from serving others. Let your heroes be the great servants who have given all for the betterment of others' lives. Let your candle fuel a fire that will fan out an ever-increasing circles. With these circles together we can close our eyes and envision a community that is safe, peaceful, and healthy," said Dr. Tony Lei who has been invited as the Honorary President of Xiamen Straits Foreign Language College and Great Wall College recently. Great Wall College in Chynan, China emphasizes the importance of international trade and economy, English language, information management, and business administration. Dr. Archie Chang, who earned his Doctor of Education degree in the United States of America, was many years one of the California high-ranking officer of U. S. Department of Education. He is achieved and he is the President of the College.*2

Modern Stratagem
By Tiffany Chang

The Chairrman of Chinese American Academic Association of Nevada, Dr.Tony Lei received by air mail on February 22, 1997 a book named "Modern Stratagem" *1 The book was written and sent by Professor Tu Lin. The late Tu Lin, one of the famous scholar on stratagem, had been many years Professor and Chairman of Safety Department of the Central Police Official University in Taiwan. They were also good friends for many years. Professor Tu was the Founder and Chairman od Taipei Marketing Research Association on a national basis. He was also Chairman of Board of China File and Micrographic Information Management Institute. In order to promote the collaboration of academy between both sides of China on the pacific ocean, Professor Tu was the Chairman and held the 1966 Seminar on File and Micrographic Academy of both sides of the Straits of Taiwan on November 4-11, 1996.

The book was prefaced by Dr. Ko-wang Mei, the former President of Tunghai University and now the President of Taiwan Regional Development Institute.

In the preface, Dr. Mei pointed out that: It is the person who uses strategem to face poblem and chellenge and to integrate a project or principle for processing of problem solving. Most of famous stratagems in the human history were used on politics and military. From its broad significance, in order for a person to successful both in production and human relations, he or she needs stratagem to attain his or her objectives. The Chinese idiom of "Action after taking stratagem" may show the good understanding of the above meaning.

"It is 'political strategy' when a stratagem is used in political affairs.It is 'war strategy' when a stratagem is used in military action. It is 'individual strategy' when a stratagem is used by personal affairs. It is 'business strategy' when a stratagem is used by business management. After the second half of 20 century, business management played a very important role around the world. The study of management emphasizes very much the importance of stratagem. Therefore, the world business is now full of the actions of 'Business Stratagem'," said Dr. Mei.

Dr. Mei believed that: The successful degree of a stratagem can not be depended only on individual's wisdom, knowledge,and experience. It has its team works, integrity, scientific background, and philosophic thought. Therefore, there never appears a stratagem in an emptiness. It needs deliberate planning and logic thinking. The large the area of stratagem and the deeper of the degree of a stratagem, the large and deeper the need for information collection and analysis. In the recent half of the century, it is one of the most important subject in 'The study of Administration'. In a practical and general speaking, 'stratagem' is 'decision making' in a promotional sense. In order to have a stratagem effective, efficient, and perfect, the conclusion of a stratagem should be attained through scientific collection, analysis, judgment, study of information. It is why the 'Stratagem' is an important and useful study.

Dr. Mei recommended that : The "Modern Stratagem" written by Professor Tu Lin is one of the best in the field. It can be a good reference text for persons in political affairs. It is a fine dictionary for military experts. And it can be also effectively used in business management. Finally, it is a very valuable book for an individual to use it as an electric power to brighten his or her career both in production and human relations.*2
