My first Corporate Account - Ambarella

It cames without second thought, on last Friday, when aware of Fermi's help needed message, I sent him a text message and we talk over the phone for 5 minutes and set the Sunday breakfast meeting at Sherrton.
Friday afternoon, I work out a proposal for Ambarella, yes, without any cure or decent document, just from the registrtion of forumworksasia.com , I am so excited to share it and incorporated into the proposal. yes, it's a proposal consist with " Executive Team building - Forum style " and " Sounding Board guest " before " Conductiong Executive coaching project ", to leverage what I prepare, I revise a few slides and make it a fund rasining proposal with David Du, who I will see this morning.
Saturday before the Quarter Business Review session, I browse Ameralla news and accidentally DW the S-1 file, an IPO process in the States if you wish to list in NY Stock market, it reveal in detail the company - I check the business trend part and risk factor part with decent manner on Saturday night, this is for a basic preparation before seeing Fermi.. and I do see the need from Fermi and his company, not only in HR or Leadership developing side, but a strategic development side.. I know I can do more than before, with confidence, we conduct a 90 minutes conversation. and here is the finding:
1. Corporate project will be better for Fermi as they will soon be listed in US.
2. Do it from Taiwan and China first, its difficult to handle executive team in the States - a racial discrimination issue - he share with me how CFO sacrifised months ago.
3. Work with Nick - his best friend for 40 years and with the assistat from HR head.
4. Think what FRORUM experience can be converted and transform to his team
5. Issues:
- our people are smart.
- we grow them to managers' position without leadership development
- vicious competition for higher position is taking place
- we are not happy with our client, our technology should be utilize - or we should develop our own product - a better than APPLE product
- funding team in bonding well - especially been through difficulty togerher, what Fourm value can bring further?
- Outplacement might be an option, how to do it right?
- your variety backgroud is what we need
- Sep. is good to fit in our program.
I should do it right this time.
buying " First 90 days " at eslite book- a great Executive Coaching Guild for the newly on board or promoted, as it provide a structure and mechanism, I can easily fill in the content with my rich experience, this is a great finding.
Spending day with Sound, we play ping pong after my meeting with Fermi, and then ate deep fried rib rice for lunch. go to esltie and kingstone book store - buying what we need , reading at starbucks before the movie " Transformer 3 - Dark side of the moon " a great day.
