This blog is a chronicle of my ‘calculated’ leap of fate, from the major business league into the minor business league. Posts here are my notes on people (HRM) and business management.<br /><br />It was a budding career, although I must say that I have already reached the peak of my career, and moving a step more on the corporate ladder would mean buying shares from the company. The pay and the perks were among the best in the industry for a senior executive or manager of a multi-national company. The early retirement package is equally generous. People have asked why? In spite of the best wishes and lucks from peers and staffs, there were disagreements from others. Some of those are actually coming from my siblings and friends. I can’t blame them. I simply had it. I am done with my corporate life. I’m done with corporate politics and kissing asses. It’s about time that I venture on my own.<br /><br />As I look back, it’s more than a year now, I see nor feel no regrets at all. I have not yet equaled what I used to earn (i.e., my monthly salary before), but I am happy and contented. Besides, I have consultancy contracts and projects in the pipeline which when finally pushed through will surely triple my net income in the coming months. Oh, by the way, I still act as a private management consultant to my former CEO –independently, so there are no corporate *BS.*<br /><br />I will be sharing what I have learned in my 15-year sojourned in the corporate world, including my ‘ups and downs’ in my new venture –managing and owning my own business. I invite you to learn with me here. Reason with me, and see what we can learn from each other.<br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Before you leave, kindly leave me a comment or <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/HrmBusiness" rel="nofollow">subscribe for updates</a> through your favorite <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/HrmBusiness" rel="nofollow">reader</a> or <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=1575069&amp;loc=en_US" rel="nofollow">via email</a>.
