What is presently known as the pioneering and trusted local mobile phone brand
in the Philippines has a humble beginning which can be traced in 2007. Back
then, Mr. David Lim played the part of a modern-day David when he dared to
battle established international giants in the mobile phone industry with his
introduction of the first Filipino mobile phone brand – MyPhone.
Company History
Solid Group Inc., incorporated as United Paracale Mining Co. on October 9, 1933
and renamed to its current name in June 1996, is the company behind the
MyPhone brand.
In 2005, the father of Solid Group's CEO, David Lim owned a mobile phone
manufacturer which makes phones branded as "Amoy Solid". His father tasked
his younger brother Jason to help sell the product due to being good in working
with electronic gadgets in the Lim family. According to David, the Amoy Solid
won't make much sales in the Philippines and remarked that “Just from the way it
(the brand) sounds, nobody wanted it”. He however took note of the phones' dual
sim feature and suggested to rename the brand. Amoy Solid is rebranded as My|
Phone.
Solid Group applied for the registration of the MyPhone brand with the
Intellectual Property Office (IPO) on June 25, 2007. The brand was first
introduced to the market by Solid Group in September 2007. MyPhone became
the first mobile phone brand in the country to have a dual active SIM feature. The
MyPhone brand grew into one of the primary part of Solid Group, accounting
about half of the company's revenue as of 2011.

Every company has their so-called "tricks" for keeping employees pleased and
driven. The key is creating a place where you can keep your workers
comfortable, inspired and determined to help your business meet its goals. It is
then when you can say you have created and produced the type of success
that's hard to dispute.
A Comfortable Salary— Pays all of their employees pretty well, even for those
working at the retail level. This helps keep employees focused on their work,
instead of worrying about when their next paycheck will arrive.
Benefits— All employees receive benefit packages. This also helps workers
remain focused on the task at hand.
Encouragement—inspires employees to be unique and think differently. This
helps employees feel more comfortable in their own skin, therefore increasing
their comfort and production levels at the office.
Work Environment—Collaboration and innovation is key. Employees have the
freedom to work alone or with others, without feeling nitpicked by upper
management.
Core Values—Majority of Apple employees believe they are contributing to a
higher purpose, meaning that they are doing “something beyond themselves” or
“helping make a difference” in the world.
Development Programs—Employees are encouraged to improve their abilities
and succeed. Therefore, they provides multiple educational and developmental
programs for all of their workers.
There are specific strategies that help individuals get the most out of teamwork,
all contributing to the success of the team.
Rather than assuming team members know the desired result, make sure
specific goals are clearly articulated. Using an annual strategic plan, monthly and
project plans, you can ensure energies and efforts are working in the right
direction.
Embrace change.
The nature of teamwork is that your job will constantly change. You will probably
be a member of many teams, encompassing many different personalities and
working styles. You need the flexibility to adapt to different situations.
Communicate well.
Be aware of the 55-38-7 equation. Fifty-five percent of what others gain from
your presentation comes from non-verbal communication such as eye contact,
hand gestures and body language. Thirty-eight percent comes from the sound or
tone of your voice. Just 7 percent of the message received is based on the
content of what you're saying. Keep communications organized and documented.
Use software such as Outlook, Lotus Notes or GroupWise to their maximum.
Team meetings are a vital element in any organization. Improve the productivity
of meetings by developing your meeting skills such as proper planning and
communicating objectives well in advance.
Commit to learning.
You will be a better team member if you have skills relevant to your job role. This
means you have to be continually learning, whether it's through continuing
education, training programs or reading. By learning how to communicate or
manage more effectively, you can work more effectively in teams.
As you move from team to team, your role will change. Depending on the
dynamics of the individuals in a team, you could be a leader in one team and a
follower in another. No one individual is always the boss in a team environment.
Leaders who can't follow, and followers who are unable to lead, will have limited
value in teams.
Forget the old ideas of winning and losing. Just because one group wins, doesn't
mean the other group has to lose. Use the creativity of the group to develop
situations where you can win because someone else wins.
Peer-to-Peer Recognition
In a peer-to-peer recognition system, managers as well as other co-workers are
all empowered to recognize and reward the contributions of their colleagues.
Some of the most common forms of peer recognition are:
Verbal Praise
Verbal praise is perhaps the oldest, and longest-standing form of peer-to-peer
recognition in the workplace. Verbal praise is given by colleagues, generally in an
ad-hoc fashion, in recognition of a staff member's valuable contribution.
Microbonuses
Microbonuses provide several unique benefits. Like spot bonuses, staff
recognition in the form of microbonuses can be given in the very moment that a
valuable contribution is made by an employee. Employee recognition given in the
moment has the greatest potential for impact, because the action is rewarded
almost immediately, when it is top-of-mind.
