Regis Cebu Leadership Call to Arms by Leader Ivy Eleanor Ko- My Liquid Gold journey


To Professor Jorge, and leader classmates, Fellow Parents and Soon to be parents. , Good Morning

Have you ever heard of the Milk Code? 

Yes, there is a Philippine law on milk. Breast milk in particular. The Milk Code or Executive Order 51, signed by then president Corazon Aquino was implemented in 1986 (the first in asia), is the law that protects and promotes breastfeeding in the Philippines. It regulates the industry of formula milk and other milk products that there should be no form of advertising or promotion of milk formula to the public and medical authorities are expected to play a part in the promotion of exclusive breastfeeding in the country. 

According to the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef), the Philippines is one of the 37 countries that fully implemented this milk code, Ironically, after almost 29 years, surveys show that Filipino mothers have yet to fully grasp the benefits of feeding their infants exclusively with their breast milk. Only 34% of infants under 6 months are breastfed. Most mothers still opt to use milk formulas for various reasons such as alleged inability to produce breast milk and time constraints. Although an improvement from 2011's 27%, these findings still put the country with lowest percentage of breastfed babies.

To Professor Jorge, and leader classmates, Fellow Parents and Soon to be parents. , Good Afternoon 

Have you ever heard of the Milk Code? 

Yes, there is a Philippine law on milk. Breast milk in particular. The Milk Code or Executive Order 51, signed by then president Corazon Aquino was implemented in 1986 (the first in asia), is the law that protects and promotes breastfeeding in the Philippines. It regulates the industry of formula milk and other milk products that there should be no form of advertising or promotion of milk formula to the public and medical authorities are expected to play a part in the promotion of exclusive breastfeeding in the country. 

According to the United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef), the Philippines is one of the 37 countries that fully implemented this milk code, Ironically, after almost 29 years, surveys show that Filipino mothers have yet to fully grasp the benefits of feeding their infants exclusively with their breast milk. Only 34% of infants under 6 months are breastfed. Most mothers opt to use milk formulas for various reasons such as alleged inability to produce breast milk and time constraints. Although an improvement from 2011's 27%, these findings still put the country with lowest percentage of breastfed babies.

We have very weak implementation, due to the strength these formula milk companies over the governing authorities and medical practitioners. Sad to say, a lot of medical practicioners are still staunch supporters of formula milks, and this is a very sad reality why breastfeeding in the country not garnered strength.  Advertisements of breast milk substitutes in the Philippines amounted to more than $100 million in 2006. These ads often give misinformed claims and false promises regarding milk formulas at the expense of the child's health.  According to Dr Anthony Calibo of the Family Health Office of DOH, only a few milk companies abide by the Milk Code but the violations often go unreported due to lack of awareness. LACK OF AWARENESS???? That EMPHASIZES the is the strength of marketing and advertising of these heavily funded formula milk companies, and the PATHETIC and the INDIFFERENT  attempts of the regulatory agencies in the country to put this effort into reality.



BUT THERE IS SOMETHING WE CAN DO. A lot of civic organizations have stood up and formed support groups to create awareness to women. I was lucky that I got pregnant during a time when breastfeeding had made a comeback with a lot of support groups all around Cebu – be it in social media, research topics, or even well informed OB Gyne, Pediatrician and hospitals.  While I was into my pregnancy, I was introduced into the LATCH advocate group, and attended their meetings and free seminars that before I gave birth, I already hyped myself that I will be exclusively breastfeeding my baby at a minimum of 1 year. DOH now has the Unang Yakap program, whereby baby is immediately placed on your chest as soon as he comes out to start his breastfeeding. That first hour of sucking was one of the most precious memories for me. YES! I'M A MOM! You tend to forget all the pains and tiredness you have gone thru the past 9 months seeing your  baby greedily sucking for that first meal of Colostrum. 

For those that are not familiar, Colostrum is the first secretion from the mammary glands after giving birth, rich in antibodies should be baby's first meal ever. This special milk is yellow to orange in color and thick and sticky. It is low in fat, and high in carbohydrates, protein, and antibodies to help keep your baby healthy by destroy disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Colostrum has an especially important role to play in the baby's gastrointestinal tract. It seals the holes by "painting" the gastrointestinal tract with a barrier which mostly prevents foreign substances from penetrating and possibly sensitizing a baby to foods the mother has eaten. The colostrum gradually changes to mature milk during the first two weeks after birth. During this transition, the concentrations of the antibodies in your milk decrease, but your milk volume greatly increases. Not even water should be given, because breastmilk, during those very important first 6 months of life, is perfect. After six months, you can start solid food but the important point is that breastfeeding itself needs to be continued, if the mother is able to. 

In my 18 months journey with breastfeeding, I could really see the wonders of this liquid gold. Aside from the economical savings it generates, I can see my baby is generally healthy, rarely prone to common cough and colds, very easy to manage and listens to mommy.  Breastfeeding is not about the size of the mammary glands, but the passion and determination of the mother to produce and to feed. Of course, mom has to eat healthy, drink water, rest as you are sharing your food to your infant. Though some women ultimately are not able to breastfeed, many who think they cannot actually are able to breastfeed. There are several lactation groups that provide support to women learning to breastfeed.  For those who are not able to breastfeed, milk banks or donor milk may be an alternative.

 In fact, I was able to help one baby named Sam, whose mom died while giving birth, the baby a lot of complications that he had to stay in the hospital for 5 months, and for him to survive, he should be fed with breastmilk. His aunt, who is luckily in the medical field, was able to ask help from mothers who had extra breastmilk to spare. You would imagine his aunt bringing a cooler all around Cebu everyday in case she would receive milk from donors. I am very proud to say Klive has been sharing his milk with baby Sam until he turned one, and Sam today is a healthy 18 month baby boy, thru the courtesy of the various mommies in Cebu who has helped him since day 1.  

My advocacy has always been share, pay it forward. The Lord has been very good to me, and my best way to give praise and gratitude is to share it to those in need. That is why I am in front of you leaders today. What is important is to properly educate those directly involved in a child's life on the benefits of breastfeeding early on. All over the Philippines, we have LATCH, Breastfeeding Philippines, La Leche League (Philippines), etc. Aside from that, you can draw support from your officemates, your family, your friends. Myself. Believe me, the help will come, once you want to do it for yourself. And fellow leaders, I am offering myself, if in case you know anyone who needs breastfeeding assistance, I am at their service. You know how to contact me. I will be very happy to help and share my notes, as these have been in service for 18 months and counting…. 

Thank You and good afternoon.

Dear Prof Jorge,
Good evening! How are you? I hope everything is well . I am sending you this Advocacy speech of mine, I hope you find it interesting.

Cheers!

CEBU REGIS LEADERSHIP
Call to ARMS - My Advocacy
Leader Kerwin Mark L. Gubantes, MD

Ladies and Gentlemen, friends, friends of Mother Earth, good Morning! It is with great concern that I am before you today. As you could see around you and witness firsthand the destruction Mankind has brought upon our Home Planet. Greenhouse gases polluting the atmosphere and the air that we breath, increasing carbon dioxide levels from every source imaginable is elevating the temperature of our planet. This phenomenon leads to Melting of the Ice Shelves and consequently leads to rising sea levels and warming of the waters. Furthermore there are already signs of bleaching and destruction of the coral reefs documented in many parts of the planet such that there is already disruption of the Marine ecosystem and thus depletion of the food supply chain. The changing weather patterns, stronger typhoons and Hurricanes, longer droughts in many parts of the world as well as the rise of many deadly diseases can all be traced to the wanton destruction of Mother Earth. When is it going to stop? When do we start to realize what we have done? What are we going to do about it?

Maybe we could start by looking inwards first, our very lives, how we conduct our day to day activities. Are we conserving energy? How can we lessen our carbon footprint? Maybe instead of cutting trees, we should start Planting again. We could start using energy efficient devices to reduce our need for power. Let us shift our focus on Renewable sources of energy like Solar, Geothermal, Wind and Hydroelectric to generate power to supply our needs. These sources will significantly cut the need for fossil fuels like coal which is widely used today to generate electricity.

Spirituality in Ignatian Leadership – "What lack I yet?"
(By Melchor Castro Daclan)

As Ingnatian Leaders, we will resist the temptation to draw attention to ourselves and, instead, strive for a far greater honor: to become humble, authentic leaders guided by the Spirit of God in Heaven and on earth.

In the late 18th century, Catherine the Great of Russia announced she would tour the southern part of her empire, accompanied by several foreign ambassadors. The governor of the area, Grigory Potemkin, desperately wanted to impress these visitors. And so he went to remarkable lengths to showcase the country's accomplishments.

For part of the journey, Catherine floated down the Dnieper River, proudly pointing out to the ambassadors the thriving hamlets along the shore, filled with industrious and happy townspeople. There was only one problem: it was all for show. It is said that Potemkin had assembled pasteboard facades of shops and homes. He had even positioned busy-looking peasants to create the impression of a prosperous economy. Once the party disappeared around the bend of the river, Potemkin's men packed up the fake village and rushed it downstream in preparation for Catherine's next pass.

I'll be talking about security for today and how it impacts our daily lives. You might be asking if it is indeed my advocacy, it is. I've been helping friends out whose business operations have outgrown their respective administrative services, I provide a sort of a bridge so that their security could cope up with their operational requirements.
So what is security? The dictionary says it is freedom from fear and anxiety, others say it is a state of being protected. How about you? How do you define it? What do you know about security? Is security the guy who brings out the umbrella as you leave your office lobby under a torrential rain? Is it the one who opens your car door and greets you in the morning? Or the perennial bag inspection by someone who doesn't even know what the crap he or she is looking for?
Sadly that is how we view security, while business owners view of security can be explained by a story wherein the owner of a multinational company met all his security executives. He was asking them how to improve their security, a lot of the guys in the front were asking for more cctv cameras, others more biometrics, some more guards. As the owner was pacing the aisle back and forth a young security manager at the back was whispering to his seatmate saying, " you know we could improve security without actually spending". The boss suddenly blurted, "who's that bright boy at the back?"
That is because we view security as a cost not as a system or a process. We do not realize that it is as important as your finance, logistics, operations and HR departments. If one will take a look closely we can see that security measures are present in all departments. We do investigations for potential hires and promotable individuals, we create SOP's for plant operations to ensure security, we organize committees to evaluate procurement processes and prevent pilferage and graft. We conduct audit for our finances. These are all security measures designed to prevent loss, protect the assets and mitigate risks.
In our personal lives technology has become so ingrained in our daily fabric that it is unthinkable to exist without them. Gadgets have become an extension of ourselves and our link to society. The sad part is, this is the place where we are most vulnerable. Cyber security is not only for our workplaces, it is for us. The threat of viruses corrupting our files, malwares and hackers trespassing into our devices are only some of the cyber threats that are real. We could become victims of social engineering and fall prey to identity thieves. It is in this line that we should practice good security habits. Do install legit OS to avail of patches that addresses bugs and glitches.  Protect and regularly change your passwords, seek additional protection like firewalls and anti-viruses, back up and encrypt your files and secure your immediate area before leaving.
But were you convinced? Probably not… why? Because it is not personal. People have an inexplicable desire to be burned before they learn. It is when we're bitten that we become twice as shy. Let's make it personal then…

Call To Arms Speech




Today I would like to share with you my passion: teaching people how to raise children of character.  Whenever I ask people what they value most in their lives, many would answer their family and more specifically, their children. When I ask them what they would want their children to become, most would mention successful businessman, good doctor, lawyer, and other professionals.

But what really is the most important thing that we desire for our children? I believe that it is to raise good and responsible future adults who will contribute positively to our society. In short, raising children of character.

Raising children of character is not easy. It demands time and attention. Let's be realistic. Many people are dual wage earners or have expanded work hours. Some are single parents or have a spouse working in another city or country. The pressures brought about by the influence of social media and internet also contribute to the challenges that many parents are facing today.

Parenting is one of the most difficult jobs there is and frankly, there is no training for this type of job. However, parents are the first and most important character educators of their children.  So today, I will share 3 important tips for raising children of character.

Cebu Regis Leadership Call to Arms speech by Leader Genevieve R. Ramos

Cebu Regis Call to arm Speech by: Leader Genevieve R. Ramos



GIVING
By: Genevieve Ramos
I was astounded the first time I read the article about the recent news of Mark Zuckerberg with his wife Priscilla who donated 99% percent of his Facebook share to a foundation for a cause, after his wife gave birth to their first born child. I was truly amazed and awe-stricken from thinking, how this young man, despite his age was able to let go of this amount of wealth knowing, that he still has a long journey on his lifetime.  I keep wondering and asking myself, what could be his motivation? What was inside his heart that moved him to do such a great and heroic act? As I read his letter to his newly born daughter, I came across this message on the second to the last paragraph, which struck me most and I quote "And we can only focus on serving this community and this mission because we are surrounded by loving family, supportive friends and amazing colleagues. We hope you will have such deep and inspiring relationship in your life too."   Such is a powerful phrase for me my dear classmates, doing great act such as what Zuckerberg showed us and with what we have discussed in class for the past two sessions, and the series of assignments we had on understanding and knowing ourselves better, is such a connection, a connection that truly emancipates our focus on serving others, which begins when you are filled with the love within yourself, your family and the people surrounding you.
This I think is the essence of this class from the very beginning, from defining moments, the movie synopsis with the JCampbell monomyth, and the enneagram are powerful tools that allow us to discover and know better ourselves. By revealing the dark moments we may have in our lives, we are letting go of the past wounds and start to rekindle the love in our hearts, by discovering the hero within us in order to appreciate life better, and by discovering ourselves with our strengths and weaknesses to harness ourselves to become great. These I believe are the fundamentals in building our own self, able to discover the goodness in our hearts, knowing and accepting our imperfections, only then that we can cheerfully serve others. Perhaps, not as much as what Zuckeberg did but in our own little way we are able to take part.
If I may challenge you my dear classmates, that as we finish this course, we must be able to build better self-awareness, be able to build stronger relationship, to our family, our spouses our children, our colleagues and to the rest of the people around us, so that we may be able to discover what is supreme in us that we can give back to the world and what little things we have that we can share.
As for me, I already plan to fix my relationship with my eldest daughter so I can rebuild and strengthen the relationship with her again while it is not too late. Our family is not perfect but I will try my very best by putting extra efforts in building, enhancing, and deepening relationships with my husband and with my other 3 kids.  As such I will be able to improve my weaknesses such as being emotionally detached, and a less intimate person.
It's been my passion to help others ever since, and I would like to attribute this to my being type 2 personality.  We have been extending financial support to our less privileged relatives for their education. We also plan to sponsor scholars beyond our family, hopefully next year to the foundation and the orphanage we regularly visited.
Lastly I just want to share my dream of putting up our own foundation with the primary goal to sponsor less fortunate children to go to school because I believed that education could make a difference not only on their lives but also in the society. Likewise, I will also instill the value of reading early on, to this children so that they will grow in love for reading, for in reading deepens and widens wisdom..
So what's yours..?

MM Leadership Call to Arms Speech by Alex Tan

Why Nestle? 

(Current situation of the company.Competition, Financial status and talents being poached by other companies)

Ive always feared change, it's always a frightening experience. Not all can adopt to change. But not all changes are bad, sometimes the changes we experience are the ones that bring meaning to our lives. That is why you are all here. We are in need of people that are up for a challenge. And shall contribute to the growth of this Company.

Most companies are built to improve but we in Nestle, we pride ourselves for being masters of innovation and creativity. We are not like Apple or Google, not even a pharma company that has lots of financial backing, nor a telecom company that never seems to run out of funds. But what we have here is development and enrichment of one's life. I

Like in Buddhism, self awareness is the key to conquer fear and weaknesses, so be aware, ask your selves, is this my purpose, look in to your heart and see what you are passionate about.
My mentor told me: "Those who do not grow, dies." So we promote growth not just for our company but for our people's personal growth as well.

In Nestle, Don't be afraid to fail, But instead innovative) learn so that you may put in your hands your own success.

So how do we do it? I will share to you our "secret" framework of success. 

> We Empower our employees, We toss our employees to the deep end of the pool, allowing them to swim through the sea of challenges,allowing them to rise from the depths and enter the high peaks of success.
>We allow them to "fail fast" so that they can learn faster. 
>We do what teachers do, we guide your people to change encouraging to be the proponents of change and to teach them how to ride the tides of change.
And lastly we, value and respect our people, we all ways believe that values and ownership is the core of everything we do here.

Joke: And if thats not enough, There are people like me, handsome and beautiful people of Nestle(inside and out) that will inspire you to stay in Nestle
I invite you to ride the tides of change, Coz tonight when you enter the halls of nestle, you are our future, you are change.
I'm not gonna promise you that it's going to be easy, but this I tell you, Promise you , This will be the most exciting, most challenging and the most rewarding experience in your entire professional life.
So who's with me?

Welcome the Future Leaders of Nestle.

Thank you.

Call to arms

Great Tides of Change

Ive always feared change, as it always brought frightingly new things it its fold. but now I learned that change can be for the better. For those who resist change are left behind into oblivion.
It is in the nature of people to resist change, especially if it threatens the comfort and stability in our lives.
We in Nestle have always prided ourself to be the movers of change, but by benchmarking with other companies like Google and Apple, even our competitors, we found out that we are not the forerunners of change like we used to think, but are left behind because of our bullish pride. We even hired an outside party to assess us to validate that we clearly are. And true enough, the results are sadly undeniable. We are left behind in terms of change we needed to be competitive and we lacked the motivation and the management will to change for the better. Most companies are built to improve, but what truly will set a great company from the rest, to give it an edge in this ever changing , ultra competitive world we have today, is the ability and the tenacity to innovate and loads of creativity. We were so used to being the giants in our field, we forgot the feeling of intensity and urgency of being an underdog. So now the reality sets in. We are no longer the the dominant number one. Our competitors have caught up with us through their innovative and unique offerings. They have copied our executions and made it even better.  We are embattled on all fronts, from the trade to the above the line spending of our competitors.
For us to survive this imminent threat , the first thing we need to do is be self aware and accept the need for a great change ahead. Our enemies are closing in on us and what works before, is no longer enough today.
Now all may seem bleak and full of dread, but the good news is that we still have a chance to change, we can still surf the waves of changes, just like those intuitive people before us. 

In the words of great innovators and leaders of our generation, "those who do not grow, die!" and the only way to grow is to change our perception. Gone are the days when the mear mention of Nestle, will ensure the brands' survival and success. Today, we are constantly battered by competitors, left and right with their new and innovative products. We lag behind in innovations and revolutionary change in our products and our systems.We are left behind wondering, could we have done more? It is not that we don't know how to do these changes and innovations, it's just that we fear a lot: the fear of rejection, fear of  making mistakes and the fear instilled to us by failure. We are taught first and always to align with the norms. As managers, we are taught to think that gap finding and fault searching is more important that highlighting our strengths and our wins. through all these we forgot what got us here in the first place, and that is our tradition of excellence and passion to create. To practice innovation in our day to day lives.
So I ask you, would like to share the ride with me towards change? Or do we lay down and die like some forgotten dinosaur? Do we get up now and learn from our mistakes, or do we let our competitors leave us stunned and flatfooted with their speed of action and response?

In Buddhism, it said that self awareness is of the key to successfully conquer fear and weaknesses. Here understanding one's self and emotions is integral. In short, the only way to real, sustained long term success is through self awareness. Only by understanding one' s strength and weaknesses, through ingrained moral values, we stand a chance of rising from this obstacle.
I invite you to ride with me in this treacherous journey. I'm not gonna tell you is going to be easy, if fact is going to be one hell of a run, but those who with courage, I tell you it going to be worth the ride.
I know there might be a chance that we fail,but thats not because we weren't good enough it's because we did not have the guts to take it. That's what passion for success is all about.
"If you fail, then fail fast, so that you may learn from it right away." That's what my mentor used to say. It is through setbacks,crisis and challenges, do we grapple with who we really are. What  do we want and what personal resources he have, and why he failed along the way ? Are questions we need to answer so one develop personal leadership capacity.

What do we do?
Innovating, and adopting to this ever-changing world is very challenging, but if we engage one another with a loving and positive attitude, we can indeed succeed. People work best when they are respected, valued and trusted by someone who genuinely cares for them. Be deliberate in your actions, only those who know what they want, can inspire others, by prioritising personal growth and improving learning agility. Allow your team to be flexible and be open to new ideas. By this my fellow leaders of this company,  we can lead and  influence others , thru your own example. Envive willingness to see challenging problems to its end. Engage your people through wonder, curiosity and creativity, this is how talented, well trained people do. Persevere! Lets devote ourselves to excellence, show your undying commitment and persistence on many challenges through seemingly overwhelming odds.
Don't be just managers, be teachers, and as teachers do, drive your people to innovate, to approach challenges in a different way, never before seen by their predecessors. Coz rarely does life unfolds with the predictability of a carefully made strategic plan. This is our moment, it is not defined by mere events but a series of slowly learned and etched experiences to make subtle but lasting difference steadily in our lives.
Make every moment an opportunity to make an impact.
So aim high to reach greater heights, Because ladies and gentlemen, we will gain so much more if we do this together. 

We will win not just because we are Nestle, but because we stood together and rode the Great tides of change. So when out time is over  and looking back, retired and rested. We look back, not with regret but with pride and joy as we fought and bled for what we believed in, holding on and  erecting a better, stronger Nestle.
Yes we can and yes we will.
Thank you.
