* Mukund Rajagopalan
  * Catastrophising: Projecting catastrophes / doomsday scenario ahead of time
  * DISC - Social styles
    * Framework to analyse behaviours
  * We see the environment in different ways
  * The different styles allow us view and understand our teammates
  * Our style may evolve depending on the role we play in each context, over a period of time
  * The two axes are: Fast/Measured Pace vs Task/People focused
    * Can't we act and think fast ?  But that is a measurement of ability, not style.
  * DISC is about environment:
    * More/Less powerful than environment: Fast/Measured Pace
    * Unfavourable/Favourable environment: Task/People focussed
  * MBTI (Myers Briggs): how we make decisions (introversion/extroversion), DISC: how we perceive situations
  * Team 06

    * Jackson Leong Jie Xing: Inspirational DI, ran businesses in Myanmar; I side to inspire team members to go along with decisions made.  try not to participate too much with the C part of the group.
    * Wee Kiong (Timothy?): Developer D, working environment yes; private: more S and I
    * suhaw: Developer D
  * For the team, recognise the distribution, e.g. low S, hence the likely pitfalls
  * Perhaps some members may step up to fill the gap

* Apurvi Sheth

Pause, Pivot with Purpose
  * "In sports, a pivot is an essential move to stay in the game.  It allows the athlete an opportunity to move in another direction with one foot, while keeping the other in contact with the floor in order to determine the best path forward"
  * Establish/Plant your strong foot
  * Leverage one's strengths while pivoting, leading to:
    * more planned approach
    * confidence
    * competitive advantage
    * higher/quicker chance of success
  * Pivot not just leap: hold onto your strengths and towards a new direction
  * Pause: think through
    * Monthly retrospectives
  * With Purpose: Know your life goals and move towards them
    * Think of positive experiences and take stock
