Facilitation of Post Mortem

Post Mortem is not wel run by many people. They use post mortem to point out the weaknesses and causing emotional hurts to participants. I use After Action Review concept to change the context of post mortem by finding out what they did right and learn from their success factors and repeat those practices next time. For weaknesses, I turn it into "areas of development" and let only the person give future solutions and tell their own side of stories.

In the two cases I have done before, the morale an learning were amazing!

A cafe is also attached to the Mydin Bazaar ‘Tanjong Cafe’ for those who needs refreshment and dine with the famous ‘mamak style’. The most interesting part of this Mydin compared to other Mydin in Malaysia is its open 24 hours!.
