NGOPI Podcast NGOPI Podcast

2020 taught us a lot about the way we communicate at work. As many of us transitioned into a remote way of working, adjusted our working hours around caring and family needs, and communicated primarily using technology instead of face-to-face, we unwittingly exposed the gaps in our communication tools.

In a hybrid or remote-first context, organizations need to make use of multiple communication methods and platforms to enable their employees to achieve their goals—however, the larger goal should always be centered around driving empathetic and clear communication.

Bridging these gaps might require smaller process changes, like remembering to write things down for absent team members, or more complex behavioral changes to help other team members feel more included. However, as we look towards the future of work, these are challenges that organizations will need to solve if they expect to navigate the transition to hybrid or remote-first cultures successfully.

Let's listen to our NGOPI Podcast with one of our Tokopedia Leader, the Head of New Retail (Mitra Tokopedia) of Doni Nathaniel!

Leadership is the key principle behind successful organization, where leaders are leading at the frontline. In Tokopedia, we have “Leaders create Leaders'' by setting up the leadership infrastructure to empower leaders so that leaders can learn, unlearn, and re-learn about Leadership to live the manifesto of Leaders-create-Leaders culture. Additionally, we’ve built a coaching ecosystem, as part of leadership, to build our leaders as coaches and hopefully can support the dream of #SemuaGuruSemuaMurid as well as supporting the Growth Mindset by leaders coaching Nakama and vice versa.

Communication is the basis for a person to interact when building relationships, collaborating and negotiating, and working together in business activities. Clear communication when giving feedback is a critical component on how we express a combined sense of leadership and empathy, particularly in performance discussion. Without the knowledge of communication, performance discussion will turn to a potential roadblock for Nakama’s next performance and career.

In facing the challenges of becoming a public company, leadership is one of the critical parts to define the business’ long term success. Leadership agility is one of the key essentials in order to support the success of Tokopedia leaders, particularly on how we can position our role as leaders by the time Tokopedia becomes a public company, how important leadership is for a public company compared to the time before becoming public, etc. 

Listen the experience of embracing agile leadership by Rudy Dalimunthe, our SVP of Sales Operations and Product in our Leaders Meetup sharing session to our leaders in March 2022. Rudy has a total of almost 20 years of experience in the various industries, mostly in public companies. Rudy will take you through the tips and trick and also sharing the insights of how we can embrace agility in our leadership in the public companies that he worked with before Tokopedia.

Hi Nakama! Welcoming Ramadan and Fasting month could give us several challenges to boost our productivity such as managing our daily life essentials, to be specific, our work essentials (e.g: tasks, events and ideas). Capturing our self jumping through several meetings day by day, buried with so many to-do lists and tasks, sometimes we defuse our mind by not thinking clearly which one we should prioritize the most. Prioritizing your work could help you to manage your time effectively and maximize your work. On this week’s Episode of NGOPI: Ngobrol di Pantry Tokopedia, we will be talking about Planning and Organizing especially during Fasting month to get the goals we once dreamt to accomplish!
