Ideas must create measurable results

Mr. Pham Dac Bao shared that the biggest motivation for him to have many initiatives in work comes from the reality of wanting to solve problems arising in work.

I often proactively experiment and find ways to bring technology to solve practical problems" - Mr. Bao said.

Also according to Mr. Bao, the meaning of creativity is not only to have a good idea, but what is important is that the idea must create measurable results: Saving time, improving quality, reducing costs or creating new value, new products and services serving people, production, making everything better and easier.

Besides, he wants to build an R&D environment where the team is encouraged to actively research, experiment with new ideas and turn those ideas into practical results. It is seeing the specific impact from his ideas as well as the team's that is the motivation for Mr. Bao to continue to create and promote creative activities in the unit.

Mr. Bao added that in the process of R&D and implementing initiatives, what he felt most clearly was the concern, companionship and creation of conditions from the leaders of the Group, Company, Center and VNPT Trade Union (under the Vietnam Union of Science and Technology).

On the professional leadership side, he is facilitated in terms of human resources, infrastructure, equipment, funding and time to research and test new technologies, especially AI and UAVs. More importantly, trust and encouragement from the team to boldly experiment, accept that R&D may have some unsuccessful times to find a suitable direction.

The Trade Union has practically accompanied both spiritually and materially, promptly encouraging, recognizing, and rewarding initiatives and research results. The trust of professional leaders and the companionship of the trade union are the motivation for me to continue to innovate and turn ideas into practical results" - Mr. Bao confided.
