On Saturday, May 4, 2024, I attended the second OSI Electronics Batam Indonesia Annual Dinner and Dance. It’s an event that I looked forward to after my first experience last year because it is a testament to when organizations get their culture right; amazing things happen.
Indonesia is a country of over 1,300 ethnic groups, and this is a celebration of the diversity and inclusion at its highest level.
I've been to many Annual Dinner and Dance events before, and what usually happens after the dinner and lucky draw rounds is that almost 80% of the employees vanish. Additionally, almost all activities are outsourced, leaving everyone as mere spectators.
At OSI Electronics Indonesia, however, over 2,000 employees come together on a night where hardly anything is outsourced. Ninety percent of the performances are carried out by the employees, with wild support throughout the whole night.
The evening concludes with a dance segment where you feel like you're attending a rock concert, with everyone dancing to the music. The jumping even causes the entire ballroom floor to vibrate!
When you have a culture of togetherness, there is greater understanding and trust among one another. With such a rich and healthy culture, OSI Electronics Batam, Indonesia has a much higher commitment and ownership, and that translates to taking great care of our customers.
In an era of constant disruptive changes in the industry, this is a strategic competitive advantage.
