Segundina: Eat. Pray. Love.

Today, as we celebrate Segundina’s journey to heaven to join God, her Creator and Remigio, our dad and our beloved, we pause to reflect on how her life was part of ours.

Segundina, Ding, Abogado De Ungria, served many roles in her 79 years here on earth. She was her family’s bunso, the dutiful daughter who took care of our Lola Papeng until Lola’s death, and there was no doubt she was Lola’s paborito. I now believe that the constant question- “Who’s your favorite?” started from this.

She was the youngest sister to Uncle Doring, the last survivor of the Abogado family from Villasis, Pangasinan and to her siblings who have gone ahead and have surely welcomed her there:  Auntie Dyoning, Uncle Nardo, Auntie Nena, Auntie Auring, Auntie Conching, Aunti Sion.

She was the nurse, wife, supporter of our dad, James De Ungria,  who she loved unconditionally in sickness and in health, and in rich and in poor, till death 1300 days ago set them temporarily apart.

She was our beloved mom who gave us everything and never asked for anything in return. If you see anything bad in any of us- me, Joel, Cora and Paul, today, if there is anything wrong that we do, it is because of our fault. But if you see anything good in us, surely it was because of mom. And we can never thank her enough for that. If any of us achieved part of our dreams, it was because she let us and enabled us to do so.

She was the favorite tita or auntie for a lot of you, the proxy mother when you needed her most –cooking for us, always offering us food, driving us to school, listening to our heartbreaks, protecting us from harm and danger.

And to all of us, she was the happy, cheerful, ever-smiling prayer warrior who prayed for our well-being and safety when we needed it most and even when we thought we didn’t. 

And so today, as I was thinking of what she would want to be remembered, I thought of the 79 years of  lifetime service to all of us. And what stands out is what she gave up so that she can give a better life for us. She gave up her dental profession to take care of her children. She gave up her dream, every bride and every wife’s dream, to have a separate house; she obeyed lolo’s request for us to stay with them at Matiyaga. She gave up her own physical health to take care of my dad during the 11 years he survived after his paralyzing stroke.

At the Ateneo, we are challenged to be a man for others. Surely, mom, Segundina,  was the ultimate, undisputed, Woman for others, the Lola, mother, wife, sister, tita that seconded her life and her dreams so that our life and our dreams will be possible. For mom, it was others first, Segundina second. For Lola Ding it was you and I first. Segundina second.

Until yesterday, I  thought that Segundina’s life would be best characterized by what we know as Faith, Hope and Love. For surely, she exemplified all these virtues- Faith, Hope and Love.

But after hearing all of the anecdotes, stories and memories that was shared last night, I think that Segundina’s life is really about 3 actions that we should continue even after her passing from this earth. These 3 actions are: Eat, Pray, Love. And if she were able to speak now, I think she would say:

Eat. Pray. Love.

Eat for health and not for food. Eat not alone but together with family. Eat to live. Eat with your loved ones. Eat to celebrate a birthday, a school medal, a graduation or simply eat because you are blessed with that special moment with family and friends. And eat and then take pictures so that one day when one needs a good memory, then that wonderful eating moment together is recalled in all its color and joy.

Pray. Pray and never doubt. Pray once, twice, three times a day, pray unceasingly. Pray persistently. Pray not for self but for others. Pray and you must expect that it will be answered even if the answer may come in a different form and time. Pray even when you don’t need it but especially when you do. And like she did, keep some money in your prayerbook so that when your son opens it, he will find an answer that he will never forget and which he can pass on to his children and to the rest of the family.

Love. Love unconditionally. Love others first and yourself second. Love even when it hurts. Even when it is not easy. Love in sickness and in health. Love in rich and in poor. Love in life and in death.

Eat. Pray. Love. From hereon, I will hear her whisper from heaven these 3 actions which I will continue with my own family. I promise.

Oh. One last thing. If you saw the many pictures of mom, there is no doubt that they were taken  during the best of times, and during the worst of times - when life was not as she would have wanted. These snapshots were taken when she was at the peak of her youthful beauty, and when she was the ailing senior citizen patient in so much pain. But she always smiled at the camera. I guess she did it not for herself alone but more for us so that we can always remember to be happy, to eat, to pray and to love.

Dear friends, relatives, colleagues, for each and all of you here who have come to share with us mom’s final moments here, thank you, thank you, thank you.  You honor us and Segundina with your presence, with your precious time, your prayers and your tears of joy and grief.

Let us celebrate today, for mom is now home in heaven. She is with dad. She is free.

Please let us honor her memory, her life and her sacrifice by acting as she did: Eat. Pray and Love. And the greatest, is Love.

Case Study: Addmix Transformer

Late 2009, a long time friend and mentor, Gilbert Cruz, approached me for marketing advise. He wanted to create a low budget TV commercial which he can immediately air as part of the freebies he is getting for sponsoring a basketball team in the PBL.

As a PBL league member, he is entitled to so many exposures or spots of 30 second TV commercials. He had some ideas on how to tell his brand story. His words as I still recall it: "I was having breakfast, getting ready to go to work in my construction project. I wanted to find out how I can build stronger buildings faster. Then addmix came to mind."

Being a technical-marketing person, I knew what his addmix could do. Just a drop can mean a lot. It's so much like MSG for food, as addmix is to cement. My first battle with Gilbert was to get him, the brand owner, to agree on the brand DNA, or differentiator: Transformer. Addmix Transformer.

Asked how much budget he was willing to spend for the TVC (TV commercial), he replied- as low as possible (not surprisingly) but we finally agreed that it should not exceed P 150,000.

I had nobody else in mind to do the project except Jay Adlao, of Outbound Asia. Have worked with Jay in a number of  successful, tight budget video and exbition projects.

Here is what we came out with...

Here is what it cost...

It took about 3 weeks to get from concept to execution.

This included getting Adboard approval for some of the content of our TVC. Here is the top part of a 2 page letter

       and going through 2 storyboard revisions....

   The transformation from idea to execution was easy because of a complete ad brief to the agency.

   Here are some of the press-release and web news on the Addmix PBL Team

And here is the "free" version of a more comprehensive website I designed and implemented for Addmix Transformers... (the paid version was removed 2 years after the PBL team disbanded.)

Strama- Markma Linkage

If location, location, location are the 3 key success factors for fastfoods, then it might be topic, topic, topic which are the key success factors for Strama, or Strategic Management, the last subject of many an AGSB MBA student and sadly, where a lot of students falter- resulting in agonizing delays or worse non-completion of the MBA program.

Unfortunately, I cannot base the above hypothesis on my own experience in the MBA since I completed mine in 1994 when strama was not yet the norm; it was thesis writing and defense which served as the final hurdle to an MBA degree.

Prof. Frank Roa was my thesis adviser in 1993. He was and is probably among the most diligent, hardworking, and supportive advisers to get, even today for strama. Back then, I distinctly remember going to his office in Petron to bring a copy of my thesis. I got the corrected one back on time, and I am sure he read it word for word as there were corrections and suggestions pencilled in many of the pages. During my defense, he asked the familiar questions he asked me during the draft writing and of course I knew the answers already, having taken some, not all of his recommendations. On the items we agreed on, it was easy. On the others, I was prepared.

To this day, Prof. Roa volunteers his time to talk to markma students of other professors and share his wisdom on choosing a topic for strama. He proposes that an early understanding of the rigors of strama, especially while in markma helps. Having been a strama adviser for many years, he observed that many of the dilemmas and hence the solutions to business problems were marketing related. I have summarized Prof. Roa’s recommendations in the following powerpoint. When he has time, he prefers to explain this directly to the markma class.

Marketing and Strama Linkage from Remigio Joseph DeUngria

To support Prof. Roa’s initiative, I have suggested to my students to actually use the same topic/ subject matter for their 10 step marketing plan for the Markma class and for their Strama paper. At best, it will give them the chance to accomplish the marketing portion for their strama paper and getting feedback from me, their marketing professor. At worst, students will find out that the topic they chose was a difficult one – possibly in identifying the strategic recommendations or possibly that the data needed are confidential or not readily available.

Hyper2 Opening Number

The "Opening Number" concept is similar to how TV shows, concerts and events start- with a bang! This rewards those who are present on-time, while allowing the main act to be completely enjoyed by those who come in later than the ideal.

And so, for Hypermarketing2 classes, we also use "opening numbers" so that the class always starts on time at 6 pm, with an inspirational song, prayer, blogpost or marketing exercise that serves as an icebreaker and great way to start the class. The content is relevant to the class session which follows. Typically, opening numbers take 15 to 30 minutes to complete. Vcoach thinks it is an infiinitely more effective use of the time vs. waiting for professor or  the rest of the students to arrive.

What does the class have to do for the opening number?
First of all, on or before 6 pm of the class, regardless if vcoach is already inside the classroom or not, a class volunteer opens the class Facebook page using the classroom's main computer and projects this on-screen.
Then follow the interactive instructions shown on the post or link. If comments or reactions are asked, this should be done individually and immediately, unless otherwise specified. If individual or immediate comments are not possible due to time and equipment constraints, then do so at a later time, possibly even after the class, but do it as part of your class participation.

What happens to those who come in after the opening number? Then you have to do, watch, react to the same instructions in the opening number later, but better if this is sooner than later and definitely better than never.

The opening number for the class session will be posted before the actual session on the class FB page. Can you view the post and react before the class? Absolutely! 

Despite the interactive and hyperlink nature of the class which allows students to follow and catch up with what is discussed in class, there is no substitute to actually being present in the classroom. Some wise man once said: "80% of success is showing up." So, if there is a choice to being late or being absent, then choose late. But remember too, "the early bird gets the worm." so be on time as a rule.

Hypermakering2 students:  I must emphasize too that school policies allow a 20% maximum absence rate and that is only 3 meetings per trimester. You will fail the class if you exceed this limit, no ifs and buts. Unusual cases with sufficient and documented justification may allow the student to be absent 4 times, with make-up for the 1 class that exceeded the limit. But there is absolutely no justification for being absent 5 times or more. Absenteeism is the largest cause of failure in hypermarketing2 classes. If you are absent, you still have to submit the requirements or else you get an incomplete. If you are absent but within the 3 meeting limit, you are not required to do a make-up class but doing so will allow you to get full value and grade credit from the class.

Why Linked In?

I now require my MBA students to create and promote their Linked In profiles as part of the mandatory requirements for completing the Marketing Management course at the Ateneo Graduate School of Business.

In a way, this is a higher level version of the traditional "Introduce yourself to your classmates and to the professor" activity at the start of every class. A student recently asked why there was no formal introduction by coach on the first day of the trimester- this is why.

More importantly, this exercise is an immediate and practical application of marketing in the real world to the most important brand in the world for you - the brand with your name on it. So why not use effective marketing principles that we learn in class to promote your personal brand and get higher returns for doing so? Why confine your brand to the classroom when you can get a google result at the top of the google page with your name on it, for free?  Why let other people determine what others see on the web about you when you can have relative control over it (as my marketing class will learn later in the course, this is your brand identity- what you say to the world vs. brand image- what the world thinks of you).

Want proof? Do a google search of my family name- "de ungria", what do you see? Try other search engines- yahoo, bing, and what do you see? Then do a  google search for your "family name"  or even of your "whole name", and what do you get? I rest my case, or in this example, I rest my link...

Here's how to create an effective Linked In profile:

To Learn or Not to Learn Virtually?

Recent technological advancements have definitely made virtual learning closer to reality.

The advantages are: freedom from the constraints of a classroom, a professor, a shared time. The possibilities are endless. A not so perfect analogy of this are the advantages offered by the Apple Store that allows virtually anyone in the world to take advantage of knowledge faster, cheaper and better.

The disadvantages which need to be managed include- differences in the "techical savy" of students and definitely the lack of experience in such a limitless, boundless environment. It is hard to develop a virtual "personal touch" which can instantaenously respond differently to individualized needs, react to inequalities, align the learnings to  common objectives and understanding.

Midterms? It's More Fun When You Know the Questions and the Answers Beforehand!

A famous teacher once remarked- my objective during the term is to help the students learn the answers to the questions.

One of the differentiating advantages of the Vcoach Hypermarketing class is that midterm exams are objective, multiple-choice questions made by the students, for students, and posted on-line before the exam. Where else can you find that?

These approach removes all subjectivity, bias, and the torture of deciphering handwritten answers to essays. It also allows instant feedback to the student.

But the key benefit from this innovation is that it strongly encourages students to study for the exam rather than use common sense and good luck in answering the questions. With the grading system on a relativity scale, there is no way for those who don't study to score higher than those who do prepare.

Here are 3 midterm exams that were previously given, and which provide some of the questions for future exams. Click and learn!

Ever been late? Of course. Who hasn't.

But, are you late most of the time. Then you will have a problem in the real world. Are you willing to pay the penalties for tardiness?

Business Value of Time

View more presentations from Remigio Joseph DeUngria

HYPERMARKETING CLASS POLICIES

Applying the business value of time principle, here is the current traffic light system of scoring assignments, with a strong emphasis on prompt submission.

Impact of Time of Submission on Grades for Assignments:

1.     Blue (highest possible grade is 4, submitted before Thursday, 11:59 pm),

2.     Green (missed blue deadline but submitted before Friday, 6 pm, highest possible grade is 3.5),

3.     Yellow (missed green deadline but submitted before Sunday, 11:59pm or 72 hours after the original deadline, highest possible grade is 2.5)

4.     and Red (missed yellow, highest possible grade is 1.5 if submitted before the last class day)

What Grades Mean in Hypermarketing Class:

• 4.0= Exceeded expectations and requirements , submitted before the deadline, Excellent Work
• 3.0= Did exactly what was instructed/ required and submitted on time. No extra effort.
• 2.0= Missed some of what was instructed, but met most of the essential requirements
• 1.0= Fail. Did not submit on time (exceeded the yellow deadline). Did not meet the minimum requirements of the assignment.

Grading System: 

• 10 Seatworks/ Class Participation (20%),
• 1 Midterms (30%),
• 5     Assignments (50%)

Two (2)Ways to Fail this Course?

1. Exceed 3 absences (although 4 may be reconsidered for exceptionally justifiable reasons), 
2. OR don’t submit  any 1 assignment by the the last day  of the course . Notice that failing the midterms is not a reason for failing the course. However, it does have a substantial (30%) effect on the grade.

For seatworks, pre-works and class participation, I am using TESTMOZ, an application which allows me to track your seatwork score, and the date and time you took the test.

The digital score tells it all. As GMA News puts it: Walang kinikilingan, walang kasinungalingan, Serbisyong totoo lamang. (Loosely translated: No biases, no lies, only real service)

Here is a the TESTMOZ test for this blogpost… Answer this only after reading the entire article…

https://testmoz.com/144931

You dont need to score 100% and you can take the TESTMOZ test a maximum of 3 times. When you answer the test, pls. put your name in the following format: class number, family name, first name. For example, if my student number was 8, then I would put the following on the student log-in: 8 De Ungria, Bong.

If you take the test multiple times, then I will only consider your last test (even if it is not the highest score).

Seatworks like this have a score of 0, 1% or 2%. Here's how to score:

• 2%- Get a score of 80% and above, quiz taken on or before class starts at 6:35pm
• 1%- Get a score of 20 to 60%, quiz taken on or before class starts at 635 pm
• 1%- Get a score of 100% after the class has started but a maximum of 2 days after the end of the class
• 0%- no credit for the seatwork regardless of score if submitted after 48 hours after the class starts.

We have 10 Seatworks with a maximum grade of 2% each or 20% of your grade in total. How you perform here is up to you.

Why seatworks? This is a measurable way to “encourage” students to do assigned tasks and readings before the start of the class.

4.    Class Time policy: Be in the classroom by 6pm so that you can do the assigned seatwork before the official class starts at 6:35pm (You can do the seatwork way ahead of time as this will be posted on our class Facebook page). There will no longer be a 20 minute break as this is already incorporated in the start time of 6:35 pm (20 minute break + 15 minute seatwork).  You are encouraged to bring food and drink to the classroom (without making a mess pls) and to step out anytime for important calls (including nature calls).

5.    By 6 pm, the assigned group for the day is expected to turn on the projector to the Class Facebook page and also to the seatwork assignment web link.
