Past, Present, and Future 
In 2014, TEAM GROUP is celebrating its 36th year. 
Such a milestone is both remarkable and admirable. 
Initially, the Group started off as a small firm. Its found-ers 
were just a group of young professionals back 
then. Today, most of the founders have already re-tired, 
but their ties to TEAM GROUP remain strong. 
They, therefore, have continued to contribute by of-fering 
advice to the second batch of the Groups 
executives who are now running TEAM GROUP with 
same commitment and dedication. 
During the past 35 years, TEAM GROUP has 
undergone several changes in line with changing 
circumstances and emerging opportunities. In the 
beginning, it ran its business under the name of TEAM 
Consulting Engineering and Management, and had 
just a handful of employees. Over time, that small firm 
has significantly expanded and finally become known 
as TEAM GROUP with nearly 20 firms under its um-brella 
and more than 1,500 people. Its services are 
now comprehensive and well integrated. Today, 
TEAM GROUP provides services to both the govern-ment 
and private sectors. As its services cover a wide 
range of fields, its business expansion has spread 
into many foreign countries especially those in the 
ASEAN region. 
For 2014, TEAM GROUP has set up TEAM 
Consulting International or TEAMi. This new firm is 
directly handling TEAM GROUPs overseas consul-tancy 
services. Under TEAMi are: TEAM Lao in Lao 
PDR, Total Business Solution in Myanmar, and TEAM 
(Cambodia) in Cambodia. TEAMi is going to set up 
a subsidiary in Vietnam by early 2014 too. With busi-ness 
expansions into various countries, TEAM 
GROUP has several vacancies in its overseas-based 
firms. It, therefore, is calling on its members to con-sider 
these new areas as a means of professional 
opportunities. By taking these posts, young profes-sionals 
will be able to acquire new experiences and 
prosper. They wont need to queue up for promotions 
behind their seniors. By working overseas, they enjoy 
a faster and more interestingly challenging career, 
advancement track, plus better pay. TEAM GROUP 
is looking for good and capable people to drive its 
overseas businesses, as it seeks to establish itself 
as a leading player in ASEAN. 
2014 and Politically-Induced Crisis 
Several people have expressed concerns about 
Thailands political crisis and its ramifications. The 
latest crisis started last November, and nobody yet 
knows how the political situation will turn out. Sev-eral 
people are worried that TEAM GROUPs projects 
will be delayed or even scrapped as a result. But I 
dont share their worry. TEAM GROUP has braved 
many crises before. I am convinced that the current 
political predicament will not pToEsAeM s eGrRioOuUsP pNroebwlselemttesr 17 
Spiritual Leadership: 
Success Factor of the Nation 
Recently, I was invited by General Boonsang 
Niumpradit, Ph.D.former Supreme Commander of 
the Royal Thai Armyto join the Human Capacity 
Building Foundation on its committee. On 21 March 
2014, I attended its committee meeting for the first 
time. The Republic of Koreas Canaan Global 
Leadership Center was mentioned in the meeting, 
and referred to as a Spiritual Leadership Institute. 
The Foundation wished to use the Canaan Centers 
curriculum as a model for Thailands similar training 
courses. 
Well-recognized both domestically and 
internationally, during its first 50 years the Center was 
an ad hoc agricultural training center. Only later did 
it transform its activities to provide spiritual leadership 
training. Most Koreans know about this Center and 
agree that it contributes a large part to the nations 
prosperity. Many of Koreans public figures have been 
trained by this Center; be it presidents, leaders of 
parliament, or public administrators. The private 
sector also uses the Centers services. 
In just over 50 years of operation, up to 700,000 
people have been trained by the Center. The Centers 
success in both quality and quantity lies in its easy 
but effective philosophy  humans were born to work 
hard, to service both the intimates and society, and 
to sacrifice. To achieve this, changes have to be 
made both at individual and national levels. The 
changes must start from oneself (Change Me First). 
They must be made immediately (Change Now). 
Ones habits should be changed first (Change Here). 
Small and easy things should be done first (Change 
Small Things First and Change Easy Things First). 
I was amazed and impressed with their achievements. 
With the values of S-Service, Q-Quality, and 
T-Teamwork, TEAM GROUP has already achieved a 
certain level of success. However, I still wish to learn 
more from the Canaan Center and adopt the 
knowledge in our organization. Then we can 
disseminate it to others so that Thailand can one day 
be even more developed and prosperous.

  • 2. Past, Present, and Future In 2014, TEAM GROUP is celebrating its 36th year. Such a milestone is both remarkable and admirable. Initially, the Group started off as a small firm. Its found-ers were just a group of young professionals back then. Today, most of the founders have already re-tired, but their ties to TEAM GROUP remain strong. They, therefore, have continued to contribute by of-fering advice to the second batch of the Groups executives who are now running TEAM GROUP with same commitment and dedication. During the past 35 years, TEAM GROUP has undergone several changes in line with changing circumstances and emerging opportunities. In the beginning, it ran its business under the name of TEAM Consulting Engineering and Management, and had just a handful of employees. Over time, that small firm has significantly expanded and finally become known as TEAM GROUP with nearly 20 firms under its um-brella and more than 1,500 people. Its services are now comprehensive and well integrated. Today, TEAM GROUP provides services to both the govern-ment and private sectors. As its services cover a wide range of fields, its business expansion has spread into many foreign countries especially those in the ASEAN region. For 2014, TEAM GROUP has set up TEAM Consulting International or TEAMi. This new firm is directly handling TEAM GROUPs overseas consul-tancy services. Under TEAMi are: TEAM Lao in Lao PDR, Total Business Solution in Myanmar, and TEAM (Cambodia) in Cambodia. TEAMi is going to set up a subsidiary in Vietnam by early 2014 too. With busi-ness expansions into various countries, TEAM GROUP has several vacancies in its overseas-based firms. It, therefore, is calling on its members to con-sider these new areas as a means of professional opportunities. By taking these posts, young profes-sionals will be able to acquire new experiences and prosper. They wont need to queue up for promotions behind their seniors. By working overseas, they enjoy a faster and more interestingly challenging career, advancement track, plus better pay. TEAM GROUP is looking for good and capable people to drive its overseas businesses, as it seeks to establish itself as a leading player in ASEAN. 2014 and Politically-Induced Crisis Several people have expressed concerns about Thailands political crisis and its ramifications. The latest crisis started last November, and nobody yet knows how the political situation will turn out. Sev-eral people are worried that TEAM GROUPs projects will be delayed or even scrapped as a result. But I dont share their worry. TEAM GROUP has braved many crises before. I am convinced that the current political predicament will not pToEsAeM s eGrRioOuUsP pNroebwlselemttesr 17 Spiritual Leadership: Success Factor of the Nation Recently, I was invited by General Boonsang Niumpradit, Ph.D.former Supreme Commander of the Royal Thai Armyto join the Human Capacity Building Foundation on its committee. On 21 March 2014, I attended its committee meeting for the first time. The Republic of Koreas Canaan Global Leadership Center was mentioned in the meeting, and referred to as a Spiritual Leadership Institute. The Foundation wished to use the Canaan Centers curriculum as a model for Thailands similar training courses. Well-recognized both domestically and internationally, during its first 50 years the Center was an ad hoc agricultural training center. Only later did it transform its activities to provide spiritual leadership training. Most Koreans know about this Center and agree that it contributes a large part to the nations prosperity. Many of Koreans public figures have been trained by this Center; be it presidents, leaders of parliament, or public administrators. The private sector also uses the Centers services. In just over 50 years of operation, up to 700,000 people have been trained by the Center. The Centers success in both quality and quantity lies in its easy but effective philosophy humans were born to work hard, to service both the intimates and society, and to sacrifice. To achieve this, changes have to be made both at individual and national levels. The changes must start from oneself (Change Me First). They must be made immediately (Change Now). Ones habits should be changed first (Change Here). Small and easy things should be done first (Change Small Things First and Change Easy Things First). I was amazed and impressed with their achievements. With the values of S-Service, Q-Quality, and T-Teamwork, TEAM GROUP has already achieved a certain level of success. However, I still wish to learn more from the Canaan Center and adopt the knowledge in our organization. Then we can disseminate it to others so that Thailand can one day be even more developed and prosperous. Dr. Prasert Patramai 犖犖犖犢犖ム犖迦犖犢犖迦肩犖巌 Whats Going On?
