Most enjoyable work environment:

The most enjoyable work environment during my internship was one that was supportive, friendly, and encouraging. I felt comfortable asking questions, and my team was always willing to guide me. The office had a positive vibe, and everyone respected each other's ideas.

Felt genuinely involved:

During my internship, I worked with the team to analyze government and private sector expenditure. I suggested using linear regression to forecast future trends. The team agreed, and I helped prepare the data and build the model. Being involved in the decision boosted my confidence. Our forecast helped the company compare spending patterns and plan more effectively for upcoming projects.

1 things to do to actively involve my team:

Ask for their input and ideas before making decisions, so everyone feels heard and part of the process.

Subtle signs of dysfunction:

Unclear roles – Confusion about who is responsible for what.

Frequent misunderstandings – Simple tasks often get miscommunicated.

Event that not goes as planned. What did i learned:

For example, during my internship, I had to present my data findings to a group of senior staff. I thought I was ready, but during the Q&A session, I got stuck on some unexpected questions. It didn’t go as smoothly as I hoped, and I felt a bit disappointed.

I realized that its not just about preparing slides, but really understanding the task well so I can handle different questions. I also learned that its okay not to know everything, as long as I stay calm and follow up later. It taught me to be better prepared and to see mistakes as part of learning.

2 negative beliefs to dispute:

a) I'm not good enough to succeed in my career.

Dispute: Everyone grows over time. Skills can be learned.

b) I'm too lazy and I will never change.

Dispute: Maybe I am feeling overwhelmed, tired, or unmotivated due to something else?

Diverse perspective led to creative solutions:

During my internship as a data analyst, my team was tasked with analyzing user feedback for a government service. I worked with interns from different backgrounds IT, public policy, and communications. While I focused on data trends, others suggested using visual storytelling. By combining our ideas, we produced a clear, engaging report that helped decision makers quickly understand key issues. The project showed me how different perspectives can lead to more creative and effective solutions.

2 key personal strengths (Protagonist (ENFJ-A):

a) Motivating Mentor

By inspiring teammates to believe in their abilities. This helps them build confidence and stay motivated throughout the project.

b) Effective Communication

Ensure everyone is on the same page by expressing ideas clearly and listening actively. This reduces confusion and helps the team stay focused and organized.

Most Enjoyable/Positive Woirk Enviroments Value:

During internship, after we the multimedia team done with field work, we will celebrate our work with eating at some restaurant and chatting casually to get to know each other better. It was a simple but a moment to enjoy as its tighten our bonds together as a team.

Felt Genuinely Involved:

During my internship, my team leader ask me to be a camera man during MSSM Livestream. It was the big camera that like you see in studios and news report. I feel very happy as I manage to get involved in an important role during our biggest events during that period. There I manage to learn how challenging the work as a broadcast camera man. I need to focus and be fast to follow the athlete movement to get a good shot. It was a very meaningful experience for me.

Action to take to actively involve team members

In my team working, we would:

1. Study each member skills and divide the task according to their respective filed

2. Set a due date for each progress

3. Make a daily meeting to present the progress.

4. Support the member that facing problems

Suttle Sign of Dysfunction

1. The cheerful smile faded from the most cheerful person in the office

2. Broken heart and start to be grumpy all the time

3. Start to come work late

Event that not goes as planned/expected. What did I learn?

During my high school days, I join the election to join the student council. It didnt go as planned as I cant manage my time correctly, I cant even lead the team in one of the challenges we face and it led me to a mental breaks. In the end I leant that I need to improve my softskill before I can tackle the job to be in the leadership. For someone who an introvert like me, learning social is the key of improvement to keep me moving foward.

2 Negative Belief to Dispute

I easily get panic when doing things out my expertise => Keep calm and slowly learn to adapt to it

I easily forget things that I learn especially coding => Make a personal sticky notes/short notes and memorized it during my free time.

Diverse Perspective Led to Creative Solution

During my internship at the Unit Sumber Teknologi Pendidikan (USTP), I worked on a corporate video project where multiple perspectives resulted in a more creative and effective final product. Initially, I intended to create a straightforward formal movie, but my colleagues suggested adding behind-the-scenes footage, infographics, and appealing animations to make it more lively. By incorporating everyone's ideas and abilities, we created a final video that was more educational, visually appealing, and appropriate for many audiences, demonstrating the importance of cooperation and varied input.

Most enjoyable work environment :

During my internship, I found the most enjoyable work environment to be one that was positive, supportive, and open to collaboration. My supervisor often gave encouraging feedback such as “thank you” and “awesome” when tasks were done well, which made me feel appreciated and motivated. The team was also very open to hearing new ideas and suggestions, especially when solving problems. This kind of environment helped me grow in confidence, contribute actively, and enjoy the process of learning and working together.

During my internship, I felt truly involved in the team’s workflow. After attending a system testing meeting with my supervisor, I was assigned real tasks to perform testing on the system. I communicated directly with the development team to report issues and clarify requirements. Through this process, I managed to discover several bugs that needed to be fixed. We also explored using AI prompts to improve our test case generation, which helped boost testing efficiency. Being trusted with responsibilities and seeing my contributions make a real impact made the work environment highly motivating and enjoyable.

During my internship, one thing I would do to involve my team is to organize short team meetings where everyone can share updates, ideas, or challenges they're facing. I would also actively ask for their input during discussions and make sure their opinions are heard. This helps create an open and supportive environment where everyone feels involved and motivated to contribute.

# data[].attributes.body
most enjoyable/positive work env:

during internship i got a very friendly colleagues, more towards casual interaction with most people there

felt genuinely involved:

every project done always include everyone there, as my supervisor will always want us to learn more, and everyone else was also very accommodating by being nice and telling us what to do when we didnt know.

1 thing to do actively involve my team:

always ask team members for their opinions, and if they have problems with the solutions we collectively agreed upon

event that didnt go as planned

presentation for our group was supposed to go just fine, but turn out that one part was excluded by our team leader and the presentation turn out to be a flop. After this I should read proof a group work before handing it/presenting.

# data[].attributes.body
Positive work environment

work life balance and flexible working hours. only need to go to office once a week

Felt genuinely involved

received necessary support from my peers, seniors and manager to succeed in my role and part, plus the feeling of recognized and respected by them make me feel genuinely supported and being seen

Things to do to actively involve my team

assign and organize tasks using apps such as Linear, Jira or others. It excels at task and project management, provides a great platform for discussion and lets team members update their progress and ask for help when needed

can do daily standup every week to meet up to make sure we are on the same path

Subtle signs of dysfunction you might have overlooked

team members say “maybe,” “I think,” or “if you want” when making suggestions

only one person “knows” a feature, process or tool

Event that not goes as planned/expected. What did I learn?

During my internship, I had to deploy a complete functional web application to the remote company server with Docker and CI/CD setup, but there are few problems and things here and there that I don't know, that need to be fixed. For example such as timezone difference (making sure time is correct for user), multiple backups (db), different environments (such as prod, dev, testing, etc)

2 Negative Beliefs to Dispute

“If I ask too many questions, people will think I’m incompetent.”

-> Asking questions shows engagement and a desire to learn

I have to do everything perfectly the first time

-> Perfection is unrealistic, especially when learning new skills. Progress and improvement are more important than perfection

Diverse perspective led to creative solution

During my frontend development internship, I worked on a punch in/punch out feature for the HR management system. At first, I only thought about the technical side and basic time logging. But when I talked with different team members, we found a better solution. The HR staff told me that employees often forgot to punch out. The backend developers knew about system limits. The UX designers cared about making it easy to use. Together, we created a smart punch system with visual hints, friendly reminders, and safety features that stopped common mistakes. This teamwork made the feature much better than what I could have built alone

2 strengths to help team grow (ENFJ-T)

Natural mentoring ability - I enjoy helping teammates learn new skills and feel comfortable sharing knowledge, which creates a supportive environment where everyone can develop their abilities

Strong team harmony focus - I can sense when team dynamics are off and work to bring people together, making sure everyone feels heard and valued so the team stays motivated and productive

Most Enjoyable/positive work enviroment:

During my internship, my boss treat all the intern and worker the branded coffee, at the same time she thanked all the for their hardwork at that month.

Felt Gunuiely involved:

When I was given a task the with complete instruction, just with the single time design they accept and procced to the event. I also was invited to attend their event at that time.

One thing to do to actively involve my team:

If the boss start do the suggestion to improve for the company,(I will actively comment the flaws that company have, and have to reduce it) and at the end of the month, the boss need to set a meeting to review the suggestion and give the comment each on them.

Signs of dysfunction you might have overlooked:

During my degree, the task during data analyst subject, we was assign with 3 people of group. the 1 of our group member when we ask to do share the survey, seems like it wasnt effective. I do ping him in group even do ask him personally why he went missing. after done a lot of data works, he tell me at the end of the semester he say sorry because not telling that he was on semester break at that time.

event whereby it not goes as what you have planned/expected,what did i learn from it:

This event want occur during covid break which it was my last sem of my diploma. im about to finish my diploma and about to enter my intership 6 month. before that. me and my friend do the unexpected plan to cameron to realise tension. On the way back home, I got hit the car because of slippery road. then need to be treated for 2 year. I think i might not able to finish my study just like other of my friend. RN im about to finish my degree. Which I think is the time doesnt matter as long as we believe we can do. We actually can do anything.

# data[].attributes.body
Most enjoyable/positive work environment:

During the internship, everyone helped each other, even though they had their own work, they were still willing to help me if I got stuck.

This makes me want to do my best every day.

Felt genuinely involved:

During my internship, I was involved in a development project. This time, the supervisor himself reviewed and praised my creative thinking. I felt very appreciated because my idea was approved as the main concept and I was given full responsibility for the final development. I became more enthusiastic and proud of my work.

1 things to do to actively involve my team:

When dividing up group tasks, discuss who will do what part. Ask each member about their strengths and encourage them to provide feedback throughout the process.

Subtle signs of dysfunction:

Some members not respond in group chats and when meetings are held only 2-3 people speak.

This may be sign there is a feeling of discomfort in communication also maybe that some members are afraid to speak up.

Event that not goes as planned/expected. What did I learn from it?

Before the group presentation, I was overconfident that everyone understood their task. But one of the members did not complete his section report and did not show up on presentation day. Lesson for me, do not assume everyone understands without clear communication. Also learn to ask questions and help, not just divide the tasks.

2 negative belief to dispute:

1. Negative belief : I’m always slow to understand new things

Dispute : Everyone has a different learning rate. If I keep learning and asking questions, I’ll understand eventually

2. Negative belief : If I make mistake, everyone will think I'm stupid

Dispute : Mistakes are normal. People appreciate my effort and courage to speak in front of others, not my perfection

Diverse perspectives led to a creative and effective solution:

During my internship, my friends and I were assigned to prepare reading materials for students. Previously, the management department always used only pdfs to share with students, which would take a lot of time to prepare and share. One of my friends suggested using it online by simply sharing a QR code with the students. As a result, this task was completed faster and made it easier for the management to edit and share with students.

2 strength to help them grow (ENFJ - The Protagonist) :

1. Strong Communication : Communicate with empathy and motivation, ensuring all team members feel heard and encouraged.

2. Empathy & Emotional Insight : Can sense when teammates are stressed or struggling and offer the right kind of support. This helps maintain team morale and a caring work environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Most enjoyable/positive work environment:

During my internship, I felt the most positive when I worked as a long jump judge at the MSSD Pensiangan 2025 event. The team was very friendly and helpful. Everyone supported each other, gave clear instructions, and stayed cheerful throughout the event. The team showed good values like teamwork, respect, positivity, cooperation, and appreciation. These made the environment enjoyable and comfortable.

Felt genuinely involved:

When developing the meeting room booking system for PPD Pensiangan, I discussed the system features with the officer in charge. I was asked for my opinion on the layout and functions. Being involved made me feel trusted and motivated. I worked harder, and the system was completed and successfully deployed.

1 thing to do to actively involve my team:

I can involve others in testing the meeting room booking system. I will let them try the system, ask for their feedback, and take note of their suggestions. This will help improve the system and make them feel included in the process.

Subtle signs of dysfunction:

Sometimes, I noticed that not all team members spoke up during discussions. This could be a sign that they don’t feel fully comfortable sharing their opinions, or they feel their ideas might not be accepted.

Event that not goes as planned/expected. What did I learn from it?:

Yes, during the first attempt to deploy the meeting room booking system, there were errors and the site didn’t load. I learned that preparation and checking every step is important before deployment.

# data[].attributes.body
Positive Work Environment:

One of the most enjoyable and positive team environments I experienced was during my internship. Although I was just an intern, the team (other frontend and backend engineers) genuinely included me in discussions and actively considered my opinions when suggesting improvements to the system. This made me feel valued and respected, which boosted my confidence. The key elements that contributed to this positive experience were open communication and mutual respect that encouraged collaboration and learning, regardless of job title or experience level.

Felt genuinely involved:

As I mentioned before, I felt genuinely involved when my senior engineer valued my opinion. Even though I’m an intern, he told me that he wanted to discuss things with me like “a proper engineer.” Instead of giving orders, he would often ask questions like, “What do you think is the best approach?” or “Which one do you think would work better?” This made me feel truly included in the project. In the end, I successfully completed a system that had been left unfinished for six months.

One thing to do to actively involve my team member:

Ask for their opinions, especially from those who remain quiet especially during meeting/discussion. Also, check if there's anything they don't understand, and ask which part or task they would like to take on. Confirm if they are comfortable with it.

Subtle signs of dysfunction:

Ignoring a colleague

People focus on look productive than actually being productive (stay late at work even though they did nothing throughout the day)

Constantly asking others to cover their work

Event whereby it does not go as expected:

During my internship, I was assigned to demonstrate the completed system I had developed. I had tested the system thoroughly on my local machine, and everything appeared to be working perfectly. The system also managed to be deployed to the pre-production environment. However, during the demonstration and in front of the director and several software engineers, a few unexpected errors appeared. It was quite embarrassing for me, especially since I had assumed the system was fully ready. I pointed out the issue to my supervisor, and he reassured me that it’s normal to encounter such problems, even when everything seems to be functioning correctly. It turned out the errors were caused by compatibility issues, as the server used a different operating system (Linux), as well as a few bugs that had gone unnoticed earlier.

From this experience, I learned the importance of testing in different environments to detect and resolve environment-specific issues before the system is used by end-users. I also learned to remain calm and professional under pressure, and to treat such situations as valuable learning opportunities rather than failures.

2 negative beliefs and its disputes:

Belief: I feel stupid when I don't know something that someone else already knows.
Dispute: It's okay not to know everything as everyone starts from somewhere. There are also things that I know that others may not. Learning is a continuous process, not a competition.

Belief: I am just an average person, and everyone else is better than me.
Dispute: Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, including me. Just because others excel in certain areas doesn't mean I'm less valuable. I have unique qualities, experiences, and potential that make me just as capable of achieving success like everyone else.

Diverse perspectives led to creative and effective solution:

During my internship, I was assigned to complete a system that hadn’t been touched for six months. Specifically, I was tasked with completing the leave application module for the Human Resource Management System. To make the system more interactive and improve the user experience, I suggested adding a section that displays public holidays to help staff plan their leave more effectively. Another intern suggested that instead of just adding a section, we could implement a large interactive calendar that displays all public holidays. This collaboration allowed us to demonstrate our creativity in improving the layout and overall user experience.

2 key personal strengths to help me grow:

Logician (INTP-T)

a) Quick to see patterns

Swiftly recognize hidden connections between ideas, enabling you to identify solutions that others may miss

b) Adaptability

Adjust comfortably to new information or changing circumstances, maintaining clarity even when others feel overwhelmed

Most enjoyable/ positive work environment:

boss belanja makan dinner dengan technical team masa nak dekat habis internship.

felt genuiely involved:

During my internship, I helped set up VLANs on a Huawei switch for different departments. I created VLANs for Admin, Finance, and IT, and assigned the right ports to each one. I also tested the network to make sure everything worked correctly. I felt happy and more confident because I got to do real hands-on work. I learned a lot and enjoyed the task. The VLAN setup worked well, and my supervisor gave good feedback.

1 thing to do: actively involve my team

Ask for everyone's opinion during the meeting.

This shows you care about their ideas and helps everyone feel included.

Suttle sign of dysfunction

Poor communication – Misunderstandings happen often, or information isn’t shared clearly

event that not goes as plan what did I learned about it?

During my final year project, I planned to test the lab access system with all the hardware and software fully connected. However, during testing, the solenoid lock didn’t work as expected, and the ESP32 wasn’t receiving the correct input from the keypad. I learned that even a small mistake in wiring or coding can cause big issues. I realized the importance of testing each component separately before combining everything. This experience taught me to be more patient, to troubleshoot step by step, and to always double-check both my hardware and software.

2 negative beliefs to dispute

I'm not good smart as others. = Success is not only about being smart, it’s also about effort, consistency, and learning.

If I speak up, I might say something is wrong. = Not everyone is perfect, and it's okay to make mistakes. Speaking up gives me a chance to grow.

diverse perspective led to a creative solution

During my internship at Tarch System, I noticed that some backup jobs using Veeam Backup were failing or were very slow. After looking at the situation, I suggested to the team that we try running the backups during off-peak hours, when the network is less busy.

The team tried my idea, and the backups started running more smoothly. This experience showed me that even a simple suggestion can help solve a problem, and that sharing ideas is important.

as Mediator

empathy- understand my team members' feelings and perspective. This helps me create a supportive environment.

creativity- I will try to bring fresh ideas and think outside the box, and also encourage others to be innovative

Most enjoyable moment work environment :

During my internship, our boss treated the whole team to a buffet for iftar — a meaningful moment of appreciation, bonding, and joy after work during Ramadan.

# data[].attributes.body
During my internship, the work environment was very friendly and positive. I joined my colleagues for iftar at Padang Shah Alam, and it was a fun experience. I also received duit raya from my boss, which made me feel happy and appreciated.

Felt genuinely involved: I felt genuinely involved during my internship because I was given real tasks like working with actual data, building automation flows using N8N, and applying natural language processing using tools like Stanza and Mesolitica. It made me feel like part of the team.

asked my teammates for their ideas when we were building automation flows using N8N. I wanted to make sure we all agreed on the steps and tools to use. This made everyone feel involved and helped the workflow run smoother.

Subtle signs of dysfunction: Sometimes, there was a lack of clear communication in the team. For example, when we worked on the automation flows in N8N, some tasks got delayed because not everyone was sure who was doing what. It wasn’t a big fight or anything, just small confusion that slowed things down.

During my diploma, I had to help handle an event, but it was changed to online because of COVID. Things did not go well because many of us had poor internet and limited hardware. The head of department was not impressed with our performance. We explained the real problem and cleared things up. It was difficult, but I learned that not everything will go how we expect. What matters is being honest, facing the issue, and trying to improve.

a) "I am not good enough compared to others."
Dispute:
This is not true. You have done many things like joining internships, finishing courses, and working on real projects. You are learning and improving all the time. Everyone has their own journey and you are doing well on yours.

b) "If I make mistakes, people will think I am not smart."
Dispute:
Making mistakes is normal. That is how people learn. During your internship and studies, you faced problems and solved them. That shows you are learning and growing, not failing.

During my internship, having team members with different skills and views helped us find creative solutions. For example, when we worked on system testing or data workflows, someone always brought a new idea that made the task easier or more effective.

1. Based on my ISFJ personality, I need to use my supportive nature to help others feel more confident.
I am naturally patient and a good listener, so I can guide teammates when they are unsure. This helps build trust and allows them to grow in their roles.

2. Based on my ISFJ personality, I need to use my eye for detail to help the team improve the quality of our work.
I can share tips on how to avoid small mistakes and encourage others to be more careful in their tasks, which can lead to better results for everyone.

Most enjoyable moments

My most enjoyable work environment during my internship was one that was supportive, collaborative, and encouraged learning. I appreciated being part of a team where I could ask questions freely, get guidance from my seniors, and still be trusted to handle tasks independently.

Felt genuinely involved

One moment I felt genuinely involved during my internship was when I was given the responsibility to handle a real task independently. For example, I was asked to help troubleshoot a client's issue or assist in configuring a system. My supervisor trusted me to apply what I had learned, and that made me feel confident and part of the team. I wasn’t just watching, I was contributing. It showed me that my work mattered, and it motivated me to keep learning and improving.

Sign of Disyfunction.

Yes, some team members tend to stay quiet during meetings or avoid giving honest feedback.

# data[].attributes.body
During my internship, one of the most enjoyable aspects of the work environment was the strong sense of appreciation and support from my coworkers. They created a welcoming atmosphere where I felt valued, not just for my work, but as part of the team. One memorable moment was when they brought me to a restaurant and allowed me to choose any food I wanted, as a gesture to thank me for my contribution. It made me feel truly recognized. On top of that, they gave me a sweater as a gift, which I really loved and still treasure. These thoughtful actions reflected a positive and caring work culture that made my internship experience meaningful and enjoyable.

# data[].attributes.body
What I enjoyed most was how friendly and welcoming everyone was, especially the media team in whom i worked with. The team made me feel like I was part of things, not just “the intern.” I could ask questions, share ideas, and actually get involved in real work, which made the whole experience so much more meaningful. The vibe was super chill but still professional people respected each other, helped each other out, and there was always some good energy around. It made learning and working way more enjoyable.

Felt Genuinely Involved:
There was also a time where I helped organise and clean up the media asset folders by tagging, sorting, and archiving files properly. It sounds simple, but it made a big difference for the team in terms of finding stuff quickly. I felt useful, especially when they thanked me for saving them a lot of time later on.

1 thing I can do to actively involve my team member is to let them share something they’re good at with the team like a tip, shortcut, or tool they use. It gives me a chance to interact with them and boosts their confidence.

One subtle sign of dysfunction I may have overlooked during my internship was how some team members avoided sharing ideas in meetings. Everyone seemed polite on the surface, but sometimes it felt like people were just agreeing to avoid conflict. At first, I thought it was just a normal “keep things smooth” vibe but looking back, it might’ve been a sign that not everyone felt comfortable speaking up.

An event that didn’t go as planned during my internship was one of the company events where we were setting up the AV system. We had everything prepared, but just before the event started, there was a tech issue, the projector wouldn’t connect properly, and the audio wasn’t syncing. It made us panic, and we had to quickly troubleshoot on the spot. It was stressful that time, but it also taught me how important it is to stay calm, think fast, and always have a backup plan :(

2 Negative belief to dispute:

Sometimes i think people don't really care about what i say. But in reality, some people do. Not everyone has to, the right ones will listen.

I always procrastinate. I’ve had lazy days, but that doesn’t define who i am. I can start small and slow.

Sign of dysfunction:
Lack of communication or when team members avoid any collaboration or discussion.

# data[].attributes.body
Most enjoyable/positive work environment:

During my internship, the most enjoyable environment I experienced was when the company regularly organized shared meals in the office. Almost every week, there would be at least one or two days where food was brought in for everyone. These gatherings helped me build a closer relationship with my supervisors and colleagues. Being together and talking freely made the office feel friendly and like a family.

Felt genuinely involve:

During my internship, I was chosen as the documentation and secretariat committee member for a national level program that involved a minister and other important guests. I helped plan the event flow, suggested ways to manage documents, and assisted with the livestream. My ideas were accepted, and I felt trusted and involved. This increased my motivation.

1 thing to do to actively involve my team:

One area I can improve is involving my team more in task planning. I will assign roles together with them and ask for their ideas and feedback to make sure everyone feels included.

Subtle sign of dysfunction:

One subtle sign is the team being too relaxed. Work is sometimes delayed, and there’s no sense of urgency.

Event that not goes as planned/expected? What did I learn from it?

I was involved in a program that was planned weeks earlier, but things were still done last-minute and felt unprepared. I learned the importance of early preparation and clear communication to avoid rushing at the end.

2 negative beliefs to dispute:

a) I always make small mistakes, I’m not good enough - I can learn from them and do better next time.

b) I’m always late, so I must be lazy or irresponsible - I care about being on time, I just need to improve my routine.

Diverse perspective led to creative solution:

During my internship, my team and I worked on a website for a staff member. Some of us focused on the design, while others worked on how it functions. By sharing different ideas, we made a website that looked good and was easy to use. The staff was happy with it.

2 strengths to help them grow (based on MBTI result):

Felt genuinely involved

I felt genuinely involved when I was allowed to assist in real technical tasks, like setting up a network system or troubleshooting a user’s issue. Being trusted to handle part of the work, not just observe made me feel valued and like a real team member

Sign of disyfunction

Some members often finishing their part without much discussion with the rest of the team. I used to think this was just being efficient, but now I see it might be a lack of collaboration. It can limit the sharing of ideas, and we might miss out on better solutions by not working more closely together.

# data[].attributes.body
most enjoyable/positive work environment:

During my internship, the most enjoyable and positive work environment was when I was assigned clear tasks with a set due date and given the space to complete them independently, without unnecessary monitoring or micromanagement. My colleagues were also supportive and ready to help whenever I needed assistance.

1 things to do to actively involved my team:

I will actively listen to my team members by giving them space to express their thoughts and suggestions without interruption. After understanding their perspectives, I will contribute my own ideas, offer constructive feedback, and help develop solutions together. This approach encourages open communication, builds trust, and makes everyone feel valued and involved in the process.

Event that did not go as planned/expected and what I learned from it:

I initially planned to secure an internship placement in Kuala Lumpur, but due to time constraints and family issues, I had to find a place closer to home. At first, I struggled to accept this because I really wanted the experience of working in a different environment. However, as time passed, I decided to go with the flow.

From this experience, I learned that even when things don’t go according to plan, it doesn’t mean they won’t work out well. Sometimes, situations feel difficult in the beginning, but if we trust the process, we can still grow and find value in them. In the end, I focused on enjoying my internship experience without overthinking or questioning my decisions.

2 Negative Beliefs to Dispute:

a) I talk too much when I feel happy.
– It's not a bad thing to express joy. I just need to be more aware of others during conversations and learn to balance my excitement. Being expressive is not a flaw — it's part of my personality.

b) I’m not good at English
– I used to feel this way, but after entering university, I started learning and practicing more. Now, I know that I can improve over time. It's not about being perfect — it's about progress.

diverse perspective led to creative solutions:

When I was in Semester 4, my team had to complete a project for our E-commerce subject. The task required us to explore a real industry and conduct a face-to-face interview. Initially, we planned to visit a nearby business close to our university. However, our lecturer advised us that the business was too small and encouraged us to find a more suitable company outside the area.

As students, we faced several challenges — we had limited time due to other assignments, and our budget was tight. Despite this, we came together as a team, shared our financial resources, and coordinated our schedules to find a time when everyone was available. In the end, through cooperation, planning, and supporting each other, we successfully conducted the interview and completed the project. This experience showed how teamwork and considering different ideas — like where to go, how to manage our time and money — led to a creative and practical solution.

2 strengths to help them grow(INFJ-T):

1. Empathy & Deep Understanding: Creates a supportive environment where each member feels heard and valued, boosting morale and trust.

2. Strong Communication Skills: Ensures that instructions, feedback, and discussions are constructive, reducing misunderstandings and promoting smooth collaboration.

most enjoyable/positive environment

During my internship, we didn’t just work together but we had fun together too! I got to join team dinners and outings with my colleagues and boss. We spent the day eating delicious food and laughing over random stories. One of the highlights was our go-karting session. I was super nervous at first (honestly thought I’d crash into a wall!), but with everyone cheering me on, I gave it a try. It was such a fun, unforgettable moment that made me appreciate how supportive and enjoyable the work environment was.

Situation where I felt genuinely involved in a team decision and the impact it have in my engagement and the outcome:

During my internship, I was invited by my boss to attend a high-level meeting with big companies regarding current collaboration, which is a rare opportunity for someone at my level. Being part of such an important discussion made me feel genuinely involved and trusted, as I was included in internal preparations and later asked for my insights during the debrief. This experience significantly boosted my motivation and engagement, as I saw how my contributions, even as an intern, could add value. It also gave me a deeper understanding of how strategic partnerships are formed and strengthened my interest in the intersection of technology and business.

1 thing to do to actively involve in my team

One thing I can do to actively involve my team is to ask for their input during discussions and genuinely consider their ideas. This can be as simple as pausing to say, “What do you think about this approach?” or “Do you have any suggestions before we move forward?” It shows that I value their perspective and helps create a more collaborative environment.

subtle signs of dysfunction

Side conversations or private messages are frequent.
When important discussions or clarifications happen outside the group (e.g., via DMs), it can create gaps in team understanding and shows that people may not feel comfortable speaking up in the main group space.

event whereby it does not go as what have planned/expected

During my internship, I underestimated the complexity of a technical task that I thought would only take a day, but it ended up stretching into a week due to hidden dependencies and my limited understanding of certain frameworks. Instead of asking for help early on, I kept trying to solve it on my own, thinking I needed to prove my capability. This led to unnecessary delays and frustration. From this experience, I learned that it’s okay to ask questions, it doesn’t make you less capable, it shows initiative. I also learned to assess tasks more carefully and give more realistic time estimates by considering potential challenges and reaching out when I’m unsure.

2 negative beliefs and how to dispute

a) I believe that I’m a fool and don’t have skills.

How to dispute: Honestly, I’m being way too hard on myself. Just because I’m not where someone else is doesn’t mean I’m behind or useless. I should believe that I’ve got my own strengths, even if they’re still developing. Everyone learns at their own pace, and I don’t have to prove myself by matching someone else's path. I’m allowed to grow in my own way.

b) People will judge me if I speak up.

How to dispute: Yeah, maybe some people might have opinions, but honestly, I should believe that people are usually too busy thinking about themselves to judge me that hard. And even if they do, that’s on them, not me. I have every right to speak up and share what I think. The only way I’ll get better at it is by doing it anyway, little by little.

Diverse perspective led to creative solutions:

During my internship, while working on the UI design for the EV bus mobile app, my initial focus was mainly on the app’s core features, things like bus schedules, routes, and ticket info. However, after sharing the prototype with my team, they brought up an interesting point: instead of just showing basic transit data, why not use the app to also promote key highlights of the state, like local attractions and cultural spots? That idea completely shifted the direction of the design. It turned a simple bus app into something more engaging and meaningful for both locals and tourists. Thanks to input from team members with different backgrounds, I redesigned sections of the app to showcase top places in the area, making it not just a transport app but a smart travel companion. This experience taught me how diverse perspectives can bring creative value that goes beyond the original scope of a project.

2 strengths that help team grow:

My MBTI: Protagonist (ENFJ-T)

1. Empathy and Emotional Intelligence

I have a natural ability to understand how others feel, which helps me build strong relationships and communicate with care. This strength allows me to grow by learning from people’s perspectives, staying emotionally aware in difficult situations, and adapting my approach to different team dynamics. It also makes me a great collaborator and listener, which earns trust and support that helps me move forward.

2. Motivated by Purpose and Impact

I'm thrive when my work has meaning, I'm not just completing tasks, but I want to make a difference. This strong inner motivation pushes me to keep learning, improve myself, and go beyond what's expected. Because I'm driven by impact, I'm willing to take initiative, try new things, and lead with heart, even when challenges arise.

# data[].attributes.body
During my internship, the environment was very warm and welcoming. My colleagues always checked in on me to make sure I was okay. We often had cooking activities and makan-makan together at the office which helped me get closer to each one of them. I felt comfortable, included, and appreciated.

Felt genuinely involved:

I felt genuinely involved when I was included in planning an occasional event. It made me feel like my ideas mattered despite being an intern. Hence, it made me more engaged throughout the planning process. I felt genuinely appreciated to see the team using something I contributed.

1 thing to do to actively involve my team members:

One area I can focus on is during group decision-making where I can ask quieter members for their opinions and create a more open space where no idea is judged. I'll also suggest using a shared online group chat where everyone can drop their ideas anytime. That way, everyone's voice is heard and respected.

Subtle sign of dysfunction:

When someone is confused or unsure, they choose to stay silent instead of asking for help. It might be because they are afraid of being judged or seen as slow. It can affect teamwork because miscommunication can happen.

Event not go as planned/expected? What did I learn from it?

Back when I was in high school, I really hoped to pursue in accounting stream because since I was a kid, I love numbers. There was one time my result dropped. My performance in math continued to drop, hence I lost the confidence I used to have in that subject. Due to that, I didn't qualify for the accounting stream which something I really wanted. It changed everything. But now, I learned that failure doesn't mean the end. I may have taken a different path, but I'm still growing, learning, and maybe there's something better waiting for me and I'm starting to accept that.

- During my internship, one of the best memories was when we celebrated Hari Raya at the office. We had a small gathering, played games, laughed a lot and the winners even got small gifts. It was really fun and made me feel like part of the team. On the last day, we also had a farewell meal. Then, about a week later, our supervisor suddenly invited everyone to eat outside together, even though all the interns had already finished. I felt really happy and appreciated. Even though I was just an intern, I felt truly welcomed. The teamwork and fun moments made the whole experience very meaningful for me.

Subtle signs of dysfunction:

- No one asks for help, even when they’re confused.

- A person is not aware of the task assigned to them, not because of poor communication but possibly because they’re not paying enough attention or chose to ignore it.

It was a high-pressure situation with strict protocols and expectations.

Although I was briefed beforehand, there were last-minute changes in the seating arrangement and food preparation timing. This caused confusion among the team, and I felt overwhelmed, especially when trying to remain professional under the attention of high-ranking officials.

2 negative beliefs to dispute:

1. "I’m not good enough compared to others."

Dispute:
Everyone has different strengths and is on their own journey. I’ve accomplished things I should be proud of, and I can continue improving. Comparing myself to others doesn’t reflect my true potential.

2. “If I make a mistake, people will think I’m a failure.”

Dispute:
Mistakes are part of learning. Even professionals make mistakes. What matters is how I respond and grow from them. Making a mistake does not define my worth or capability.

Diverse perspective led to creative solution

When our team faced a challenging problem, it was the diverse perspectives different cultural backgrounds, academic strengths, and personal experiences that sparked a breakthrough. By combining unique viewpoints, we challenged assumptions and explored unconventional ideas. This collaboration led us to a creative solution we wouldn’t have found alone. It reminded me how powerful diversity is not just in identity, but in thought.

Most enjoyable/positive work environment:

During my internship, we practice process automation to improve efficiency and reduce manual errors. One of the most engaging projects was automating the certificate generation and PDF conversion workflow using Microsoft Power Automate. It showed me how digital tools can streamline repetitive tasks and create a smoother, more reliable workflow.

Felt genuinely involved:

I was asked to participate in discussions, share my ideas during meetings, and contribute to small tasks that helped me feel like a valued part of the team.

1 thing to do to actively involve my team:

Event that did not go as planned/expected. What did I learn from it?

I was asked to present a report but misunderstood the format, and my supervisor had to correct it. I learned the importance of asking clarifying questions and reviewing expectations before starting a task.

2 negative beliefs to dispute:

1. “I have to be perfect or people won’t respect me.”

Dispute: Perfection is unrealistic. People respect effort, honesty, and growth more than perfection.

2. “If I say no, people will think I'm selfish or rude.”

Dispute: Setting boundaries is a healthy and necessary part of self-respect. Saying no doesn’t mean I don’t care,it means I know my limits.

# data[].attributes.body
2 negative beliefs to dispute:

a) I feel like I dont have a future or purpose when I see my friends all have their own successful life like a good job while I dont - Everyone moves at their own pace. Just because my friends have found their paths earlier doesn’t mean I won’t find mine. Success is not a race, and comparing my journey to theirs only steals my focus. I’m still growing, learning, and figuring things out and that’s valid.

b) People only talk to me or approach me when I benefit them - It’s easy to assume the worst when I feel unappreciated, but not all interactions are transactional. Some people genuinely enjoy my company or value who I am. Maybe I’ve been around a few self-centered people before, but that doesn’t define everyone.

# data[].attributes.body
a) Even though I studied Computer Science, I don’t have confidence to work in the IT field.

dispute: It’s normal to struggle as a first-timer, but I just need to keep learning and not give up.

b) It’s better for me to stay quiet than risk saying something wrong.

dispute: Everyone makes mistakes. Speaking up helps me learn. It’s okay to be imperfect. Sharing ideas helps me grow and connect.

# data[].attributes.body
Most enjoyable/positive work environment:

During my internship, we practiced open collaboration and mutual respect. Everyone supported each other and shared knowledge freely. It was easy to ask questions without feeling judged and that made the environment both positive and productive.

Felt genuinely involved:

I felt genuinely involved when my supervisor asked for my input during a team meeting. Even though I was just an intern, my suggestions were taken seriously, and one of my ideas was actually implemented in a small part of the project.

1 thing to do to actively involve my team:

One thing I would do is regularly check in with each team member and ask how they’re doing with their tasks. This shows that their work matters and gives them a chance to share concerns or ideas.

Subtle signs of dysfunction:

When some team members stopped giving updates or avoided meetings, it was usually a sign that something wasn’t going well. These subtle behaviors often hinted at miscommunication, stress, or lack of clarity about tasks.

Event that did not go as planned – What did I learn from it?

There was one task where I misinterpreted the instructions and ended up working in the wrong direction. Instead of getting upset, my supervisor helped me understand what went wrong. I learned that it's better to clarify instructions early than to assume and make bigger mistakes later.

2 Negative Beliefs to Dispute:

Being quiet doesn’t mean I can’t lead. Leadership comes in many styles, some of the best leaders listen more, think carefully, and lead by example. I’ve learned that confidence isn’t always loud, and my calm nature can actually help create a more thoughtful team environment.

Asking questions shows that I care about doing things correctly and want to learn. In fact, during my internship, I saw that those who asked questions often avoided mistakes and improved faster. Curiosity is a strength, not a weakness.

Diverse perspective led to creative solutions:

In a group project, each team member came from a different academic background. One person suggested using a visual timeline, which was something I hadn’t thought of. That idea helped us organize our work better and present it more clearly to the manager.
