Our second year in the team development business taught us something fundamental:
Growth follows clarity, not the other way around.
When choices got messy this year, clarity didn’t come from spreadsheets or business strategies. It came from four simple questions rooted in our core values.
Our Core Values as Daily Questions
At Victus People, we’ve articulated our core values as questions we ask ourselves every day:
- Excellence – Is this our best work?
- Respect – Would our mentors approve of this decision?
- Empathy – Are we truly listening to our clients and team?
- Integrity – Is this action increasing trust?
These aren’t just words for our website. They’re the filter for every client engagement, every workshop design, and every business decision we make in Thailand’s team development landscape.
What Meaningful Connection at Work Actually Means
At a recent Cambridge Judge Business School MBA event in Bangkok, someone asked my co-founder Jirina: “What does ‘meaningful connection’ at work really mean?”
She paused and realized: Every real win this year came from relationships, not transactions.
- Clients who became long-term partners
- Team building workshops that sparked genuine transformation
- Conversations that evolved into ongoing collaborations
This insight has shaped how we approach organizational development and leadership training in Thailand.
Work Life IS Life: Our Philosophy on Team Development
One belief keeps getting stronger for us as we build self-aware teams across Thailand and APAC:
Work life is life.
The way we show up at work is how we practice being human. You can’t choose every colleague, but you absolutely choose:
- How you behave in team settings
- What workplace dynamics you tolerate
- What values you stand for as a leader
When you stop separating work from life, you start doing work you actually love and designing the life you want to live. This philosophy drives every Insights® Discovery workshop and team alignment program we facilitate.
Thank You to Our Community
To everyone who trusted us with your teams this year: Thank you for letting us be part of your organizational development journey.
To our community in Thailand’s HR and learning & development space: Thank you for sharing our belief that high-performing teams aren’t just about productivity metrics. They’re about people becoming better humans together through psychological safety, authentic communication, and shared understanding.
Here’s to Year 3 of building colourful, aligned and self-aware teams. 🥂
