Rahmat Wibowo recounted receiving the Visionary IT and Digital Transformation Leader of the Year 2026 award in Singapore and gifting Joseph Bakhsh a book, grandly framing the gesture as more meaningful than the trophy itself.

2d ‘An Exchange, Not Just an Award ‘At the Global Excellence and Leadership ‘Awards by Insights Excellence Awards in Singapore, instead of simply accepting the Visionary IT and Digital Transformation Leader of the Year 2026 trophy and moving on, | turned the moment into something more meaningful Ihanded Joseph Bakhsh a copy of The Diary of a CEO by Steven Bartlett , the same book I had been carrying throughout this trip. Joseph leads with a people first philosophy, something he describes through Connect, Appreciate, Relate, and Engage, and it felt fitting to exchange more than just a handshake on stage LUI Trophies look great on a shelf, but books change how people think. If this small exchange means Joseph picks it up during a flight or a quiet evening and takes away even one idea that helps him lead better, then the award meant something far bigger than recognition, it became a bridge Q Sometimes the most valuable part of winning something is not the award itself, it is what you choose to do with the moment and the platform it gives you Jl, Rahmatan lil Alamin #GlobalExcellenceAwards #BookDiplomacy ##Leadership #Networking #Singapore2026 #Gratitude #infraloka #RahmatanLilAlamin
