DIARY: On the spot - Dennis Wong chief executive officer, Leo Burnett, China/Hong Kong

<p>What's the best part of your job? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>The teamwork. An ad agency is all about teamwork. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Sharing and enjoying the highs and lows, burning the midnight oil </p><p>together. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>And the worst? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Dealing with people who do not believe in teams, who believe that their </p><p>own interests are all that matter. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Your all-time favourite film and why? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>It's a Japanese martial art fiction film. It combines fantasy, samurais, </p><p>thrills, conspiracy, love and loyalty all in one movie. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>As a child, I derived a huge amount of fun and fantasy from it. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Favourite book or CD? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. The "habits" apply not only to </p><p>the business world, but also to you as an individual. It makes so much </p><p>sense - in fact it is common sense. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>The book reminds you that we often overlook the most obvious. The </p><p>guidance suggested is easy to understand and to put into practise, and </p><p>most importantly, it works. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Favourite restaurant and dish? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>There are simply too many to mention. I love food. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>But nowhere comes even close to the dishes my mom makes. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Favourite fashion designer? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Levi's. It's the image, all about being "original". And that originality </p><p>is everlasting and never goes out of fashion. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>What are your hobbies? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Soccer and interior design. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Where did you go on your holiday? </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Toronto, Canada. </p><p><BR><BR> </p><p>Please finish this line, I wish I could ... spend more time with my </p><p>family. </p><p><BR><BR> </p>
