🎤 Introduction to Rudi Antono and Guest Redian Fikri
The host, Rudi Antono, introduces the guest, Redian Fikri, a young entrepreneur and activist who serves as a leader in the KNPI (Indonesian Youth National Committee) of West Sumatra. The conversation begins with Redian sharing his background, his busy schedule, and his journey from high school to becoming an influential figure. His early life and educational pursuits laid the foundation for his success, and Rudi highlights how Redian's education shaped him into a leader.
🎓 Redian’s Education Journey: From Sukabumi to Kuala Lumpur
Redian details his education, starting at the age of 11 when he was sent to Sukabumi by his father for a rigorous education. His father wanted him to become self-reliant and a leader. Redian continued to develop leadership skills through various stages of education, moving from local ethnic interactions in primary school to international exposure in high school in Kuala Lumpur. He explains how these experiences shaped his understanding of leadership and prepared him for future academic and career pursuits.
🏫 Higher Education: University in Malaysia and the Leap to a PhD
After high school, Redian pursued higher education at the Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, where his parents initially hesitated to send him directly to Australia due to concerns about him adapting to a more liberal society. Redian excelled academically, completing a bachelor’s degree in computer systems within three years and being offered the opportunity to pursue a PhD. By the age of 21, he started his PhD and completed it at 26, reflecting on how the intense focus on education helped him shape a vision for his future.
🎓 Pursuing S2 in America and Building Character
Redian describes his decision to pursue a second master's degree (S2) in America to further broaden his knowledge and expertise, particularly in business. With his character well-formed by previous educational experiences, he felt confident studying in a secular country. Redian explains how the challenges he faced strengthened his ‘immunity’ to external influences and helped him succeed academically in a highly competitive environment. This education provided him with the tools to bring positive changes upon returning to Indonesia.
👨🏫 The Four Pillars for Youth Success
Redian outlines four key pillars that young people should focus on to succeed: concern for others, knowledge, control, and target-setting. He emphasizes that young people should first develop empathy and awareness, followed by gaining knowledge. With these two foundations, they can develop self-control, and ultimately, become leaders capable of making meaningful change in society. These lessons form the core of why he believes education is crucial for young people to grow and make a difference.
💼 Balancing Leadership and Business
Redian reflects on his journey from education to leadership roles in business and activism. His experience in education taught him how to balance the capital (business) and social (activism) aspects of life. He emphasizes that focusing solely on financial gain without social responsibility leads to personal stagnation. By participating in organizations and engaging in both business and activism, Redian maintains a healthy balance between personal growth and contributing to society, which has shaped him into a well-rounded leader.
