BINHI: the Root of Modern Filipino Leadership

BINHI: VoiceMaker Principles at the Root of Modern Filipino Leadership

In every seed, there is a future tree. In every voice, there is potential for a movement.

That’s the heartbeat of my message during BINHI: Ang Pag-usbong ng Makabagong Liderato — a groundbreaking event that went beyond speeches and PowerPoints. It was a wake-up call for every young Filipino leader to start growing from within using the VoiceMaker Principles.

Know Who You Are

“Hindi ka pwedeng mamuno ng iba kung hindi mo kilala ang sarili mo.”

Self-awareness is the root of leadership. Just like what I always say: “You are a seed — but you must know what kind of seed you are.” A mango tree will never grow into a santol. Own your identity. Embrace your design.

Express Before You Impress

True success comes when you're able to self-express—hindi para magpasikat, kundi para magpakatotoo. You cannot lead with borrowed voices. I challenge the youth: “Do not just repost what others say. Speak your truth.”

Voice is not just heard, it is felt.

Serve First. Influence Second

Leadership is never about position; it's always about intention. I told the students:

 

“Gamitin mo ang boses mo hindi para patahimikin ang iba, kundi para pukawin ang natutulog na damdamin ng bayan.”

The true leader is not the loudest… but the most impactful.

Grow Your Knowledge, Skills, and Experience Simultaneously

Laging tanong: "Ano bang dapat kong aralin?"
My answer? Everything that adds value to your life and to others.

 

“May knowledge ka nga, may skill ka pa, pero kung walang experience — kulang pa rin. Kailangan sabay-sabay ang pag-usbong.”

That’s why I created the Certified Voice Artist Program, and other platforms under CVAP and VOTY — to let the youth experience what real empowerment looks like.

Be Available Where Your Purpose is Needed

“The best ability is availability.”

Ang dami mong talent, ang dami mong skill — pero kung hindi ka present sa moment na kailangan ka, sayang. Leadership is about being there. In times of crisis. In moments of change. In front of a classroom, a barangay, or a Zoom screen.

Ikaw ang Binhi

The seed has been planted.

Whether you grow tall or stay small depends on your daily decisions. Leadership is not a title. It is a process of becoming — and the VoiceMaker Principles are your map.

 

“Do something today that your future self will thank you for.”

Because one day, a young person will ask you, “Paano ka naging ganyan?” And your story — your voice — will become their inspiration.
