One of the most critical components of a business is HOW DO I MAKE SURE I AM PAYING MY STAFF FOR DELIVERING VALUE TO THE BUSINESS?
There are so many ideologies flying around but one fact is true: BUSINESS OWNERS ARE LOSING MONEY FROM STAFF NEGLIGENCE OR INCAPACITY OR NON-PERFORMANCE.
Many people I have coached do not want to be the face of the business they are building. Some, for valid reasons; others, for reasons like shyness and fear.
The discussion about whether to build a personal brand or a corporate brand is usually active. To some, they will build a powerful company brand and be ‘faceless’. For some, they would rather build their personal name because to build a company is a lot of work. To some, both should grow in parallel.
We have been raised feeling that our emotions are ‘exaggerated’ or ‘not good for us’. As children and teenagers, how we felt was not acknowledged. Parents felt our emotions were disrespectful. So we also grew up feeling ‘what have feelings got to do with the issue on ground?’
In 2014, Dr Bala Muhammad, the CEO of BlueBlood Vet (in FCT Abuja Nigeria) had explained a challenge with vet doctors.

More organizations will adopt technology in virtually every arm of their businesses. There are potentials that robots will serve customers, IVR will be enhanced (IVR: interactive voice response), social media engines will be enhanced, production chains will be further automated, equipment will be serviced via artificial intelligence systems (instead of maintenance engineers and facility managers), storage will be JIT (just-in-time), and logistics will be automated with artificial intelligence (Amazon is already 100% compliant with this). SO WITHIN TEN YEARS, MORE HUMAN INTERACTIONS WILL BE REDUCED.
Some years ago, I was at a personal hygiene training and the facilitator said THERE ARE SOME BACTERIA 🦠 THAT YOUR BODY NEEDS TO KEEP YOU HEALTHY. Areas of our bodies like private parts and cavities need some bacteria to keep bad odours and bad impacts away.
