Corporate Life

 One day l was asked 2 questions and I am certain some people are still in search of answers. So today #LETS #YAN


His questions


1. Why do employers ask for leadership/ management qualification from candidates who apply for roles that has nothing to do leadership?


2. Why outsource people to fill up managerial roles when the company has staff that has been working for years and know a lot about the company?


In a bid to cut down the up-down chain of decision-making, employers are encouraging a hands-off approach. And for a hands-off approach to being effective, companies look out for staff with a leadership mindset who can think out a solution/ decision without waiting on the management especially when it's an emergency. 


So the next time you’re being interviewed as a cleaner/gateman and you’re asked about your leadership experience don’t frown at it. 


Secondly, I don’t know if there are leaders out there who will hire incompetent people for a management role.


 But if you’re working with a company and you would love to be among the top officials- UPSCALE, IMPROVE, BE BETTER. 

If you don’t want to improve, people will be outsourced and you have no right to frown at it but to love it or accept it. 


It takes maturity 

to realize your incompetence isn’t increasing the company’s revenue. It takes courage to step down for someone else who can do a better job.


 Employers will say take the job as if it's your own even if it means stepping down for someone better as some CEOs do.


People are promoted based on competence not how long they have worked that’s why you may know some employees who are still schooling (when I was much younger I use to be like you have a job why still go to school).


IT’S EASIER to employ a novice for an admin role than employ a novice for a managerial role.

A Poetic Formal Letter to MEMAC Ogilvy

Listening to Rory Sutherland (vice-chairman of the Ogilvy) sparked an infinite interest in marketing in a young writer/social media marketer who’s fantasizing about both of us getting married and building a home together. I am thrilled to say I want to be a part of you (an unpaid internship) position at MEMAC Ogilvy Dubai , United Arab Emirates.  I am passionate about the new meaning of marketing, making marketing Psychological rather than logical. I would love to channel my skills as a writer and Marketing Intern. I'm not going to presume that you don't give a damn about the other ladies I've been with. So, while in Nigeria, I was in a relationship with a Tech company ( JD Lab ) as a writer and social media marketer. I don't typically do this, however, I became intimate with another lady (TEDxMinna) as a writer and social media Team Leader. I swear it wasn't long. I was in charge of managing the social media profiles and producing material for them. These women an...
