BECOMING AN EFFECTIVE TEAM PLAYER

Copyright © 2015, Marketplace Strategist. All rights reserved.

Growing up as a young chap I recall one of the games we do play, it’s the game of strength where a group tries to wrestle the rope from the other in a peaceful encounter. Now, the group that finally emerge winner won not based on the strength of individual who is leading but the overall team’s strength. In my few years of practice and training as Human Resource specialist, one truth I've come to embrace is the strength of individual in a team sums up overall strength of the team; one's success is success of the team, equally one's failure is the failure of the team. This goes on to suggest the predisposition of Phil Jackson: “the strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team.” 

A world of independency where it is all about ‘I-can-do-it-all-myself’ lifestyle, world of individualism than corporate dependency. This never assume state of good companionship that can impact positively on others, stand-alone attitude becomes the societal influence that hold grip on those readily available to tread path of independency than adventurous world of dependency.

THE GOVERNING RULE

Sequel to “THE SPOTLIGHT FOR 2015” which I have earlier published on this blog January 1^st, 2015 archived HERE. Constantly our inner man is at war either to imbibe new truth into its consciousness or struggling to accept challenges required to manage eventualities of life and season. Just as time and season won't cease, so also each new day is a blank cheque divinely endowed us to determine its fate. Never do we have to determine its outlook until it’s expended at the close of each turnout. 

Towards a bid of balancing the checks, option of vision and planning do emerge. Vision and planning help you put activities of tomorrow in order while still in today. No force is powerful as these determinant factors that spells out in details what one tend to do even when such may lack how the day will look with its challenges. 

BIRTHING YOUR VISION

Everyone seems to have a dream, even an insane man do have a vision. Certainly when asked the question: do you have a dream? A ’Yes’ response well up in us but come to think of it, not every individuals have got to give what it take to birthing a vision and achieving it. Some hallucinate in the night thinking they are dreaming of a vision while some are day thinker birthing new innovation – vision and seeing to its actualization by the day. You can equally place yourself on the group you are! Let’s redefine vision?

INHERITANCE – the father’s heart (#Day 5 Stream)

Everything that has a beginning must surely have an end, and the end is always greater than the beginning. Today the series is taking on a concluding part, and it must sink to our conscious mind that the labours, work of generation past are not completed without whole intake to their dimension. Labour of our heroes past must not be in vain, without ours’ dimension to the good work done by them it can’t be said that they've accomplished success. So also our own good work in this generation won't be accounted successful if generation behind us and generationNEXT doesn't consummate its role.

What we can’t propagate after our demise is failure right in our presence which won’t fly beyond our dispensation.

PERSONAL LEADERSHIP SERIES: CHARACTER EVALUATION TEST (CET)

Copyright © 2014, Marketplace Strategist. All rights reserved.

By default, we stand in a stance where our character can never be defined in its right perspective. We all claim to have our integrity unmasked without being pushed, perplexed until the true nature unfold. You can never have integrity until you’ve passed a life test. Character test is more of an experience than a fact. The currency that draws people to our attention is distinguishing factor of our character.

WHERE WE STAND IN TIMES OF ADVERSITY DETERMINE THE GREATEST TEST OF OUR CHARACTER – it’s where we stand in that season of life. Our standpoint in the season of success is much compared to season of adversity,

LEADING WITHOUT TITLE

Copyright © 2014, Marketplace Strategist. All rights reserved. 
 
It is true in our contemporary world that everyone wants to be a leader but not everyone can give what it takes to become a leader. When asked “do you want to be a leader?” everyone is posed to giving a resounding answer Yes to the question, but not everyone are prepared to be a leader. Growing up as a child is always full of hallucinatory imagination – I want to become a doctor, engineer, banker, or whatever. But as the child grows up little will they realize that what they intend to become is only full of imagination not reality because they begin to discover the kind of career that matches up their interest or ability later on in life. So the question does not lie in what you want to become but what you can in essence become in life.

Being full of excuses for not doing the right course/mission one has got to do at the right time amounts to digging pit of want, penury and abject poverty. EXCUSES ARE ALWAYS TOOLS OF THE INCOMPETENT AND THOSE WHO USE IT ARE EMPLOYEES OF THE FOOL'S COMPANY. It's better to die as a daring lion than live as a sheep who never become adventurous in lifespan.
