THE POWER OF VOLUNTEERING

Image
And a brother reminded me of this picture  One thing you can never take away from a man that is hungry for success and relevance is volunteering There's a saying that your Network is your Networth and the only best and sure way to get that is through submitting and giving yourself to the service of another man's vision. Most of the noble personnel I have connect with overtime has been a product of selfless service and definitely I know they'll pay off one day. Volunteering for MISS TOURISM EKITI has been one of the tireless selfless service I've done but definitely it took me to many places and connected me with dignitaries in Ekiti State. Though I'm not an indigene, I'm more connected than some. Someone is saying 'people may take you for granted and probably over use you while volunteering' and I am saying YOU HAVE TO LOOSE YOURSELF IN THE SERVICE OF OTHERS BEFORE YOU CAN FIND YOURSELF. If it must take you to volunteer to get that connection

Redirecting Your Leadership Focus

I quite understand that people generally underestimate the weakness of human nature regardless of whatever position they hold. _Every human has one weakness or the other_ and it's easy to criticize people in leadership without looking at inwards. It is easy to point out the problem when you are not pointing to yourself! However, the goal of leadership is improvement and this must be the mindset of all leaders regardless of vocation or occupation. No movement, no leadership! _If I can't take you from Point A to Point B, then I'm not leading you_ . If I can't bring any improvement to your thinking, your approach, skills, business and life, I'm not leading you. As far as I'm concerned, Leadership is service and nothing more. _That I'm a leader doesn't mean I must be the smartest, richest, biggest or my ideas must be the best all the time._  I'm of the opinion that, the essence of leadership is to be a broker of talents among my team members.
