Primus&Novissimus NG

Great corporate cultures build healthy, friendly and thriving work environment for its people. A healthy work culture is self-recruiting, great minds naturally drift to it. A toxic culture on the under hand stifles creativity, innovation and individuality. The greatest resource of any organisation or business is its "People". A happy and satisfied workforce is a productive one. #primusandnovissimus

THE POWER OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION  The distance between you and everything you want and need is communication. All things start with how you communicate, all things end with how you communicated.

Excellent customer service creates loyal customers for life who are willing to refer your business to friends, family, and colleagues. Providing this type of excellent customer service starts with a genuine desire to delight your customers, but you also have to think beyond selling your products or services. You need to consider the cumulative experience your customers have when they visit your store, office or website. What they think and feel, and what you can do to give them a better experience.  Want a free evaluation of your customer experience process?

Corporate governance is a system of rules, policies, and practices that dictate how a company’s board of directors manages and oversees the operations of a company. Corporate governance includes the processes through which corporations' objectives are set and pursued in the context of the social, regulatory and market environment. These include monitoring the actions, policies, practices, and decisions of corporations, their agents, and affected stakeholders. Want to gain competencies for high boardroom performance?

The key to a successful organization is to have a culture based on a strongly held and widely shared set of beliefs that are supported by strategy and structure. When an organization has a strong culture, three things happen: Employees know how top management wants them to respond to any situation, employees believe that the expected response is the proper one, and employees know that they will be rewarded for demonstrating the organization's values. Four quick ways to improve on your corporate culture are: 1. Encourage cross-team collaboration. 2. Offer flexible benefits. 3. Start a recognition program. 4. Incorporate modern technology

Executive Intelligence is described as the very essence of great leaders. One that separates good companies from the great.  Executive Intelligence In its simplest form,  is a distinct set of aptitudes that an individual must be able to demonstrate in three central contexts of work: the accomplishment of  tasks, working with and through other people, and judging  oneself and adjusting one’s behaviour accordingly. The more proficient an individual is in all three of those areas, the higher his or her level of Executive Intelligence. Executive Intelligence has its roots in what’s commonly known as critical thinking, but it isn’t the same as the abstract logic and reasoning skills often associated with the subject. Instead, it’s an expanded and applied type of critical thinking — how an individual skillfully uses the available information as a guide to thought and action. Like every other skill, a few are known to be natural at it while research has shown that these skills can

Succession planning is a focused process for keeping the right talent in the pipeline for specific and sensitive positions.  It is generally a  process of preparation, not pre-selection. A common misconception of many business leaders and HR practitioners is that succession planning is a complex process and a practice restricted to the largest organizations with the most sophisticated organizational development departments.  On the contrary, succession planning can be of great value to smaller organizations that have fewer resources available for knowledge management programs and the formal, structured development of employees. Every organization should prepare and plan adequately for succession to ensure growth, sustainability and relevance. Want to know how to build a culture of churning out the best heads for top management and other sensitive positions within your organisation? Talk to us today. 

Always remember this... What got you where you are right now would certainly not be of use  getting you where you should or ought to be. That's the Growth Mindset. Notes from the CEO.

Digital Business Transformation Recent research has shown that large corporations and businesses that have not embraced digital transformation processes within the last decade and most recently the new order of work or business thrusted on the world by the COVID-19 pandemic have either lost their relevance, struggled to stay in competition or outrightly disappeared from the scene. Digital Business Transformation is organizational change through the use of digital  technologies and business  models to improve performance.” In other words, what’s important  is not the digital  technology in itself. The real focus is on transforming the business; technology  only serves to support the new business model. Reach out to us today to disvover how digital transformation can help your business be on time, real-time, for the time.

Over the years, in my foray in the Corporate and Public sphere especially engaging with leaders in management and governance, I have come to realise that each individual has a personality brand; that is how you are perceived by others in or outside your circle (friends, business partners, clients, family, employees, public etc). Truth is, it doesn't change if you are conscious or ignorant of it but it does help invaluably if you choose to take cognitive responsibility for your personal brand. Personal Branding is based on a person's authenticity and a genuine desire to add value to those around them.  Personal Branding is the scorecard that measures a leader's core message delivery, their professional presence in person and online and their application of foundational values both in and out of the office. This is not only a needed value but an essential one that seems to have waned in appreciation but is highly sought after as the world embraces the new virtual

I got to unwinding over the past weekend watching the movie MULAN, story of the legendary female Chinese warrior.  One particularly striking thing the movie left me with is this quote...  LOYAL, BRAVE, TRUE and DEVOTION TO FAMILY  ... used to describe the attributes of MULAN after she singlehandedly saved her people from destruction. I believe these are undeniably essential values not only in the context of the movie but also for career development/ progression and personal leadership.  I choose to rephrase these values as... EMOTIONAL&POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE, CONFIDENCE, INTEGRITY AND WORK-LIFE BALANCE.  Undisputably, values for winners in the corporate world.  Notes from the CEO

The organisation cannot recover or learn from a mistake if everyone is hiding it.

The past few months have been a period of reflection, retreat and repositioning for people and organisations who have chosen to see the pandemic and the subsequent lockdown as a period of opportunity. Three notable mindshifts this period has left me with are: -Knowledge is NOT power, the execution of knowledge actually is. Execution trumps knowledge everyday of the week. -The common trait of successful people and great leaders is simply a "growth mindset". They never stop. -Values are the unwritten and unspoken mindsets that guide your everyday action. They either build you up or leave you a mediocre.  #leadership #purpose #valuesmatter

Have you ever wondered how some people are extremely successful in their personal and professional lives? They possess a high level of EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE (EQ) and that is NOT the same as Intelligence Quotient (IQ). Research has it that EQ is more significant than IQ- when it comes to the workplace and in business.  Unless you are high on emotional intelligence, you cannot strike the right balance between personal and professional life, which is a prerequisite for success.

Intense studies on the human brain function has most recently revealed that the contemporary mode of learning by most schools, tertiary institutions and corporations which is mainly by consumption is unhealthy and makes information unsustainable. 70-80% of knowledge acquired is lost in 48hours. The brain learns effectively and actively by CREATION. Want to get your team or corporation functioning on this frequency? Talk to us today.

When we admire celebrities, C-SUITE executives, A-list actors, Forbes list business men and many other successful people, what we often see is the evident and conclusive part, just like an iceberg.  However what is lost on many is that the greater part of what it takes to become successful is hidden or latent.  Success in almost any field; in business, career, marriage, parenting requires a great deal of determination, focus, grit, and perseverance which often gets overlooked by people.  Personally, I have learned to see challenges, objectives and sometimes rejections as part of the process to resilience, character and true success.  Rather than being discouraged in the face of the odds, I have come to understand what it takes to achieve anything we truly want. Love yourself, Love people and fall in love with the process. Notes from the CEO.  # #success #personaldevelopment #mindset #valuesmatter
