Matters of a commercial heart : January 2023

[The spirit of commercialization]

The spirit of commercialization in anyone is one that's divided into many streams a person is made as. We all know that to all that's been done and still to be, the prime tick is a thought that is followed by word. The two in sum up, are what makes an idea. How it gets communicated out being through voice or reduced to page for either common knowledge or gain. A different kind of leader will opt for gain, and that is where the spirit of commercialization shines.

We have several types of leaders across all sectors of the economy, be it in formal or informal market, there's always that one with a different spark. A leader with a commercial spirit does everything for the greater benefit, though monetarily. In any case, what progress wants is financial injection for viability, and that's then the necessitated spirit of commercialization kicking in. As such, nothing can really get to survive sans commercial thinking and input around it, hence the need for a commercialized thinker for a leader.

A commercial leader is at core a living entity of interest, hope, trust, wisdom and many more attributable expectations placed on them for com-logic, growth, stability and sustainability. Their commerce logic is of a higher degree. What we need to gather in thought though is that not all leaders aspire for position, but are all different, and of all those types of a leader, nothing beats the commercial type a businessperson can be. When dealing with a leader, know that you first are dealing with a spirit, and once that's acknowledged, then move on to the figure in person you're engaged with. Leadership is primarily about responsible serving afore it being anything else, and so is commercial leading. A commercial business leader sells the moment in full to its last drop of conversion, which to an extent is monetization. Wherever a commercial leader is, I bet there'll be a seed of exuberance that they've planted.

A commercial business leader is a personage billboard for their both personal and corporate brands, and carrying the brush to paint every spot they come to contact with. There's a trait that's common to their nature, though admittedly dependent on their archetype, and that's owning selves in every space they roam at the moment. A true commercial leader is experienced as such. If you ever encounter a businessperson who's a leader in their entity and you're left with no impression of any sort after their space exiting, then know it maybe wasn't their radiant moment or that they simply aren't good at what they do because a commercial business leader has a differed way with people.

In conclusion: by right, you just have to be a different person if you are in a commercial lead role. Average, a weak welcome in the ecology of commercial leadership sphere. The spirit of commercialization in a business leader is one that's unique to the sole yet experienced same across all of life's geographies. It's not to say you buy the quality time you spend with them, but that you get to draw growth with every encounter with them. They always have something to lay atop your knowledge or being, that's of benefit. Their way of doing, saying and being, is undeniably a stuff of wonder.

A friend once said: "if there can't be a god found in a business leader, then God failed the led follower; for there ain't going to be a will to shift to progress from their rooted mode of inertness" [1] and I felt same about commercial leadership. Truth is, good leadership is important, especially when purged from commercialization persecution. Leading results in good if it's from good leadership, and results in bad if it's from fronting, as such, monetize in good faith. Capitalizing on what you are isn't a bad thing, and gains as a commercial leader are as that...dp

[Powerhouse game]

When everything goes right we may forget to point at you, but should anything go wrong we're quick to point at you, and that's the nature of it, and it's called leadership. Collecting points is lesser than losing them because people are easy to spot wrongs instead of good things to praise you by, and so is in how faster it is spreading bad news compared to good news. People are better judges as recipients of bad news as than with good ones.

When you lead, you need to be ready for such opponents and blind ghosts of doom on your daily shift. Doing good isn't a clap-hands-for-him/her kinda vibe that you should be counting on whenever you do your job, whether it's publicized or not. What people don't know is that it's damn spirit breaking being in any position of lead. Not to be confused with fronting, to lead is a whole different story on its level of own that looks attractive to an outsider who's aspiring to be in your thought to be glam position.

I too used to aspire being at the helm and when time came I was hit by a reality blow that none really prepped me enough for other than being told to grow a thick skin and nothing else to support me. You just need to be in position to nurse self your feelings from all stakeholders from all angles. People will respect you yes but at the same time not be on the same page as you all of the material times you counted on them to. The same could be said about partners, not all want to see you succeed and don't act surprised cos whether you like it or not, where you are someone else is wishing it were them and doing better than you.

If only we could find predecessors who're truthful and sensible enough in the journey, would we fare better. Leading at the end of the day pushes you to become rude and anti-social, elements that we've come to accept in associating them with leadership, and it ain't right to. Leading is supposed to be a joy than a burden, a job that fulfills than daunts, a position of inspiration not discouragement, a leader needs to live not die in spirit. Being a leader is important and interesting if you got well prepped for it.

In conclusion: pray hard for self's mental health, fight hard for strength to contain your madness, counsel self hard for great wisdom to deal with energies of doom, and work hard at solidifying your position with the entity's executive vision for your tenure legacy, reason being that sometimes we aren't rightfully advised of the reality that at the helm there's shelf life and at times we just reach its sell by date sans even knowing it and be forced out ruthlessly via corporate brutality mannerisms that leaves one in quagmire dumps. Being in a leadership position you need to be fully connected with your surroundings before your surrounders as you never know what the next corner may have in stock for your unknowing self.

The saying that there aren't many real friends amongst those true friends is well alive, and leaders live in that shadow of category. As a leader, everything you are relies on the soundness of your mind, from all your decisions to executions. We judge you on nothing more than those you get respected by. A leader is 80% wrong before they're 20% right, know that and you're well dressed for the verse.

One last thing; during my days of leadership prepping I was learnt about observations, something those who underwent executive leadership program knows. The first one is: "The order of the day unfairly privileges the lighter skinned, the moneyed and the user-friendly" [1]. This's self explanatory and as simply concised as put. The pale skinned people are the ones who gets the first look of favour in all opportunities that results in status upgrade, while those that are low in status left for third graders as they are low in status, hence you see dark hued people bleach and apply skin lighteners to up their chances thereof. The moneyed gets recommended first in opportunities and are given an ear in most cases than those not. Money buys freedom, gives liberty, guarantees contentment, and a better view by the ones below in aspiration. User-friendly is being that one who is flexible for almost any opportunity that may be presented to them, and is ready to oblige to the entry requirements and easy to work with. As a leader you find yourself not in line with those are out of the circles but as a runner in the outskirts of the powerhouse game, and guess what; you ain't got favour of protection...dp

[Who are you in leadership?]

The crisis of leadership the world over is a subject no longer a small problem that can be swept under the carpet. How leading is defined an interesting topic of late. Do we really know what is needed to lead in today's set up? When is one ready to lead? There's a lot to look into in the area of leadership.

Many do know that everyone is a leader by default, that evidenced by how you manage self first before extending it to anything and anyone. But, in the midst of the thought of that, what's to be of one who fails to manage themselves? Do you go on and entrust the person with leading anything or anyone? It's a tough punch to throw that's dependent on honesty.

What the basic ingredients are of good leadership another spike in the dosage of reality. There're many focal points to talk at length about only in that challenge that faces leadership today. It can't be fair yet true when one laments today's leadership crisis honestly. Just look at what's done in every sphere of life where leadership is involved and tell me what good there is to boast about except lies, greed, abuse, hate, lawlessness, and many other bad examples you may think of coming from the breed of leadership quality we're now subjected to.

Leadership a calling or a skill? Seeing how hope for the coming generation is dashed by current crop of leaders, what's more to draw out for any future leaders if they're to be inspired by the mindset carriers of this day's influence? The day's youth are in for a treat if they want change as the gates are open given the flooding of tools of enabling. Trouble is, the audience is no more into quality but rather populist path in whom to follow, and sadly the choice is who's more entertaining than appealing. The situation of late is a sham that's making life a scary hell of a scam to live.

In conclusion: who you are as a leader a big challenge. Whom you shape your self as a quite interesting part as well, as a follower or supporter of self? The crisis of leadership a pendant that's out for show. Who are you and what do you stand for matters more than anything else now as a leader, and so, should work hard to define that about you. Good leadership is about responsible response to the threat that a bad faithed leader would react as and contribute to the crisis leadership is in...dp

[Unconditional relations]

How many times have you been in and out of a working relationship? What was your dominant challenge in all the cases of you that led to breakdown thereof? Are you working on mending those relations or yourself or readying self for better next time? Will it be possible to get it right in your next attempt, and why? Please ask yourself that before thinking of trying again for it's important for your career growth.

For me, after tapping into the pool of a myriad of business relationship experts, came with a drawn conclusion that male counterparts lack a nurture of honest and unconditional engagement with one another, hence the rate of broken working relationships. Men as colleagues and business partners aren't being deeply out about their feelings in relation to what they truly want out of their commercial relationships. This leads to a high deal of dissatisfaction and cause one to quietly choose exiting the opportunity as it ends up turning into what they weren't hoping for in the initial stages.

It's a know fact that men deal with their feelings differently compared to women and same occurs in leadership roles. Men tend to act out unlike women talk out, and if a man meets up with another who is by default outspoken, quite often electing to deploy a quiet diplomacy in dealing with him. It's tough as heart to heart gets unfortunately clouted by the much swamping mind to mind which results in ego clashes almost all the time. Masculinity is a buffed morph to a personality of many a man, and tackling it cautiously drawn out as soft and weak, and not worthy of your position.

But then, how many of us have sat selves down and retrospect our engagement timelines with others to diagnose the main elements of our failed attempts at making our collective dreams come true? Sad thing is, we're at most going to find us as the real hurdles to our successes. It doesn't mean men solely fail primarily of their nature as the chief proponent as it'll be counterintuitive as the very men succeed in making big strides.

In conclusion: men are far complex than women as with them you just never know the end of their diversity, but a secret fought tooth and nail for to contain I guess. Men face endless security battles daily against the fairer gender and other men for scarce resources, impression for opportunities, negative perceptions, and needing to share those frustrations and pains. With that said, it doesn't say men needs to be weak, but to normalize talking more openly and transparently about themselves to others. Many of us failed to grab availed opportunities simply because of being men and acting tough as to not be seen as desperate and vulnerable, and for those who went straight in labelled as weaklings and queer when they progress. What should be sought is education for a man on him and his self-regulation, and him relating with another, and hopefully a better generation will be bred. We need to have unconditional relations as a species without shame for the betterment of selves for those we choose to form meaningful relations with...dp

[A product of your choices]

Life is an option. An option that is festered with choices and decisions, both tied to time and right. How you take it as you see it, only history of your actions will revert to you with its results. But, one thing you should recall is the type of your person as a factor of good or bad to those outcomes. The character and personality adorned by you are the first indicators of what's to be, in that who and what you are shaping the embassy your shell entity gives off as a unitized reflection of your fascicled embodiment.

The role you play in society a clear take away of how conscious you are to your being. There's a lot to life that you burden self and others with that in actual fact had you had a different way to leading your life would've turned out better, but it doesn't say you do wrong almost all the time. Your opinion of self a magic trick to whom you build innate for a projected self that we'll either enjoy or dispose memory of being with. Remember, in life, it's told that you start with what you are to doing what you want to become, and but do remember that what you become is for not only you but by you for others, so, opt wisely.

To everything there's more than one way to it, and leaving you with the task to choose which to go with. How you choose determines your future with that decision made. Life guarantees grants on rehearsals only for shows and not to actuality occurrences, and what rests 'pon your shoulders, is exercise your applied role in your existence mortalized and choose to either soldier on regardless your wrong take or do a retake by applying the latter option. Any person that you meet goes through that very dilemma in their role each day same as you, and whom and what they are, a direct result registered of their diverse choices they made to options they were faced with. You go amiss or apt, it's all in how you are.

In conclusion: what's your rhetoric of existence? Does your epitome alignment resonate with the pattern your frame of being is fashioned? With the material you consistently continue to be, are the high rise damp challenge to the course of quality or quantity you become to the outcomes of your life. Thus, the laps in your lane should conform to the way of your own life not another's, hence it's of crucial importance that you know vitals to your root in souled verbatim. Carve a sleeker logorrhea about you, a bitter ensample to negative. Be a good product of your choices...dp
