The Dynamics of the contemporary society

The contemporary society at the moment features great technological dependence and innovations, longer average life spans in people, higher levels of literacy, and such things as greater levels of gender equality.

Technological advances have also led to the notion of globalization and a higher awareness of international concerns.

Towards the future, these features of the society are going to evolve, and either develop further, or recede into oblivion, as other contemporary issues take over.

Success takes practice.

The stakes are high. The possibilities are unimaginable, and infinite. In the business world where things change in the blink of an eye, your every move is another commitment. You must understand the rules of engagement, then reach further. Secure another position. ....To succeed, you must do things differently.

Go Small –

As a matter of fact, chances are you are spreading out too thinly because you are trying to spread out too wide. Go small.

If everyone has the same number of hours in a day, why do some people seem to get so much more done than others? How do they do more, achieve more, earn more, have more? If time is the currency of achievement, then why are some able to cash in their allotment for more chips than others? The answer is they make getting to the heart of things the heart of their approach.
They go small.

When you want the absolute best chance to succeed at anything you want, your approach should always be the same. Go small.

“Going small” is ignoring all the things you could do and doing what you should do. It’s recognizing that not all things matter equally and finding the things that matter most. It’s a tighter way to connect what you do with what you want. It’s
realizing that extraordinary results are directly determined by how narrow you can make your focus.

It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength too.

No more stalemate.....this game is too complex for a common mwananchi's mind to comprehend, yet it's the same common mwananchi being used as the pawn althrough.....the kings and the queens in the game dine together as the pawns fight each other.....that leaves me with one question as I reflect on Madaraka day: does the common mwananchi ever reflect and appreciate the true meaning of madaraka - free Will.

People spend more time doing research on which car to buy than they do on which stock to buy.

A little harsh as comparisons go, since we love our cars & spend so much time in them. But we should love the stocks we buy too!

Believe me it's just began..... getting real

...it is time to get back to the Boardroom – drawing board.

Continuous innovation will guarantee growth, value creation and higher profit margins long into the future.

Statistics show that stiff competition is not coming from players in the industry but without and therefore it is an area that requires a lot of reflection. Company bosses should therefore be ready, such that as and when disruption occurs, their businesses are not paralysed.

And here “Disruption” is the situation where smaller companies with fewer resources successfully challenge established incumbent businesses...and the word itself just says it better, half the time disruption is very difficult to predict because it hits when least expected and from the least expected quarters too.

What this tells us, is that Innovation should be applied at the production stage and on to the products and services and to marketing and customer service functions.

If you and I have been keenly following technology trends recently, we should have realized that some of the most remarkable industry disruptions have occurred already, especially in the transport, media and education sectors.

For instance, Social networking sites like Whatsup, Facebook and Twitter are threatening revenues of mobile operators, media companies and courier firms. Newspaper companies have also had to employ digital technologies to capture online readers. E-commerce sites have also changed the face of retail as tech savvy Kenyans opt to shop online.

Uber, the much-feted transportation company whose mobile application connects consumers who need taxi services with drivers who are willing to provide them has enjoyed rapid growth in Kenya transforming the taxi business.

It is realest guys!...it is time to get back to the Boardroom – drawing board.

You've Got To Believe, and make that move...

It takes great courage to choose hope over fear. To believe that you could actually build something that has never existed before, and make it a success.

You have to be really optimistic to think you can offer the world the solutions it needs. And people will always call you naive, but it's this hope, and this optimism, that is behind every important step forward.

And if great achievers have a belief system, then this is it.
