AFRICA THINK

A brave personnel is relevant than a multiple dozen of powerful men:- Juedalo 2017

Many critics were emphasised on Africa and Africa itself is on a deep sleep to proof or defend itself from the uncanny critics.
Africa, lot of things were said while you were asleep and I hope you wake up from your hibernation to stop the  propaganda.

I smell seeth and unwarranted melancholy because it wont be bearable. What you bargain with your people is fading and falling, Africa has been defaced with unpleasant paint, the bigotry of your habitants is the chaos that will never be solve.

    AFRICA SUPPOSE REPLICATE             'AFRICA IS FALLING'

Forgetting the path of your source will surely entice undiluted wrath. When the time comes the Excruciation might be unbearable.

Moreover situations leads to catastrophe, we lack intensive conciliation, we made them conceive the idea of inferiority, they are chauvinistic but the fact is we make them feel superior by condoning there obliges, we make them feel 'EUPHORIC' which is an 'ORDEAL' to our necessitated plans its time 'AFRICA WAKE FROM IT DEEP SLEEP'.

With no opprobrium, conclusion has been reached with their diagnoses. We have been settled with their sentimental oblongata that we have been posit to a permanent numeric post (third world)Africa where are thou? Your back is slippery.  They have chock your people to an encumber state without any harbinger of change.

Another aspect where my fatherland is witnessing devastation is leadership. Africa is chanced with the role of leadership.
Why are  we denied the best leaders? Our train of leadership is filled with mediocre. Our train is colliding. Its suffering from weak excavation and drained morals.

We need to inculcate the act of dimensional and conceptual ideas in our pre-actions, we need revolution in our leadership and most African youth need to be reoriented in leadership skills and acquisitions.

Its disgusting seeing an endowed continent being ruled by lustful bunches,  mediocre, those who cares only about there  personal welfares not for the love of its habitats.

This scenario is weakling the agile men of Africa. Its obvious that the dubious rulers only mimic the western heads in which they are not gifted with standard charisma but substandard ideas. They make more of exploits rather than positive political exhibition.
Africa have been exploited that's the main reason for being deposed in our independent thought.

To conclude the contention, its time, Africa youth we need to rejuvenate our mental  strength to face up the realities, challenges, unpleased situations we find ourselves, we are tired of hide and seek games. Its time for the truth to prevail, let the world know we are tired of the chaotic government brought to us by the retarded people. Let stand firm for one voice.

'PEOPLE MAY CRITICISE THE BLACK ACT OF THE BLACK PEOPLE BUT BELIEVE ME IF I'M CHOSEN TO COME TO THIS LIFE AGAIN I WILL LIKE TO LIVE IN THE DEEP FOREST OF THE BLACK AFRICANS':-JUEDALAW 2016.

Career Tip: How A Good CV Will Land You a Good Job

A curriculum vitae is a staff document that includes the profile, educational program and activities of the person who is after school.

In our part of the world, a resume and a CV mean the same thing, but at the other extreme, they mean completely different things. Some of us have also sent out a resume, but have not yet received invitations. The problem is that your resume does not pass the so-called 30-minute test. If you take the test for 30 seconds, your employer will decide if you want to get the job within 30 seconds.

Here are few tips to help with CV packaging.

1. Do not start your CV with "Curita Vitae". Use your name in bold in large letters.


2. Make sure the address on your CV matches the area on the job location. This allows the employer to see you more quickly. For example, if the service is in Lagos, use the address in Lagos. If you don't stay in the same position, find someone you know who has used the same position.


3. Do not use naughty email address. Use the email address with your name. Do not use an email address such as [email protected]. That says a lot about your personality. You can use [email protected], [email protected] or something like [email protected]


4. Take personal information like birthdays, state, local government and your state off. You don't need to indicate your age, except the employer demand for it, instead sell your skills.


5. Enter your school, your training path, then your graduating year under the curriculum vitae. In addition, the class of grade is not compulsory (first class, 2.1, 2.2, etc.). Remove it.

6. Professional certification is another area where people have recently lost sight of the job search. Add to the knowledge you had from school. Take a weekend class in any professional course of your choice, if you are the type that is busy weekdays. This will boost your chances of landing that job.


7. For experience, you must explain where you worked, your career choice and  responsibilities. If you are no longer working in the industry, write down your job descriptions while you were there.


However, your entire work experience should not be on a CV, unless it relates to the position for which you are applying. Let your CV speak.


8. Hobbies and interest:  you have to be careful about your options. I once saw a CV that made video games a hobby .  Your hobbies should be exploring, meeting people, playing chess, surfing and traveling. But be sure to continue your hobbies, because one day you can move on to something else.


9. Enter name, address, telephone number and e-mail address of your references. However, make sure your references know that you are using them to avoid questioning your integrity.


10. A good resume should be black and white with no color, except in two cases: if you apply as a graphics designer and you want your employer to see your work or if your resume has the company logo of a job that you have done before as part of your work experience.


11. Do not send your CV  from a previous employer in a email "sent item" to another employer. Just take the new email and  send your CV so it will not reflect as a forwarded item.


12. When submitting a CV, make sure the topic is detailed and accurate. When submitting your resume, please make sure it matches the subject of your application.


13. Do not store your resume on a laptop or mobile phone, such as "My Resume" or "Edit Resume". Just save your full name. B. Adebayo Michael Samuel.


14. Please do not empty the email page when submitting your resume. Copy the cover letter you have typed and post it on the email page.


15. You do not have to show your passport photo on your resume, unless your employer requires it.

Cover letters

On the other hand cover letters are the letters used to insert your reasons why you are the best candidate for the job. This will enable employers to consider you above others and why you will achieve success at work. With a cover letter, you can promote yourself to your employer and upgrade your income. The main idea behind cover letter is to "seduce" employers.  They will treat you as the best candidate. However, you need to be cautious in writing, not bragging, but selling your skills.

They include; crusiferous vegetables(brocolli, cauliflower and cabbage), fruits, nuts,olive oil etc. They contain phytonutrients which helps to reduce the risk of some certain kind of  cancer which  include head and neck cancer, stomach cancer, lung cancer, pancreatic cancer, prostate cancer.

How to Engage Risk Management and Scale Business Growth

This Post COVID-19 season has brought with it,  really difficult growth businesses all over the world. While some are out of goods, some have not been able to operate wherever they are. This has taught business owners and the world at large a lot of things including Risk Management.
 

Risk Management is an important element in business that helps the business thrive and secure them during any unforeseen circumstances that might threaten to hold the business down. There are several ways by which your business can be taken care of in this season

1. Create a system around your Business

At this point, brands should secure viable ways by which customers would still get products and services safely without starving them of what they've always had from you. Operate a delivery system where people can order and still get what they need and also plan well, how you want to get the product to them in this time.  

2. Be there for your customers

At this time, a lot of businesses will collapse and close down because they would lose customers due to negligence. Your brand should not always ask all the time for patronage, they should also get to know how customers are doing and what they can do to serve them in this time.
 

3. Recharge and Recreate

This is also a time to recharge yourself as a CEO and also get your workers recharged so they do not lose the vibe to work and they also come up with great ideas even during this break. Chances are that a lot of workers would find it difficult to resume once all this is over and so a structure that helps them recharge and recreate would do a lot.
 

4. Keep in touch with your workers

Imagine you resumed work and you found out that five of your workers had the virus and you never knew, how would you feel? Sad, yeah? That's it. You have to check up on your workers. How are they faring? What's their current situation? What if you just called or emailed them to let them know you care and wouldn't mind listening to them? This should just be an act of love but it's more than that— it would create a bond and also get you to become supportive.
