SKILLS ACQUISITION TRAINING

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) contributes to the growth of prosperity. It serves to promote healthy and socially responsible causes that impact positively.

Recently due to ailing economy and resultant hardship, politicians and public figures have come under intense pressure to assist their constituencies and communities. Of course by the nature of public offices they occupy, they're morally obliged to notice the underprivileged, indigent and dilapidating environment and take action.

How they respond depends on who they are; nature of services they render to the people and mindset. Very often the temptations to respond through cash donations or promissory notes become irrisistible. Yet, some public officers who have aides get over some of these public relations engagement with the communities in different ways.

One of the various engagements is occasionally organising empowerment skills acquisition training for selected groups across the community.

You can leverage on our Skills Acquisition Training Program to empower the youth, unemployed persons and retrain already working people in your constituencies/communities. Your benefits are innumerable.

Let's start with visibility. The nature of services public officers render, their venue and personalities remain opaque to some huge percentage of his/her constituents. That doesn't help loyalty, comradeship, trust and brand identity building. All that change with the launch of our training program.

The other benefit which cash donations alone cannot replace is the fact that training is seed sowing with unlimited quantity ahead. Whereas cash donations shared by few hundreds or thousands are usually for economic relief and consumption.

CONSTITUENT PROJECTS

Honourable, pause a minute to take a retrospection of various celebrations you've had: birthdays, anniversaries, thanksgivings etc. Did you consider using any of those past occasions to promote CSR? If you did the benefits would have been yours.

Now that you've gotten ideas next time you're going to engage in any or all of those activities you may wish to secure our services. It's pretty affordable because we also serve communities in one way or the other.

THE FUTURE AND YOUR VISION

Your ideas about how you would be in the future is your vision. It's often the best one would wish him or herself.

About this time of the year we begin to take stock of our activities and results so far and adjust here and there.

Call it decision, guide or resolution, whatever you may call it, the purpose is to be properly directed for a desired result.

A humble beginning like most of us have is just a stepping stone. To continue on that level, to say the least is not being ambitious.

Who among you now a tenant wants to remain so for life? If it doesn't cost anything to dream, no one would choose to remain at the 'humble beginning' level for life.

That inert desire humans have for better tomorrow is the reason why you're reading this business message. Here's a report:

HOW NOT TO LOOSE YOUR DWELLING HOUSE AFTER 25 YEARS is a Report to guide you to become an owner occupier, from 2023 rather than remain/live as tenant for life.

We invite everyone passionate about innovations and prosperous ideas to quickly join our group to get the report.

Or DM us indicating interest to receive the report.

Getting better daily is our mission.

The internet is like a big ocean. Swimming, surfing, fishing etc - these activities unguided may lead to wasteful soujourn.

Thanks.

PUTTING OUR ACTIVITIES IN PERSPECTIVE

We warmly welcome those of you that have just joined.

We also welcome your introduction and comments.

We're gradually approaching the end of the year when we

take stock of our activIties and mission during the year.

From online mentor, Matt Maurice quoting another

mentor on the need to ask stock-taking question more

frequently suggests this apt question:

"If every person in my organization personally

produced at the level I personally produced at

this month, would my team be exploding with

growth?"

If the answer is no, you have only one person to blame for your team’s lack of duplication - you!"

I tried the question and in all honesty felt ashamed.

Wait a minute...

We started with Workshop titled "Overcoming Common Challenges in Business Environment"

And discussed:

1. Capital formation

2. Resources/Raw materials

3. Record keeping

4. Infrastructural base

5. Training - Publishing

6. Compliance with regulatory authorities

The workshop, even though poorly attended was for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs).

According to a statistical analysis SMEs form the backbone of Nigeria economy by generating about 96% of businesses in the economy.

The secret of efficient management of SMEs according to Eric Uwaoma, director Enterprise segment, Etisalat Nigeria is networking of IDEAS.

In line with networking of ideas we intensified the campaign online and just picking up as the year ends.

The challenge now is to ensure that the period between now and the end of the year positive trends would climax our training for 2023.

The part you'd play to make this aspiration realizable cannot be overemphasized.

Your inquiries are welcome. DM as soon as possible as a new batch of training commences very soon.

Your success.

HUSHPUPPI JAILED IN US - BBC NEWS

#corporateleaders
Ikechukwu Odoemelam Esq

"A notorious Instagram influencer from Nigeria has been jailed for more than 11 years in the US for his role in an international fraud syndicate.

Hushpuppi, whose real name is Ramon Abbas, was also ordered to pay $1,732,841 (£1,516,182) in restitution to two victims.

The influencer rose to fame flaunting his wealthy lifestyle on his page, which boasted 2.8 million followers.

But it all came crashing down when he was arrested in Dubai two years ago.

According to Don Alway, the assistant director in charge of the FBI's Los Angeles field office, Abbas had - behind the glitz of his account - become "one of the most prolific money launderers in the world".

"Abbas leveraged his social media platforms... to gain notoriety and to brag about the immense wealth he acquired by conducting business email compromise scams, online bank heists and other cyber-enabled fraud that financially ruined scores of victims and provided assistance to the North Korean regime," Mr Alway said in a court document on Monday.

Abbas pleaded guilty to money laundering last year, admitting attempting to steal more than $1.1m from someone who wanted to fund a new children's school in Qatar. Court documents in California say he played a key role in the scheme, playing "the roles of bank officials and creating a bogus website".

He also admitted to "several other cyber and business email compromise schemes that cumulatively caused more than $24 million in losses", the US justice department said.

Among them was a 2019 scheme, which plunged the European island of Malta into chaos as payment systems shut down after he tried to launder €13m ($13m) stolen by a gang of North Korean hackers from the Maltese Bank of Valletta."

LOOMING GLOBAL ECONOMIC CRISIS REVEALED

Every part of the globe is complaining of a common

ailment - currency crumbling. Of course we'll spot the

ailment as economics.

A subject that affects everyone. Lots of arguments as to

solutions That also involves almost everyone offering

free. opinions.

From elementary economics we know the roles of CBNs,

that it includes monetarism and demand management.

Rising inflation has spread and become palpably present

in the global economy. Consequently most nation's CBs

reacted similarly by raising rates. Rates influence cost of

borrowing and that way passed on to the consumers.

It was miscalculation arising from inflation that led to the

fall of Liz Traus' UK government formed on the basis of

substantial tax cuts.

Bank of England's response was unprecedented raise of

interest rate that threw the economy out of balance.

On Friday 28/10/2022 USA Federal Reserve raised rates

by 75 basis points, the highest it's been since 2008.

Sequel to that, an extraordinary meeting was held in

Washington, November 2, 2022. In attendance were the

Federal Reserve, Comptroller of currency, IMF, World

Bank and Governors of Central Banks of African

countries.

The issue agreed upon was US monetary policy that from

31st January, 2023 only recent $ currency from 2021 will

be in circulation and acceptable. The implication is that

currencies bearing earlier printing dates would become

unacceptable.

You see the cloud of economic uncertainties surrounding

us? Just as stated above, everyone everywhere is

involved as global economic crisis looms.

Any remedy in sight? Not in the nearest future. But to be

aware of developments and maneuvers IDEA WORKSHOP

has step-by-step guide as to how not to fall victim.

The report will be valuable asset for your entire business

and social life through the year and armed to enter 2023.

DM for interest to receive the report.

Your success.

NIGERIA START-UPS ACT 2022

Ikechukwu Odoemelam Esq

#corporateleaders #digitaleducation #digitalskills

The end of the second 'ember' month of 2022. My opinion, if you ask, is that the cup is half-full not half-empty.

So today a glinpse at a WEEK OF DIGITAL ENTREPRENURSHIP.

It started with the coming into effect of Nigeria Start-ups Act 2022 earlier. The object of the Act is to enhance innovations and creativity. Everyone has something to benefit from the Act. Think about digitalized professionalism.

Reports say it's the largest Digital Economy in Africa. Of course it should, going by population and size of Nigeria's economy, as well as the depth of digital connectivity.

Digital Economy Industry Working group (DEIWG) has been inauguarated. The purpose of the the platform is to instigate public-private dialogue.

Thereafter Lectures were organized to dissect the scheme and generate ideas for successful implementation. You need to search for the resources and you'd see that so much is in stock for the public, especially entrepreneurs.

For those in Advanced Digital Content Creation, it would be a field day. Common pools of legal resources would no longer be for high profile law firms and businesses only.

Right now construction of Digital Economy complex that would house Nigeria Start-ups is on the way .. and speedily too.

The wake up call is for every digital minded people and entrepreneurs to start taking advantage of the provisions of the Act.

A very good and valuable opportunity if you ask me.

That's why at IDEA WORKSHOP we've arranged basic digital Start-up skills that beginners would use as foundation for a meaningful online business adventure.

Stop procrastinating, reality is inside of you. Just say you can.

Our mission is to provide the opportunity for you to start implementing those ideas you've been nursing without results.

DIGITAL ECONOMY AND FINANCIAL INTELLIGENCE

With the enactment of Nigeria Start-up

Act 2022, anxious stakeholders and

teeming unemployed persons, are

poised to activate various aspects of the

infrastructure for economic

advancement.

The pertinent component to this

development is financial intelligence.

OnlIne streams of income, e-commerce,

website-building, content writing,

payment system providers etc. are

some of the activities you legitimately

can engage in.

ICT contribution to GDP has been on the

increase since 2020. From statistical

report it was 24.72% at the 1st quarter

of 2020, 17.92% in 2021, 18.44 in the 1st

Q of 2022.

With the youths and stakeholders

making sufficient input into the outcome

of the Act, it's bound to be a welcome

phenomenon.

National Digital Innovations

Entreprenurship Council with President &

vice as Chairman and vice Chairman is

to be established.

According to excited Minister of

Communications and Digital Economy,

Isa Pantami, the foundation will

commence with take-off grant of at

least N10 billion.

That's another boom to the benefits of

stakeholders.

It's a new money making platform

leveraging on the power of technology

different from the traditional model.

For increasing number of non-

professionals, various opportunities

abound to create valuable contents, but

most of these are not monetized.

Some have acquired the relevant skills

and moved on. But for those who are yet

to learn the skills opportunity beckons.

We're available to teach you how to if

you partner with IDEA WORKSHOP. Just

DM indicating interest.

Your progress.

ACHIEVE MORE WITH INTENTIONAL DECISIONS

#corporateleaders

Welcome new members. If you join IDEA

WORKSHOP, it's a thumb up for

entreprenurship.

Entreprenurship is calculated dreams...

..one of the prescriptions by experts

to rescue world economy showing signs

of recession.

Minister of Communications and Digital

Economy, Dr Isa Pantani announced that

Nigeria Startups Bill has been passed

into law - a boost to entreprenurship.

During recessions everything becomes

small, shrinked and valueless.

American musician, Ryan Shupe said,

"dream big if you want to dream;

because it might come true."

Entreprenurship is limitless, and also

known world over to be the shortcut to

wealth creation.

Embracing entreprenurship is usually a

difficult decision if you've been working

all your life and suddenly jobs begin to

elude you. Funny enough, most of the

jobs you apply for through physical office

addresses are now available only online.

What's more, you need online skills to

get them.

You see what my message is all about?

If you're one of those seeking bridging

skills to transform DM us for a guide.

Some stranded ASSU strike students

have acquired this bridging skills and

are now working online as they resume

after the strike.

These books are available for $0.99 for

those of you commencing our program on

24th October, 2022. It's bonus offer if you

want. After that date the price goes back

to $8 each.

ECONOMIC STRANGULATION PREDICTED FOR NIGERIA

Former CBN Governor and dethroned Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi attended Kaduna Investment Fair.

His call for the balkanisation of NNPC stole the show. It was no hold bared, and forthright.

Nigeria's indebtedness analysis was scary and horrifying. Every amount of income earned by FGN henceforth would be used for servicing loans alone - no savings!

Recurring expenditures like salaries would be funded through borrowing.

This came on the heals of dollar sharp rise against other currencies especially Naira N700 fetches $1. Unbelievable.

You don't need to be an economist to know that the survival of ordinary individuals like you and I is seriously at stake.

Do you see any solution on the horizon? Jobs have taken flight already. What else?

YOU! That's the only thing left...

DECISION.

Are you one of those seeking some rewarding escape routes out of the imminent economic strangulation?

STEP into 2023 with solid one or two skills that could liberate you from the hardship politicians cannot cure.

Just DM interest. We'd guide a few serious interested individuals how stranded ASSU strike students are now making reasonable income and ready to go back to school.

These books are available for $0.99 for those of you commencing our program on 24th October, 2022. It's bonus offer if you want. After that date the price goes back to $8 each.

EVERY ECONOMY THRIVES ON ENTREPRENEURSHIP

#corporateleaders

Nigeria is again at the penumbra of transition having run full circle of the constitutional limit of democratically elected government. Despite the slogans and policies put in place for agriculture, food production and prosperous nation, it's on record that Nigerians have been empoverished, with close to 80% of citizens living below poverty line of $1 a day. There's high inflation with 2015 as a base.

Check the cost of living indices from 2015 to date; what do you find? The common man's staple foods cost as much, if not more than their imported substitutes, that you begin to wonder the sense in banning their importation when we're not ready with domestic supplies. Frustrated consumers become induced economic saboteurs and short changers, although some are deliberate. Earnestly there's a case of cutting the nose to spice the face.

The political class don't seem to have a clue as to how to change the trajectory that brought the economy to where it is right now. Repeating the same trajectory and hoping for a different result? Doubtful.

THE STORY OF ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT:

The level of food crisis in Nigeria today has necessitated the sad story of this fallen hero of entreprenurship. Entrepreneurship and leadership often emerge from crisis and emergencies like Kentucky fried chicken global food vendor. Kentucky is one entreprenurship venture that makes US economy thrive.

Until his death October 2022, USMAN ABUBAKAR RIMI was a Final-Year Medicine and Surgery student of Usman Danfodiyo University Sokoto, UDUS and an indegene of Rimi LGA in Katsina State. According to Umar Idris, Chairman of 21st Century Entrepreneurs Hub and an ally of the deceased, Rimi had leadership and entreprenurial spirit, and was the Katsina State coordinator of 21st Century Entrepreneurs Hub. It was in that capacity that he coordinated the Global Entrepreneurship in 2019 and 2020.

As a result of the prolonged ASSU strike, the entreprenurial spirit drove Rimi to establish Food Vending/Indomie joint at the diplomat area of Sokoto state to earn income as the strike action continued. It could only be someone with the entrepreneurial disposition like Rimi that did that. I was pained to read of his demise just days before going back to school to graduate. What a monumental losses!

COUNTING THE LOSSES

As ASSU calls off the eight-months old strike which has paralysed education sector and the economy apparently the time to commence counting the losses inflicted by the behemoth has come.

At the just ended United Nations General Assembly (UNGA77) the President of World Bank group hit the nail on the head when he aptly observed:

"A silent learning crisis is unfolding that has become devastating shock to human capital. We need to work to prevent further damage and build more effective systems. We urge you the world leaders, to meet this crisis head-on and act to improve learning outcomes for all children everywhere"

If you extrapolate that to Nigerian situation you'd find a devastating blow not only to the students and their financial losses, but also a blow that has thrown the Federal Government off balance.

Certainly this is a tough time for all the stakeholders in this prolonged strike action requiring each of them to mitigate their losses.

Our sympathy is always on the students and their sponsors for going through the rough road. Yet, there must be something to fall back on......

One or two skills acquisition training should have been completed during that period of discontent and unproductivity.

Some of the students that took advantage of our training program are better equipped than their counterparts.

You're welcome to DM and find out details of how to keep learning even when you've been stopped from continuing by circumstances beyond your control.

Your progress.

WOULD YOU PREFER WORK FROM HOME TO PHYSICAL WORK PLACE?

Your answer should not be that of your colleague or neighbor. The reason is not farfetched. Location, commute, circumstances, motivation, ambiance, lifestyle, rewards etc influence choices and options.

However, the debate about hybrid workplace options has been raging as an off-shoot of global onslaught against COVID-19 pandemic. While in real life (IRL) has remained the traditional, capitalist model and the status quo, a new model work culture was birthed as a result of lockdown and other policies put in place globally to combat COVID-19 which came to be known as the new normal. Therefore it became 'new normal' for employees or everyone to avoid traditional businesses/workplaces, yet perform work activities at home.

It also became new normal for companies and employers to provide alternative office space and tools, appliances and devices to their employees who have been 'forced' to work from home. Work from home is fast becoming adventurous floodgate which some companies like Spotify has adopted for their employees across the globe.

This phenomenon has increased the advent of work-at-home syndrome that has become 21st century lifestyle and work style. Whether part-time or full-time, more and more people are opting to work remotely. This feature has been commended as a measure of social progress and necessary component of thriving entrepreneurship.

Different comments and analysis have been proferred for and against each option and a hybrid of options. Where do you stand in all of these?

The poser has been graphically constructed thus:

In Real Life (IRL) V. Remote work, striking a balance.

IRL has more stress and distractions; less productive than remote work. Raises issues of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. IRL has propensity to induce toxic staff relationships. Decision about suitable options requires surveys, feedback and open discussion not in a silo. However, different hybrid options for different companies.

On the other hand who cares if you have more than one job .. that doesn't breach any labour law, unless specifically prohibited by a particular contract of employment.

Imagine working from home, applied for maternity leave; spent the period and just one morning got management email welcoming you back to work, then you resume at home...

As a result of these changes taking place technological innovations are reflecting these choices. In other words whichever option you make would surely have it's economic value with it.

We all have the inert ability to learn, grow and develop. Don't be a victim of the negative consequences of the changing work model.

How ..?

If your employers adopted work from home policy and you haven't upgraded your digital skills, guess what happens ...

We at IDEA WORKSHOP are offering you work from home training to equip you with relevant skills at your pace and convenience. DM for details.

Your progress.

SKILLS, TECHNOLOGY AND COMPENSATION

#corporateleaders

SKILLS, TECHNOLOGY AND COMPENSATION

The shabby treatment of Immigrant workers in Qatar has drawn world's attention. These guys offered their services to prepare qatarworldcup2022 and were not adequately rewarded. Some of them skilled, others not but the shame's uncalled for.

This is coming after 'Future of Jobs Report, World Economic Forum' that about 50% of all employees will need reskiling by 2025, as the adoption of technology increases.

Quite pathetic you may say. Keep emotions out. See, it's either you reskill and be abreast with technology, or wither away or be treated shabbily.

Get this shocking fact straight. In the next Mundiale these unskilled workers would have no chance or services to offer. Reason: technology would have decimated the number of human contribution needed.

So lots of teaching to erase Tech-knowledge deficit. That brings to fore teaching jobs needed and that's why today, 5th October every year is celebrated as World's Teachers Day. Don't miss the opportunity to join our teaching group on this platform.

You can access digital skills acquisition training at IDEA WORKSHOP where we teach various niches that suits you, available to earn steady income in today's digital economy.

THE CONSTANCY OF CHANGE

#corporateleaders

Just got up, and not quite feeling to start my daily routines but a glance at the headlines jolted me. "Elon Musk displaces Jeff Bhezeos to become the world's richest person".

I thought that's expected. Who wouldn't foresee that, in these days when fluctuation in Bitcoins price makes you the richest in the morning and perhaps poorer in the evening. A lot of people have been the legendary number 1, but change kept them where you find them today. Then a snap. Later in the day, having read full report a few more issues came to my mind.

For instance unconfirmed media reports revealed that Jeff Bhezeos just had a divorce, which took about $43 billion alimony to his erstwhile spouse.

Wealth creation and philanthropy are close associates. The former is usually the products of enterprise, economy and heritage. While the latter is as a result of acts of benevolence due to sympathy for humanity, causes and or desire to change the status quo positively.

Virtually everyone likes to associate with individual and human progress. It satisfies human desires, as well as boosts egos and social status. In response society and communities celebrate the the wealthy, the rich and the affluent. These phenomena are corroborated by Hollywood, Nollywood, Bollywood and other 'wood' video films.

While some pursuit of wealth creation are strictly profit maximization endeavors, which don't allow dilution of that goal, others deploy some chunk of the wealth to humanitarian and developmental causes. This latter act is corporate social responsibility.

Acts of corporate social responsibility is like caring for those you met while ascending the ladder, because you might need them when you're descending.

Corporate institutions' response of competition is just natural. Everyone likes a jolly good friend. Every business entity as much as individuals, would like to be seen on the scoreboard of corporate social responsibility.

Therefore the convention of ranking them and their donors by Bloomsberg, Forbes, Fortune etc. emerged. The desire, the tempo and clamor to be recognized went high.

It has become part of our social life and for some a lifestyle to check 'whoruns' to find out who change has made the richest and watch for him/her to be replaced the next morning.

Today, it has become the norm for the richest persons to be evaluated according to their acts of corporate social responsibility, even though that affects their ranking. Perhaps that explains why Bill Gate's name has been missing for some time now.

WORLD TOURISM DAY

#corporateleaders

This year's World Tourism Day was celebrated on 27th September, 2022 with the theme 'Rethinking Tourism'.

Unless you're in an employment, for most of us taking a vacation doesn't sound real, especially when you have to travel with some luxuries.

But for quite a lot of people in entrepreneurship, vacation and tourism are part and parcel of the enterprise. Imagine working for two-thirds of the year and spend a third touring and enjoying life. It's possible. Unluck your entrepreneurial mindset.

It would shock you to discover why it takes almost a lifetime to start what mentorship should have achieved for you, if you had opted for it earlier. Afterall many successful entrepreneurs still have the urge to go for one mentorship program or the other.

Participate in our skills acquisition training that commences on 4th October, 2022 and discover how far you'd have gone.

TURNING ASUU STRIKE TO BLESSINGS

It seems abnormal to pass Nigeria's school calendar year without strike. But the victim's of that ridiculous phenomenon is vehemently resisting it. From barraacading Lagos-Ibadan expressway to airports across the nation NANS have been playing the devil's advocate.
