Anticipation: Proactive Responsibility
| |
| Waiting for the other shoe to drop is never a viable alternative. Using the full scope of our awareness to seek out and examine many of the possible consequences of our actions allows us to anticipate and avoid them. In business as in life, taking a proactive, responsible stance may not prevent the worst from happening, but it'll certainly allow us to be prepared for it. In other cases, preventive action can allow us to anticipate — and to avoid — costly mistakes. |

Content for Africa by Africans
| |
| About 3 months ago I attended the ICTExpo organized by ICTVillage, the event was quite interesting with a wide range of presentations including one from Google. It was during that event that the permanent secretary in the ministry of information and communication, Dr.Bitange Ndemo made a very important point concerning content, he said “the biggest challenge we have right now is the issue of locally produced content..we need content providers..”, once he finished a lady from South Africa informed him that they had a large amount of content from the space observatory which they were willing to offer for free, her offer was eagerly accepted. I left the event racking my brain over the need for quality local content and how I could play a major part of that process. |

Science of Staffing: 3 Common Staffing Mistakes and How to Avoid Them
| |
| A true solution will usually only present itself after all miscalculations, misinterpretations and misjudgments of the mistake have been properly identified and (GULP!) accounted for. Knowing the most common mistakes on a promotional event is important, but it’s only half the battle for an event marketing agency. Learning from it is the other. Lucky for you, some other poor schlub has already muddled his way onto this list (shut it)- so you can jump straight to the solution instead of going through the grief and embarrassment of losing the respect of your favorite client.
That said, please allow me to digress to a few common delusions... |

Guest Post: From Nateedmondson.com

| I don’t want to publicly criticize anyone in particular, so I’m going to try and be careful with this explanation, but the reason I started thinking about this whole “God thing” idea is because of a recent use of the phrase that I thought seemed a little skeptical. There was an event that had been planned for months and about a week or so before a few details hadn’t been worked out yet. Thankfully everything ended up working out and the event was a success. After the event was underway and all systems were functional one of the leaders of this event made the statement, “man.. it’s just really a God thing. We had a lot of last minute details fall through on us and I’m just so pleased God worked everything out to his glory..” |
