Standing On Business like Laila Johnson-Salami
A guide to stand on business like the Arise Tv news Reporter.
Heyyyyy
How are you doing? Sincerely?
Did you watch that video of Laila Johnson-Salami questioning David Umahi on the Lagos-Calabar Highway Project’s environmental impact assessment? how he tried to rudely dissuade her from asking her questions with the excuse of not hearing her clearly.
I am here to teach you on how you can and should stand On business like Laila in your workspace or with friends or family or even foes (side eye) because there is a fine line between giving people grace and letting them toy with you.
That video of Laila shows how you can maintain your stance and still be graceful when you are right. Maintaining your individuality; what makes you who you are, professionalism, and comportment in situations that would easily have deluded you from the intended points you are trying to pass across is important
Focus on the goals they say; the result, and make the process as seamless and clear as possible; if the other party decides not to understand, you will know, that is on them.
Do not be swayed by the jokes or distractions happening around you. Your questions and points might be stupid to other people but you know they are important questions that needs answering.
Finally, Do not keep or stay quiet. There is power in being seen and heard, and what do they say about quietness? A closed mouth never gets fed; Interpret this as you like.
Have a lovely weekend!
