New Year Greeting and Wishes to you all from Value Added. One of the agendas for businesses this year to start focussing on understanding Corporate Reporting better to understand and appreciate Standards, Certifications, Compliances and Regulations better. Its increasingly becoming a connected world and hence Knowledge Teams should have more knowledge on both Financial and Non Financial Systems Reporting to understand the Regulations, Standards , certifications, Compliance, Governance Structures better. Corporate Reporting calls for multidisciplinary teams - be it in Audit, Assurance or Consulting World. This inter-disciplnary and multidisciplinary focus is missing in these corridors. Experts are No longer Experts with Limited Knowledge . Time to reskill, upskill, acquire new skills to bring Value to the Knowledge Space.

I am always thankful to my very first boss... Sir Olan - he hired me not because of me physically not qualified, but because he believed that I can do the job. During the interview (way back 2004): Sir Olan said: "The position your applying for is somewhat like a Hotel Front desk Officer, most Front Desk Personnel are about 5'4 to about 5'6 in height for female, you are not even 5' tall, what can you do about it? (feels like I am sinking on my chair knowing I might not gonna be hired again because I lack the height)" So I answered him (with confidence, as if): "I can still do the job even if I am not that tall! (I am 4'11 by the way), I can wear high heels while working!" Sir Olan smiled and said, "I like your answer"! And this is my very 1st formal job. I was bothered by my height before, I was not hired by most of the Retail Store I applied for, because; one, I lack the height requirement (which is a requirement before by the way) and two, I do not know how to put cosmetics, (gosh! I do not like putting heavy cosmetics on my face, and good cosmetics (before) are expensive) Below statement is true.

This year was a journey. I tried my best, gave it my all, and pushed through moments I never thought I’d face. I cried when things got tough, lost battles I hoped to win, but also tasted the sweetness of victory in ways that surprised me. Through it all, one thing stands out: I achieved success. Not just in accomplishments, but also in growth. I learned a lot about myself, about life, and about resilience. Every experience, be it joyful or painful, shaped me into someone stronger, wiser, and more prepared for what’s ahead of me. As this year comes to a close, I’m filled with gratitude, not just for the wins, but for the lessons in the losses too. They taught me patience, perspective, and how important perseverance isq. Looking forward, I carry hope. Hope that the coming year will bring better experiences, greater opportunities, and moments of joy I can’t yet imagine. But no matter what it holds, I know I’ll face it with the strength and wisdom this year has given me. May the new year be filled with growth, peace, and abundant blessings.

To a New Year #2025

New Year, New Goals, New Accountability ???? The other day, I was listening to BBC Radio One, and they were discussing whether we should replace the word "resolution" with "intention" for the New Year. Their reasoning? The word "resolution" supposedly carries negative connotations, especially if you don’t achieve what you’ve set out to do. Using "intention" was seen as a way to avoid feelings of shame or failure. Honestly, I didn’t agree at all. While I understand the importance of self-compassion, I think there’s value in accountability. If we don’t achieve something within our control, shouldn’t we reflect, take responsibility, and use it as a lesson to grow? ???? Life will always throw curveballs ???, and sometimes external factors make our goals unattainable, which is understandable. But when the outcome is in our hands, it’s important to own our failures and learn from them, rather than rebranding them to avoid discomfort. Growth doesn’t come from blame-shifting; it comes from resilience and taking action. ??? So, here’s to 2025 resolutions. Not intentions. Resolutions that push us to be better, take responsibility, and learn along the way. Let’s make it a year of accountability and progress! ????

There are moments that I did enjoy in sales. And I get it, we're all in the business of "sales". But the amount of bullshit I wrote in CRM's must be hilarious to read for anyone who picked up my orphan accounts. I was boldly honest in some of my notes that customers would take offense to if they ever turned the screen and read it. I applaud those that chose to be in sales and make a living of it. Some are absolutely incredible, but most (like 95% of you) should move on. Customers know what they want. The only thing I would ever say when making a purchase - ask for the rookie/newest person to sell to you. They're still in their hero moment because they actually don't know what the fuck they are selling, they got no training and were thrown to the wolves. They will actually bend over backwards for you (instead of the ones that try so hard to bend you forward). Buying should be a great moment, for both parties vs. the potential "feeling ill" or having to shower because most sales people leave you with a bad taste and horrible experience. Get educated about the purchase, stop tire kicking for the joys of it. You're wasting other peoples time, especially your own (trust me you'll never get that back). To anyone reading my CRM notes, I hope you get a kick out of it, and if you manage to actually sell them something (you'll know who) I tip my cap to you.

If you are thinking about your choice, take advantage of my experience. Contacting Olga Silverman was one of my best decisions of the past year. First of all, my expectations were completely met. I started building new networking on LinkedIn from absolute zero and got the results I wanted. Second, all my decisions were supported by great expertise and I got all my questions answered. Thirdly, the business- and comfortable atmosphere, adequate emotional contact and feeling supported every step of the way was an added value for me. In summary: best recommendation and huge respect. Don't think twice, you have already found the best option. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, but my recommendation will not change, Olga Silverman is the best.
