YOU ARE A CEO, RULER & LEADER


It’s your place in the world; it’s your life. Go on and do all you can with it, and make it the life you want to live (Mae Jemison)


You are the CEO and Leader of your life.
A Chief Executive Officer (CEO) is the ultimate chief-decision-maker, manager, leader and the highest ranked individual in any company who makes work decisions concerning the company vision, mission, direction, determines how resources are managed, business operations, how to overcome failure, competition and ensures adequate communication between corporate teams and board of directors. Like the many successful entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs and leaders who champion their path, replace the ‘company’ CEO perspective with your ‘personal career or life’.

You are a LEADER-  the person who leads thyself, or commands a group, organisation, or country
1) Leadership is not about titles, positions, or flow charts. It is about one life influencing another (John C. Maxwell)
2) Leaders instill in their people a hope for success and a belief in themselves. Positive leaders empower people to accomplish their goals (Unknown)
3) The true mark of a leader is the willingness to stick with a bold course of action — an unconventional business strategy, a unique product-development roadmap, a controversial marketing campaign-even as the rest of the world wonders why you’re not marching in step with the status quo. In other words, real leaders are happy to zig while others zag. They understand that in an era of hyper-competition and non-stop disruption, the only way to stand out from the crowd is to stand for something special (Bill Taylor)

                                  
It is clear to see that as the CEO of your career or life, you are the ultimate chief-decision-maker, rule-maker, deal-breaker, manager, leader and the highest ranked individual in your world. You make life or career decisions concerning career vision, mission, direction, and determines what to study. Where to work, in what sector, how personal or work resources are accumulated, managed, operated, and how to overcome failure. Therefore, overcome comfort zone and build confidence to win through innovation. Ensure adequate communication between your career team and board of directors/advisors which can initially include your family, friends, partners, like minds, investors. There are little rules, create your unique mission/system, actualise your destiny.
Hence, as your chief rule-maker, you now have a blank page to become the leader and CEO of your life. This is possible even if starting all over again after temporary unemployment, or whether you are a business owner or employee, create your career. Don’t deliberately hurt anyone just follow your own rules. Learn and develop a strong set of professional enterprise and vocational skills that enhances your competitiveness at work, in business or the job marketplace to negotiate more favourable terms. Understand that intrapreneurship and entrepreneurship skills enable employability skills, which facilitates trade or YOU as the Leader, Ruler and CEO of your life.
