THE "GETTING TO A YES" SERIES: WHAT'S A YES?

THE 

"GETTING 

TO A YES" 

SERIES: 

WHAT'S

A 

YES?!!

Hi Peeps,

I guess you are doing great and making the best of the sixth month that's six days gone.

It's a brand new month with a brand new series, where I get to share my experience managing people on projects,

The "Getting To A Yes" Series holds some insights for my audience especially if you have to liaise with people from time to time in the bid to get your job done. In other words, getting the job done requires getting to a yes.

I understand we sometimes work with unreasonably difficult people, but for now my goal is to help you see how best you can push to get the job done, working with different (but reasonable and ideal) people, without becoming a tyrant on one end, or a 'yes man' on the other.

I will start by first specifying the folks you mostly need a yes from, then subsequently address what yes means to them and how to get a yes from them.

Please come with me 👇


#1: 

THE

SPONSOR


Let's just call them; The Boss.

And here is how you identify them:

✍️ They write the vision

📖 Make it plain

💰 Authorise the cheques, and

✈️ Make project managers like myself run 

😄👣💪

I have something to tell you about the boss in my next post. Please watch out!


#2: 

THE

INFLUENCER 


Believe me when I say; beyond the project sponsor, there are other folks whose opinions you shouldn't joke with on a project.

Top on the list is the spouse of a married client, and the principle remains, whether you are working on a common space where they both have interest, or otherwise.

There are a host of other folks that belong to this category and I will be glad to tell you how to get them on board in a fortnight.


#3: 

THE

EXECUTOR


The word Executor is a legal terminology except in this case where it is borrowed to mean those you assign the job to administer and maximise resources for a project on your behalf.

Folks in this category can either fine-tune or dent the reputation you have taken years to build, so it's definitely important we talk about them.

My last post on this series will therefore address issues around their interests and motivation. I just can't wait to get on this, the same way I can't wait to have you bring me onboard your next project.

Let the journey begin now and here 👇

THE "SECOND CHANCE" SERIES 2: BEAUTIFUL EXCHANGE!!!

THE  "SECOND  CHANCE"  SERIES 2: BEAUTIFUL EXCHANGE!!! Hello and Happy Easter Peeps, It's that time of the year when we remember and celebrate Divinity taking a second chance on humanity. Coincidentally, the essence of Easter celebration is in complete sync with The "Second Chance" series, where I seek to help my audience take a second chance on some crucial elements within their spaces. My last post aimed at helping you resolve dysfunctional layout, and I'm quite confident you have gained some insights on different shapes of spaces and how to best utilize them. Now let's have a look at what I love to call the "beautiful exchange", a concept of how you can reuse worn out or 'out of fashion' items in your space, making them more appealing, and having a positive impact on your space. I should mention as I proceed that there are several ideas to achieving beautiful exchanges, however I would categorize them into 3 aspects namely 👇 #1: FAC...

  THE "ABOUT THIS TIME"  SERIES 2: THE SEASONS YOU KNEW  NOTHING  ABOUT! !! Hi there, Trust you are doing great and making the best of this summer. As for me, I'm trying my best to connect with my audience beyond the scope of my job as an interior designer and project manager by referencing cycles of seasons that spans 2 decades of my life, ranging from year 2004 to 2024. Hence, The "About This Time" Series  Going by my age, the seasons of my life you knew nothing about would likely exceed 3 decades (if you are not a relative, a friend or a colleague), but then I should ask myself; at what points did I become conscious enough to identify seasons of my life and their peculiarities? Looking in hindsight, the answer would be at points where I was plagued with BOREDOM, and here is what I mean 👇   #2004: FROM  BOREDOM TO EXPOSURE  About This Time 20 years ago 💭🤔 Photo: Ayodeji (left) | Yours sincerely (right) 🙈 Location: College of Technology, Yaba...

THE "ABOUT THIS TIME"  SERIES 4: THE SEASONS I LOOK  FORWARD TO!!! Hi folks, It's good to be here again, and I guess you are having an awesome time this summer. As a way to bond with you, my exceptional audience, I launched The "About This Time" series, reflecting on cycles of seasons of my life that spans from year 2004 to 2024. I hope it's been worth following. Below are nuggets of insights gained from my previous posts on this series: ✅ Boredom can become the tool with which we TRANSITION into a better version of ourselves, provided we are with the right people in the right environment. ✅ As we go higher in life, chances are high we put on a magnifying lens on our achievements and accolades. There is a call to action for us to look back and appreciate the days of LITTLE BEGINNINGS. Now as I delve into the seasons I look forward to, let's have a look at recent events that serves as indicators to my expectations for the future 👇 #2024: SEASONS ARE IN ...
