Mental models you can use to appear like a genius

Be better than before, than yesterday...






Using mental models, can lead you to be strategic thinker and lead you to financial success

Be better than before, than yesterday...

The author  thinks in terms of chess most of the time, prescribes these  chess moves as mental models:

How to become a more strategic thinker 1 - Control the Center just like in boxing. This derives from chess. E.g knight controls 8 square at the center, But only 2 at the corner. 2- The True Value of a Piece Synergy. A powerful piece and a pawn in diagonal can be very strong 3 - Position Over Submission 4- The Initiative - The one who is the leader makes the other reactive is weaker. He is follower
5. The Hardest Move to Find - sometimes this is resting, retreating 6- How to go even deeper

Having a better mindset  is a key to success.   Peter Senge in 5th Discipline says that.

Difficulties in training staff what are root causes, and solution

Be better than before, than yesterday...






My official rank now is a consultant for the company this post has established and been running for the past 42 years.  This post turned over the management to children and because of difficulty with child rearing and lack of constant communication, morale, output have been down.   

This post was forced to get out of retirement, put on the boots and work.

The first aspect that I looked into  was hiring, orientation.  Last Sunday I went to an outlet in the north to do the training.  Lo difficulties, despite the claim that  the staff (two 2 and 3 years tenure had been trained)

     1.  The chief at the outlet did not read the memo organizing the  orientation
     2  The staff whom I instructed to relay and asked to have the boss call me while on travel failed 
           to respond if she had called saying she was busy
     3.  The same staff came late (at 7:30 instead of 7:00 as agreed upon)
     4.  The orientation was used as an alibi not to sell and do other pending jobs, despite it being 
           scheduled so as not to interfere with daily work
     5.   The team building was not done on time, and if done a different one was made.
     6.  The exams were done haphazardly as if to get by

    So clearly there: is at least

    1.  Communication problem
    2.  Attitude problems
    3.  Problem of focus
    4.  Problem of acceptance 
    5.  Loss of morale:  pride in self, company
    6l  Lack or determination, forcefulness and hard work
