The truth is, your zone of genius is where you are unconsciously competent. Which means getting clarity on where you find things the most easy, because there are a ton of people out there who that’s not easy for. Your zone of genius is where you can make the most impact and also where you can make the most money. Here are 5 things you can do to discover your zone of genius: 1.) Set Aside Time for Reflection Each Day 2.) Conduct Lots of Experiments and Collect Data Points 3.) Create a Growth Environment 4.) Become a Producer 5.) Embrace Non-Linear Thinking #innovation #zoneofgenius

Sooner or later, all businesses, even the most successful will run out of room to grow. The potential consequences are dire for any organization that fails to reinvent itself in time. Companies fail to reinvent themselves not necessarily because they are bad at fixing what’s broken, but because they wait too long. Here are 3 reasons to invest in reinventing your brand: 1- Brand marketing builds credibility: In today’s market, brand credibility is your competitive advantage. People buy products they like from companies they know and trust. Think Apple, Amazon or Starbucks. 2- Brand marketing attracts investors: Founders and business leaders are constantly looking for financiers to support their growth and exit strategies. Investors view a company as a whole before investing, not just its product or products. 3- Brand marketing engages customers: In today’s digital era, B2B buyers are now as empowered as consumers. CIOs are not the only ones making the ultimate buying decisions, and how businesses interact with vendors is also changing. #brand #branding #smb #enterprise #design #story #marketing #digitalmarketing

We gathered some best practices for that #WFH life and want to share them with you! 1.) Design Your Space - Carve out a dedicated space that you only use for work. Preferably with natural light and a door, so you can separate your work from your home life when the workday is done. It's also tax deductible! 2.) Project Professionalism - Dress as if you were still working in someone else's office. If you're doing video calls, consider having a clean dedicated area for them, or at least hanging a backdrop so people aren't distracted by home-office clutter. 3.) Manage Your Distractions - One winning strategy is simply to accept that you'll never be 100% productive. That makes it easier to be in control of your "mind-wandering" time at work, and keep it under control. 4.) Give Yourself Routine - The sooner you set parameters for the working day the better. Know where you’re going to work: this might change from morning to evening depending on how light shifts around your home office – let’s call it a "hoffice." 5.) Prioritize: Write a To Do list - To Do lists sound like they were invented by a cruel master, but they’re the key to self-motivation! Take 10 minutes before you sleep every night to make the next day’s list. #WFH2020 #QuarantineLife #workbetter #worktrends
