How to get a pay raise without licking shoes
|
If you have a boss. Or if you are a boss. ​ You know what moves your ass, right? ​ You know it perfectly. ​ “No trouble”. That’s it. ​ So sad, and so true. ​ “Don’t bother me. Don’t put me in trouble. Over average results, but not too much, otherwise, I don’t know what objectives, bonuses, etc. discuss with you… My biggest fear?

Up to you. ​ I have a few ideas. You can pick up my brain in the link below... Only until 31 January.

It’s about a PPP that never even made it to the starting line because the government tried to dump so much unmanageable risk on the private sector that the private sector simply said: “Good luck, amigos.” And walked away. Welcome to the Nairobi–Thika Highway PPP attempt (early...
I have a few face-to-face mentees and they have 3 types of problems: You say you became an entrepreneur to be free… but you work more hours than ever.You say you want to help… but you can barely help yourself.You say you’re chasing freedom… but you’ve built your own cage. I’m sure it also sounds familiar to you.And I also know it’s not your fault. It’s the fault of all the bullsh*t promises they sold you:That entrepreneurship would make you free.That you just need more followers.That what...
Helping a transport agency last week, I reviewed the number of people that they would need to manage a project. Coming from the private sector… Coming from PPP projects where every dollar optimized and saved is a dollar for the investors… You can imagine what my feedback was. But there is also a fundamental reason. And it’s not just based on my personal experience, but science. Too many people and you achieve less. It’s like putting 20 painters to paint a room. It won’t end well… They’ll be...
