December Member of the Month
/What are you reading right now (or what is a go-to book you would recommend to others)?
I will have to recommend Primal Leadership by Daniel Goleman because it has helped understand and appreciate leaders with strong emotional intelligence, which is an essential skill for the relationship aspect of business.
It’s Sunday at 10 AM. Where are you?
I am in my apartment in University City, relaxing and reading The New Yorker magazine for leisure.
If you had an extra hour in the day, what would you do with it?
I will use that extra hour to organize. I am constantly gathering and/or receiving information from others in my day-to-day and do not always have enough time to organize that information for myself. I like to organize because it allows me to be more efficient and, in effect, do more, such as helping others.
What is something you’ve always wanted to do but haven’t done yet?
I have always wanted to go watch Manchester United soccer team play in-person. The day I decided to go to Manchester, England for a game will be a magical moment because I have been a fan since I was a kid growing up in Nigeria.
What is your best networking tip?
My best networking tip is to help others help you. I say that because we are all busy with our lives and obligations, but it is mutually beneficial to help others help you. For example, I have found that people appreciate friendly reminders on my requests that they may have forgot to ask me to remind them about.
