Teach to Teach; the art of sharing knowledge

I shall give you a tip on engaging more with your team and your business partners.

What do you know me for? The Maldives? Helping you in marketing? Business ideas? or Writing?

Over the years, I understood that experience in trade means little to me moving forward with time.

I started writing business articles first it was a hobby to keep my ideas fresh and my mind busy.
Later with time I was a trainer, I learned to share my skills, my knowledge, and my discipline with my team members. I made a syllabus and helped them grasp the best I could with knowledge from product to offers to sales.
I replicated the same principle to my business partners, even if you did not sell the product I would equip you with the tools to sell it. Train the team with information with confidence to market the product.
I proceeded to write a Novice Selling Guide for the Maldives and sharing with my business partners. I turned this into a habit sharing information; always tried to empower them, maybe it is business, the skills of sales and marketing, or the products I sell.

If you know me, I have a blog for the business that entails the destination I sell, a fresh set of eyes on ideas for selling, entering new or emerging markets, being an entrepreneur, HR, and management styles.
My LinkedIn is always filled with information that you can improve your skills, and gain knowledge.

Knowledge sharing became my thing. Every interesting article I read was shared. Every business idea or marketing thought process was blogged. Even certificate I did, I helped others do the same and gain the same level of expertise.

I am never selfish in sharing my knowledge with anyone, my business partners, or my friends.
Over the years my business partners saw more value in what I do because I do it passionately and I always provide them with help and assistance not only in the products I sell but in any problem, in general, they face in business.

I learn the power of teaching someone, empowering them to strive for more.

Your want it to sounds like more of a business point of view: the more you equip your partners in what you do, what you sell they more confident they become in you and your products. When they make money, is when you make money.

I shall always be open to ideas, you can always discuss any product anything with me as always I will be open ears.

Never be selfish in business or life, learn to teach, if anyone is searching for talent to join their team help them, anyone is seeking a job lend a hand help if a business you think more awareness with the public and you know can do it if you learn a skillset and you think someone else too can benefit encourage them.

Always remember that not all returns on investments are about money.

Let's learn the art to teach.

Cheers!

Lessons learnt being a trainer

I am going to write short stories of experiences I have learned from my life personally and professionally :

I was a trainer for the entire team who handled or sold the product. Being a trainer at the start was an incredible challenge, but we slowly developed a methodology so that it could be re-implemented by any new trainer.

I used to train new recruits in batches and once in a way my superior would check up on the status of their training as an informal update.
One time there was a batch of recruits who were slow, so I was pacing out the training process to fit their needs.

Randomly as always, my superior checked up on the status of the training and I mentioned we were behind schedule.

Now pay attention to the next part of the story very carefully.

My superior asked me "Liswith have you ever gone to school?". 

I replied rather annoyed, "Yes". 

My superior asked me "Do teachers slow the syllabus midterm or go as per schedule till the end of the semester even if there were weak students?". 

I replied, "No, teachers assist the weaker students but they stick to the syllabus and schedule". 

My superior asked, "Then what should weak students be doing?". 

I replied, "Stay after school get help, or do more revision". 

My superior replied, "Exactly, they have to stay and ask for help or when they get home to revise their lessons".

The importance of this story is that deadlines and timelines are not supposed to be shifted or missed.
While the duties of the company are to train you and assist you, it is yours to put the time to improve your skills for your job as well.

I hope reading this sparked your mind.

The Maldives - The Sun Will Shine Again

I am writing this not a travel agent but as a fellow traveler.

When travel is ready from the world the sun shall definitely shine again to the Maldives.

I have been selling the Maldives for over 8 years now. Visited many resorts the beautiful nation has to offer.

Yes, the ocean is turquoise and crystal clear. The beaches are filled with white sands. The sky has never been starrier.

This is not only why Maldives would be the ideal place to travel POST COVID.

Maldives is the ONLY holiday destination I have been to. Why do I say ONLY? What is a holiday for you?

A time table, a hop on hop off bus, someone telling you when the bus shall stop for bathroom breaks, or leave you when late for your tour? Do these signify as a holiday to you?

Oh my god, I hate stress on my holidays. I hate to be told a time table on my holiday. The Maldives is the holiday destination because it has no time table, no one calling your room and saying when you can do what.

You make your own time table; You want to sleep in till late? Want to wander the beach in the middle of the night with your partner? Want to go for a swim at 6am? Want to drink champagne all day by the pool? Want to go snorkeling? Want to read a book by the beach?

Did any of these seem stressful to you? and remember none of these came with a time table.

Maldives shall always be the ONLY destination in the world to have ALL imaginable hotel chains "Under One Roof"

Social distancing post-COVID; the Maldives is One Island One Resort. Water Villas or Beach Villas are built further away from each other for utmost privacy (social distancing).

Resort islands are not highly populated like Resorts built in cities. No strangers or visitors randomly come by your Resort unlike in city hotels/resorts globally.

I fell in love with the Maldives years back, to me, it is my holiday destination and my second home.

This is a warning; remember once you travel to the Maldives, no destination will ever be able to replace that holiday.

It is irreplaceable, unforgettable, memories that never shall wash away.

The Maldives - The Sun Will Shine Again

Yours Truly
