Business lessons children can teach us!
What business lessons can one learn from the pigheaded
determination and stubbornness of children?
To every parent,
their child will forever remain the ‘Apple of their eyes’. Children bring about
a sense of completion in their lives. When my daughter was born in 2012, my joy
knew no bounds. Like most parents, I also have dreams and ambitions for her and
I often imagine myself following on from what my parents had done for me.
However, I have been quick to realize that almost none of it works with my
daughter. In fact, I've understood, that with the birth of a child it is not
time to teach, it is in fact, a time to learn. Over the years, I've observed in
her some traits which would make great sense in a professional
environment. Influencing is one such skill which has become a hallmark of
today’s children, no matter what their age. I remember growing up as a child,
my ability to influence anything or anyone was miniscule. However, even at the
tender age of four, my daughter understands how, why and with whom she will
manage to easily get her way.
