Team,
This morning, at 9.30am not more than half of you were in the office, when we were suppose to have a meeting at 9am all together!!!
This is not acceptable and you are all aware that official office hours start at 9am.
I am just litterally amazed about how many of you just do not care and are not willing to come on time to have a meeting with your CMO and presentation prepared specifically for you! That meeting occurs twice a month, and has been prepared for you, after you asked to know more about marketing and understand the vision of the company.
The meeting at 5pm was too late, and you had too much work to finish, ok we move the meeting to earlier in the morning, but now what????
How can it be that my team doesn't care about wishing to know more about Marketing??? These classes are designed for you to teach, to let you ask question about the company, the business overall, the other teams, to discuss about what they are doing, but also to teach you relevant skills that we know will help you to grow.
The fact that some of you don't really listen, challenge, or even dare coming makes me seriously your capacity and desire to grow. Outiside the marketing class, we are giving you the chance and the environment to grow, to develop, and to express yourself in a unique framework. This company will continue to grow and need overachievers to go to the next level, and my feeling is that some of us are just in their confort zone, not looking to improve, dont want to learn more, not ready to put the energy... We cannot work with this mentality, its not how we are going to suceed in this market, in this company.
We have the best people and smart minds in this company, and we all need to understand that we need to fight to deserve our position and that we have the opportunity to become tomorrow's manager of the biggest eCommerce in Asia, and soon the world !!!
So please reach out to me if you have any question, or topics you would like me or your team head to answer, and topics you would like to tackle during a bi weekly class, if your manager is a pain, or anything. Call, skype, line me anytime.
My goal is to make you grow with us, and support you as much as I can, but you are not ready to challenge and voice up what you want, I cannot help ! and it probably means you dont care, and dont want to grow. - we cannot be these people.
