INSPIREDBYGLORY: 10 REASONS WHY YOU AREN’T GETTING ANY RESULTS FROM NETWORKING

Its been ages since I recorded my last vlog, which is why I am super excited to bring to your attention that within the next 10 days I will be releasing a series of vlogs all aimed at helping you up your networking game. I had so much fun recording the videos, they had to beg me to leave the venue..LOL.

In the first video I decided to tackle an issue many career women have when it comes to networking…the lack of results. It’s like when you are on a diet, eating leaves and bananas all day, only to check the scale a week later and you have added 1kg! Y-E-K-P-A! Well just like dieting, there is a right and wrong way to Network and I share it all in this video…all for your viewing pleasure.

Please try and find the time to watch this series of videos as they will only be available for a limited time. You can watch the first video by clicking here

INSPIRED BY GLORY, BUBEZ CENTRE PARTNER TO EMPOWER WOMEN AT MY 2017 GOALS SUMMIT

The notion that women do not support or empower women is now a thing of the past. On February 4, 2017, Inspired by Glory- a personal development and lifestyle platform for career women and female entrepreneurs and Bubez Centre for Women Empowerment, a platform committed to reducing poverty levels among Nigerian women through enhancing productivity and collaboration, partnered to provide a premier goals setting seminar which aimed to help participants create actionable goals and roadmaps for building fulfilled lives.

The seminar had in attendance female entrepreneurs and professional career women who learnt techniques on how to position their businesses and professional lives. During the workshop participants also learnt how to set Specific, Measurable, Attainable and Time based i.e. SMART Goals and where equipped with the know-how on how to remain focused, audacious and inspired towards success throughout the year.

The Goals Summit is a yearly event put together by Inspired by Glory Founder, Glory Edozien, who says, “more women need to be empowered with the tools to succeed. Setting yearly goals and giving women the tools to create actionable steps is the starting point of our empowerment efforts. This is why it was important for us to collaborate with the Bubez Centre for Women Empowerment which has since had a long standing reputation of empowering women.

The Bubez Centre for Women Empowerment was founded by MD and CEO of Bubez Foods, Ijeoma Ndukwe-Egwuronu. A dynamic and highly-sought- after business strategist who, after just a few years of starting her business in her kitchen, now records a 343 per cent increase in sales of their flagship product Bubez Pap, since the factory opening in June 2015.

Attendees of the workshop also expressed that the aims and objectives of the workshop had been met. One participant noted that the workshop was filled with relevant content and another remarked that she was glad she made the required investment to attend the workshop, as it was a great decision.

GLORY EDOZIEN : HOW TO MAKE A NIGERIAN MAN HAPPY

So before I proceed with the usual banter that accompanies my vlogs, I guess I should say two things. The first is, Happy Valentine’s Day! May love always be in your life!

The second is a bit of a confession. Although this is a love/relationship styled vlog, I actually recorded it MONTHS ago but for some reason never released. And given we are smack bang in the season of love, it seemed appropriate to do so now.

This video is actually a sequel to an earlier vlog “How to make a Nigerian woman Happy” which you can watch here (link- https://youtu.be/WmFbOzo9snI). To create this video, I called quite a number of male friends and I was surprised by how simple and quite frankly ‘basic’ they claimed their requirements for happiness were.

 

As you watch this video, remember that every relationship is different because the people who make up these relationships, differ in backgrounds, character and many other things, so it is important to first understand your partner. It also always helpful to actually have an upfront conversation- ask him or her- what makes you happy? How can we both make our relationship, marriage or friendship a happy one?

So do you think you make your man happy? Please feel free to share some tips and tricks in the comments section or email me on glory@inspiredbyglory.com and if you haven’t done so already, please be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel @inspiredbyglory. Catch ya later!

Thank you!

See you next week!
