New Year, New Goals, New Accountability 🎯💪 The other day, I was listening to BBC Radio One, and they were discussing whether we should replace the word "resolution" with "intention" for the New Year. Their reasoning? The word "resolution" supposedly carries negative connotations, especially if you don’t achieve what you’ve set out to do. Using "intention" was seen as a way to avoid feelings of shame or failure. Honestly, I didn’t agree at all. While I understand the importance of self-compassion, I think there’s value in accountability. If we don’t achieve something within our control, shouldn’t we reflect, take responsibility, and use it as a lesson to grow? 🤔📈 Life will always throw curveballs 🌪️, and sometimes external factors make our goals unattainable, which is understandable. But when the outcome is in our hands, it’s important to own our failures and learn from them, rather than rebranding them to avoid discomfort. Growth doesn’t come from blame-shifting; it comes from resilience and taking action. 🚀✨ So, here’s to 2025 resolutions. Not intentions. Resolutions that push us to be better, take responsibility, and learn along the way. Let’s make it a year of accountability and progress! 🎉💼

New Year Greeting and Wishes to you all from Value Added. One of the agendas for businesses this year to start focussing on understanding Corporate Reporting better to understand and appreciate Standards, Certifications, Compliances and Regulations better. Its increasingly becoming a connected world and hence Knowledge Teams should have more knowledge on both Financial and Non Financial Systems Reporting to understand the Regulations, Standards , certifications, Compliance, Governance Structures better. Corporate Reporting calls for multidisciplinary teams - be it in Audit, Assurance or Consulting World. This inter-disciplnary and multidisciplinary focus is missing in these corridors. Experts are No longer Experts with Limited Knowledge . Time to reskill, upskill, acquire new skills to bring Value to the Knowledge Space.

As we step into 2025, it's a great time to reflect on our past achievements and set ambitious goals for the year ahead.

Whether it’s advancing in your career, starting a new project, or nurturing meaningful relationships, every small step counts towards a larger vision. Consider setting SMART goals—Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound—to keep yourself motivated throughout the year. Collaborating with others can also amplify our efforts, so don’t hesitate to reach out, network, and foster new connections. Remember, each day is an opportunity to learn and grow. Let’s celebrate our journeys and support one another as we strive for success in 2025! What are your goals for the new year? 🌟 #SeeBeyondRiseAbove #PersistentSystems #HappyNewYear2025

There are moments that I did enjoy in sales. And I get it, we're all in the business of "sales". But the amount of bullshit I wrote in CRM's must be hilarious to read for anyone who picked up my orphan accounts. I was boldly honest in some of my notes that customers would take offense to if they ever turned the screen and read it. I applaud those that chose to be in sales and make a living of it. Some are absolutely incredible, but most (like 95% of you) should move on. Customers know what they want. The only thing I would ever say when making a purchase - ask for the rookie/newest person to sell to you. They're still in their hero moment because they actually don't know what the fuck they are selling, they got no training and were thrown to the wolves. They will actually bend over backwards for you (instead of the ones that try so hard to bend you forward). Buying should be a great moment, for both parties vs. the potential "feeling ill" or having to shower because most sales people leave you with a bad taste and horrible experience. Get educated about the purchase, stop tire kicking for the joys of it. You're wasting other peoples time, especially your own (trust me you'll never get that back). To anyone reading my CRM notes, I hope you get a kick out of it, and if you manage to actually sell them something (you'll know who) I tip my cap to you.

As 2024 comes to a close, I find myself reflecting on a year that has been nothing short of transformative. Together, we tackled challenges that once seemed impossible and made progress that continues to inspire me. This past year, I had the privilege of collaborating with some of the most brilliant and driven minds. These interactions—often born of candid, meaningful conversations—deepened my perspective and reminded me of the sheer power of connection. When we share ideas and knowledge freely, we drive real, impactful change. On the personal front, 2024 also brought significant milestones for my family that reminded me of the importance of balance. Watching my daughter grow more independent after her first year of boarding school, guiding my son through his exciting transition into secondary school, and savoring my youngest child’s last year of primary school all reinforced for me how vital it is to nurture the relationships that ground us. These moments inspired me to carry this sense of balance into my professional life as well. Looking ahead to 2025, I know there will be challenges—but also incredible opportunities. The finance landscape continues to evolve rapidly. With it come hurdles that demand creativity, resilience, and bold thinking. I am optimistic that, through innovation and collaboration, we can uncover solutions that not only transform our industry but also create meaningful change in the lives of many. More than ever, we must commit to fostering an inclusive environment. Diversity is not just a metric but a force of strength that drives better solutions and broader perspectives. It's on all of us to champion initiatives that empower underrepresented groups in finance and ensure pathways for the next generation of leaders are accessible and abundant. 2025 is our chance to think differently, collaborate boldly, and rise to new heights. Together, we have the potential to spark change—not just within our organizations but in the larger world we influence. Here’s to a year filled with innovation, connection, and purpose. A year where we go beyond imagining a brighter future—where we actively work to create it. Wishing you all a hopeful, inspired 2025! 🎉

If you are thinking about your choice, take advantage of my experience. Contacting Olga Silverman was one of my best decisions of the past year. First of all, my expectations were completely met. I started building new networking on LinkedIn from absolute zero and got the results I wanted. Second, all my decisions were supported by great expertise and I got all my questions answered. Thirdly, the business- and comfortable atmosphere, adequate emotional contact and feeling supported every step of the way was an added value for me. In summary: best recommendation and huge respect. Don't think twice, you have already found the best option. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me, but my recommendation will not change, Olga Silverman is the best.
