Marijo Samneh Quote 3

What’s worse than tattling behind your colleagues’ back, is smiling at their faces when they are around.
Even worse, is when a manager, who is supposed to lead the team and manage the negativity at the workplace, is the one circulating the gossip.

Marijo Samneh Quote 4

Dear Managers,
Knowledge capital, and capabilities including the company’s human capital are the most important types of assets to build a competitive advantage. Therefore invest in your people, help them grow, and never make them feel they work for you.

Marijo Samneh Quote 6

By definition, favouritism refers to a situation where an individual in a leadership position demonstrates preferential treatment to one employee in comparison to others, for reasons unrelated to performance.

The effects of favouritism are detrimental in the workplace. It creates discouragement amongst employees because of the lack of correlation between hard work and success.

Favouritism becomes more offending and frustrating when the manager holds a secret (love) relationship with the protege.

In case you are one, just be aware that the whole company knows about you.
They don’t confront you, simply because you are higher in the hierarchy, not because they respect you!

Marijo Samneh Quotes 11

Most employees quit their jobs not because of their poor performance at work, but because of their managers. However, the responsibility doesn’t lie on direct managers alone, but rather on the poor management system of the firm that is not addressing the problems and concerns of its employees effectively.

Be the CEO your mother wanted you to marry!

As we celebrate women entrepreneurs’ day, I can’t help but think about the huge amount of pressure women still face to get married to someone successful, especially in this part of the world.

I still remember how my parents used to make fun of me because I studied a lot, specifically during the time I was conducting my master’s degrees.

They thought it was pointless for me to continue my education as I already got my law degree, and that it would be much better to focus on marrying a successful man to secure my future, let alone the society around me!

I only got married at the age of 31, and I did it not because of all the pressure I was put under, but because I was convinced that if it wasn’t him, it won’t be anyone else.

I always insisted on being my own source of strength, instead of looking for it somewhere else.

To all the young ladies reading this post, you can surely be that CEO they all wanted you to rely on. You can be the powerful person they all want you to hide behind.

She’s so lucky – by Marijo Samneh

“She is so lucky!

In reality, it looks more like:

🗣 She never quit, even when it got too challenging.
🤓 She worked late nights and long week ends to get closer to her goals.
⛹‍♀️ She overcame her limits, in the face of the people who doubted her.
💪 She learned from her mistakes instead of surrendering to them.
👩‍🎓 She invested in herself, especially in education.

Hard working women are often labeled as “lucky.”
However, why don’t we pause for a moment and think, “she’s the one who created her own luck.”
