Compliments of the season to you, my dear reader. Thank you for keeping up with my weekly articles on this platform. As the year runs to a close and gratitude fills the heart, reflections of what the new year could bring are perfectly in order.
This is because reflection is a power factor in charting better moves for greater outcomes. When done with the right mindset, reflections can reveal, revive, renew, rejig, reorder, etc.
For instance, let’s reflect on what I have done for the past 10 years, post my 14 years employment season. I have led a character development training and consulting organisation (RCV), catering to individuals and institutions’ unique growth needs.
Our team is super grateful for the mileage covered and milestones attained in the journey. As I reflected on our brand’s journey and the numerous customer engagements we have had, I found that something stood out exceptionally and recurringly too.
Reflect! Looking ahead, my team awaits your booking to offer you and your company professional support to build TRUST CAPITAL.
I thought to share that knowledge with forward-looking champs like you. This is in fact, RCV’s little success secret in the past one decade. Our decent success as a corporate brand over these years has essentially been defined by our trust networth across stakeholders circles.
Having also trained and consulted for over 50 organisations regularly within the period mentioned, our field knowledge revealed the same recurring success decima – that every enterprise is only as strong as the trust capital deficit or surplus it runs on.
This fact is also true for personal brands … that your trust capital remains the metric that determines immediate and long-term success, stability and sustainability; across your interactions with people and places.
This fact is also true for nations. For instance, if I were asked which is the most crucial asset that the political leadership class of Nigeria needs to urgently recover to renew hope, I would say – the public trust asset by being consistently committed to everything that impacts it.
Did you know that with every person you meet, every business you handle, every customer you serve, every association you identify with, every emotional energy you permit, you are either in trust deficit or surplus and that ultimately determine your fortunes?
If you have ever doubted what TRUST has got to do with anything or made the ‘careless choice’ to deplete rather than deliberately grow your account in peoples credibility bank, I am afraid, you can’t last in networks that should boost your networth in 2026.
My early publications in the new year will show you how to build trust with people and never lose it.
Closing thoughts:
*As a personal or corporate brand, you are either some networth richer or poorer in TRUST CAPITAL every day.
*Trust is both a priced commodity and a veritable medium of exchange.
*Trust is an essential success factor for any venture, whether big or small, local or global.
*Your positive or negative trust standing ultimately affects your fortunes – how you are perceived, reputed, and transacted with.
*Lack of trust will cost your business high employee attrition, employee disengagement, loss of existing clients, inability to get referrals to new ones, regulatory sanctions and penalties, failed business partnerships, loss of investment opportunities, weakened brand reputation, etc.
A wiseman said it is madness to keep doing the same things and expecting a different result. Reflect! Looking ahead, my team awaits your booking to offer you and your company professional support to build TRUST CAPITAL. We are the best you would find at social capital development.
Have a beautiful Yuletide.
