If you don't know whom you're
then it doesn't matter much who you meet
cause these people don't even recognize you in long term
what it matters is how we able to perform in various situations

Oh that is not true. The moment you go up to them and stay humble yourself - they can tell that you are genuine and will be willing to share. Many successful people are not selfish

This is serious kopitiam

I know a school mate in politics, who will know him. But I don't see any value in doing so. Others might but not me

Yes hence there’s seriously zero benefit in knowing someone.

That's how one stand out in competitive world.
It's easier to find a job if you know someone who can refer you into the company
It's easier to raise funding for your startup if know founders who have connections with VC
It's easier to land business deals if you know the decision makers in the client company
and so many more...

the tricky thing is
the person has to intuitively know what another person wanted before even saying much, that takes a lot of infield interactions

I always feel being sociable person is a rare element in today era

By the way you reply, can tell you are facing that problem

There's no guessing game, one just need to ASK. You either get a rejected or a yes

I'm actually facing this issue

as Sales person

boss expectation and direction really conflict one another

First, he ask me to guess (hypothesis). Then when i presented, he doubt my information and ask multiple question.
Then he ASK me to try ask the customer for confirmation

When I ask, get the confirmation. My boss (confronted) why you go ask these question from customer, you should know by now bla bla bla.

I was like, i dont know this customer at all since I first time handle it, hence no deep interaction. Plus I dont fully grasp the whole process of my boss sales idea

so my manager assist me by giving tip, whatever you do, dont share with your boss during presentation (just said it is confirm by customer) but funny thing is, other colleague doing same task but somehow it is accepted.

hence the downhill demotivated started.  smile.gif

You just confirmed that by asking question - customer answer you truthfully.

Your boss problem is a separate matter. That's a separate skill in managing your boss
