Do Businessmen Make Good Politicians

Do businessmen make good politicians?

Whereas many politicians who have little or no business experience, don’t know the best way of going about negotiating international trade deals or treaties.

3. Businessmen are great public speakers

In order to become a successful politician an individual needs to be able to confidently speak infront of large groups of people.

Why may a businessman make a poor politician:

1. A businessman may care more about his own ego than the people who has been elected to serve

One reason why some businessmen may not make good politicians is that some businessmen is that some businessmen are ego orientated and will become politicians not to serve the interests of the people who they have been elected to serve but to raise their own profile.

Businessmen who make great politicians get into politics for the right reason and are passionate about giving back to society by using the skills which they have accumulated as businessmen, as politician. As many of the skills which an individual acquires as a businessman can be easily transferred to a career in politics.

2. Some businessmen who become politicians may have conflicts of interests

However, Spacey’s enviable acting career was recently tarnished when reports started to surface that Spacey was being questioned for allegedly abusing a multitude of young men over the course of his acting career. With many reports suggesting that Spacey may have used his position as a high profile, well established actor in order to sexually abuse young men, many of whom were minors at the time of their alleged adult.

2. Michael Jackson

Although its been years since Michael Jackson passed away, his reputation has recently come under fire again as more men have come forward saying that they were sexually abused by Jackson as kids.

While it’s unclear what really went on at Jackson’s Netherland Ranch, it has been confirmed that Jackson would often have sleepovers with young boys in his bedroom, without the boys’ parents being in the room. A fact that makes many individuals naturally uneasy.

3. Emma Roberts

In fact Roberts, who clearly has anger management issues has even hospitalised Peters on more than one occasion.

As a result of her openness and bravery Dushku wasn’t protected but was fired from “Bull” and eventually paid a settlement in order to keep quiet on her sexual harassment.

5. Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise is one of the most famous names to feature on our list of creepy celebrities. While Cruise may not come across as creepy he is a fervent believer in the Church of Scientology which is deemed by many as an abusive cult.

Invaluable Business Tips

If you’re looking for innovative ways to ensure that your business flourishes, continue reading to discover a few must read business tips, that will help you take your business to the next level!

Invaluable business tips:

1. Be open to learning from your clients or customers

Instead of wondering what it is that your clients or customers want, listen carefully to the feedback that your business gets from its clients and take a proper look at the comments which your clients leave on your business’ social media pages.

To get an accurate understanding of the parts of your business that your clients are currently satisfied with as well as any changes that your clients would love to see be made to your business in the long term.

So instead of dismissing comments about your business that you may see as negative, learn from the feedback which your business attracts. In particular pay attention to points that are frequently brought up by multiple clients, over points which may have only been raised by a single disgruntled client or customer.

2. Don’t copy your competition, instead find ways for your business to stand out

While you should always keep up to date with your competition’s business moves, instead of trying to play catch up and trying to copy your competition’s business moves, it’s a far better idea to try and come up with innovative ways for your business to stand out.

As an example if there is a need that your competition can’t fulfil, you should make it your business’ aim to come up with a solution to your customer’s need. As at the end of the day every service and product which your business produces, should address a need in the world, which isn’t currently being met by another business.

3. Ask for input from your employees

No one understands your business better than your employees, so it’s a great idea to ask for creative and practical input from your employees. As your employees who work on the front line of your business, won’t be short of ideas on how you can streamline your business, save your business money and better serve your business’ customers. Just be sure to fairly reward any of your employees who come up with innovative, valuable ideas.

If a particular employee is a bright spark in your business, you may even want to take things one step further by giving them a promotion as well as proffesional management or leadership training. As your business’ number one asset is its employees and its well worth taking good care of your best employees. As bright sparks whose talents go unnoticed are unlikely to keep working for the same company as their skills will be in hot demand.

4. Don’t be too hard on yourself

While it may seem as if your business has a long way to go in order to meet your business’ long term goals, chances are that your business has come a long way and that you should remember how well your business has done thus far.

So if you’re passionate about your business and want your business to flourish in the future, it’s well worth referring back to this business guide on a regular basis.
