Networking vs Real business

How do you know that you are joining for a real business nowadays?

The only question and answer for that is this:

IF I DONT RECRUIT WILL I STILL MAKE MONEY?
If answer is YES = REAL BUSINESS
If answer is NO= FAKE BUSINESS

The real OFW hero is also an investor in RP

Hansen Sy - Philippine Daily Inquirer — March 16, 2010

I REFER TO THE EDITORIAL, "Passport to properity?" (PDI, 10/27/05) While it is true that working abroad somehow gives us a passport to prosperity, it’s still just a step closer. I believe that our positive response to Sen. Manuel Villar’s call for us to go up the next level from OFW to OFI (overseas Filipino investor) will make prosperity a reality. House bills like that should be passed expediently.
Many of my friends here in Singapore, including myself, dream of putting up our own business. We are determined to help the towns where we come from gererate wealth. Brain drain only happens when we totally uproot ourselves and never go back. But there are many of us OFWs who consider this stage of our lives as only a season of learning and acquiring better skills. We dream of going back and helping our communities realize their potentials to be economically prosperous. The question for us is when. When do we go back? Apparently, this becomes the hardest question everyone of us struggles with. When things become perfect at home? No, we realize that there is no perfect timing.
So while we make it out here and figure out how to make it there again, we urge our lawmakers and our rich countrymen who are capable of creating businesses, to improve our country’s economy, so that opportunities for employment will be aplenty, and we would need foreign talents more that we need to export local ones. And all of us OFWs would go home.
While we a re called the new heroes of our economy, we don’t really feel like it. Once, a Singaporean taxi driver asked me what I was doing is Singapore. And then he went on to boast that he’s got a chicken farm in Mindoro even if he’s not a Filipino or even if he doesn’t have a Filipino wife or family, because he wanted to help our poor country. He advised me to go back and make our country wealthier. I may doubt his sincerity or scorn his bragging, but the truth is, most of us here would really like to go back and help our country become better. And see ourselves sending money from home to destitute places in Africa or to other needy places in the world. That makes for real heroism.
Who does not want to be called a hero? But most certainly, none of us OFWs feel like one. Those who generate wealth from our own resources back home are the real heroes. They are the pillars of our economy. OFWs are here today, gone tomorrow. So, may all OFWs be OFIs and be a "brain gain" for our beloved country.

Personal Financial Planning

Kabayan,
Kumusta na ang buhay mo sa abroad?
Ilang taon ka na bang nagtratrabaho?
Nabawasan na ba ang mga iniwan mong utang sa Pinas o nadagdagan pang lalo?
May naipon ka na ba sa ilang taon mong pinaghirapan o walang natitira sa kinikita mo buwan buwan?
Hanggang kailan mo balak magtrabaho dito? Pag balik mo ba sa Pinas, may maiuuwi ka bang pera para sa iyong kinabukasan? Pinaghahandaan mo ba ito?
Nasa sitwasyon ka ba na di mo alam kung paano mo aayusin ang pamamalakad ng iyong pananalapi? 0 di mo alam kung paano mo kokontrolin ang pag gastos kahit mag kanda utang ka na? O marami ka nang salapi pero di mo alam kung paano ito hawakan ng maayos?
Kabayan, kung nasa ganito kang sitwasyon, ibig kitang imbitahan sa isang LIBRENG SEMINAR TUNGKOL SA PERSONAL FINANCIAL PLANNING.
Ituturo dito ang pagkakaiba ng pagpapakahirap natin para sa pagkita ng pera sa perang nagtratrabaho o kumikita ng kusa para sa atin (working hard for the money vs money working hard for you). Ituturo din dito ang mga paraan para tayo makalaya sa paghihirap sa pananalapi (Financial Independence)
Sabi nga, pumupunta tayo sa Doktor para malaman natin ang problema o tulong para sa kalusugan, sa Abugado, kung tungkol sa Batas o sa Pari o Pastor para sa ating ispiritwal na pangangailangan. Pero sa pamamalakad ng ating pananalapi, alam ba natin kung sino ang dapat lapitan?
Eto Kaibigan ang maaaring matagal mo nang hinahanap na tulong. E-click mo ang link na ito, para sa kadagdagang impormasyon.
Bakit namin ito ginagawa?... May nag-imbita din sa amin noong una... Nakinig rin kami sa seminar na katuld nito, natuto at ginagawa na kung ano man ang aming natutuhan. At ibig rin naming ibahagi kung ano man ang natutuhan. Sigurado akong hindi ka manghihinayang sa oras na ilalaan mo para dito.

Salamat,

Health care not a business as usual

Brian Solis has it right, it is the end of business as usual, and healthcare is no exception. Has the market reality produced a new set of assumptions, emerging opportunities, or a better climate for disruptive innovation? In my interview with Jack Corrao, the managing director of the Corrao Group, he stated that the healthcare landscape is being challenged by innovations such as cloud computing, microsensor devices, and most of all, healthcare consumerism. Just as Solis wrote his book to “groom a new generation of leaders, people who want to lead and are looking for the answers and inspiration necessary to guide others into uncharted territory,” Corrao observed that there is a new generation of innovators and entrepreneurs who want and need to learn quickly how to diminish any probability of failure.

Corrao’s perspective is also in sync with the recent PricewaterhouseCoopers 15th Annual Global CEO Survey which indicated that CEO’s are “slightly less optimistic than they were last year, but are still focused on growth. Further, customer demand is the primary driver of corporate strategy which includes getting the product and service portfolio right…and encouraging the free flow of ideas and innovation regardless of where they originate.” The report also notes that “almost all US CEO’s are revising their innovation strategies with 72% focusing on creating new products and services within existing business models.” As an example, many in healthcare have recently focused on Aetna, as a company that is just not talking about innovation, but leading change by leveraging innovation as a vehicle for growth. Check out what Aetna and Chairman and CEO, Mark T. Bertolini, @mtbert is tweeting: “…DC is not the answer, just the catalyst. Disruptive technology in the hands of the doc and consumer will disrupt healthcare!” Corrao agrees that, “Aetna serves as a perfect example that ‘seeing what is next’ does not only come from startup’s – Aetna is responding to the new demands of the market place, and hopefully we will see more companies doing the same; it’s important to realize that the market is much more peer-to-peer connected due to social media and technology platforms.”

Another company that seems to have responded to the connected customer and consumer is Salesforce.com, the enterprise cloud computing company, which has built an ecosystem that allows companies to bring their ideas to market. Corrao states that, “they recognize that companies need innovation to succeed and have responded to the impact of social media; companies are changing the way they collaborate and communicate with customers and Salesforce.com provides the ability for businesses to transform themselves into a social enterprise – a tremendous tool for healthcare innovators.”

How do innovators diminish the probability of failure? As a business lifecycle consultant, Corrao has evaluated his fair share of business plans and offers up some insight:

1. Take a sanity test-speak to outside sources – “you are not the smartest person in the room, leverage outside subject matter experts.”

2. Your first business plan may not last even one year – there may be 2-3 iterations

3. Design a PR strategy where consumers become a strong voice or advocate for your product.

4. Don’t rush to market on emotions before you’ve fine tuned your plan, you’ll run out of steam.

The influential Solis states that “connected consumers represent the convergence of information technology…and the future of media and business is powered by collaboration and co-creation,” Corrao drives the point home that innovators should focus on consumers that are ready to buy real time web and mobile based information where they can take control of their health. Healthcare consumerism is a significant driver of innovation and now that companies like Aetna are talking innovation, the healthcare innovation trajectory has just changed.
