In the early days of my career
work/life balance seemed to have skewed towards business endeavours. I must
admit it was a grinding period. Can you imagine travelling every week to Middle
East, Eastern Europe, Africa, Russian Federation, and CIS States for a time
scale exciding over many years? As well as attending meetings at HQ, in Canada,
US, UK, Korea, Germany.
1990’s & 2000’s & to
present day, telecoms and technology uplift or rather upgrade was taking the
region by storm. Therefore being on the location and at the site had utmost
significance. Do you remember those days when internet was not widely deployed?
Written or verbal communications effectiveness was questionable. Even today
nothing can take away the power of face to face meetings.
Please have a glance to the
challenges that may provide a glimpse of thought for those who are mighty
interested in covering large territories.
My sincere suggestion would be
not to look at your feet. It's already too late to find out gaps and dents in the
ground. Look to distances. Make sure that you have a prediction sketched on a
piece of paper. Graphics and pictures usually illuminate the rough paths before
a step is taken.
First Challenge. “Make presence
felt”
