Published

on

Are you an office manager who is looking to improve your office management skills or the approaches that you take? If you are, you will want to continue reading on. Office management can be demanding, but there are a number of tips that you can use to your advantage. These tips, a few of which are outlined below, can help you become a better office manager, if properly implemented.

TIME MANAGEMENT

One of the many ways that you can go about becoming a better office manager is by staying well aware of your time. Time management is an important component of office management. Office managers are known for having long and large tasks lists. To accomplish each of your daily and weekly activities before their deadlines, you will need to have a good sense of time. Regularly missing deadlines or running behind schedule is not good for your company or your office as a whole and it may also put your job at risk.

FOCUS ON TASK AT HAND

In keeping with making sure that your time is well managed, it is also important that you stay focused and on task at all times. It is common for office workers to become preoccupied with internet surfing, emails, bathroom breaks, coffee breaks, or even smoking breaks. Of course, you deserve a break every now and then, but it is important that you do not abuse your power. Not only will this result in you looking unprofessional as an office manager, but it may also jeopardize your job or your ability to meet deadlines.

BE RESPONSIBLE

Another one of the many ways that you can go about being a better office manager is by staying aware of those who you are responsible for. Although office management jobs do vary, many office managers are responsible for overseeing other office staff members. If management is one of your job responsibilities, you will want to make sure that you know who you are supposed to manage. It is advised that you introduce yourself to all new employees or all office members if you are a new hire. Not only should you know everyone who is under your supervision, but they should also know who you are and what your role in the company is.

Although it is advised that you introduce yourself to all office workers or other staff members that you are responsible for supervising, it is important that you proceed with caution. Office managers and other managers need to remember that there is a line that should not be crossed. That line is one that involves mixing business with pleasure. It is advised that you simply introduce yourself to your employees, new or not, in a professional business matter. As an office manager, you have a responsibility to handle all office related issues, but personal issues should be left at home or discussed outside of the office.

The above mentioned office management tips are just a few of the many that office managers, namely those who are new to the field, can use to help improve their performances. In short, you are advised to use your best judgement, be professional at all times, and make sure that your time is well managed. For additional office management tips, you may want to use the internet or sign up to take an office management training course or seminar. Many are hosted by those well-known in the field of office management

In a recent interview on Talk To B podcast, Jinad alleged she was verbally abused by Mide Martins, a colleague, on the set of a movie.

She claimed that Mide insulted her and called her a “monkey with a black face”.

Jinad said people always complain about her dark complexion, advising her to “lighten up”.

She added that she “decided to change after Mide insulted me” to make people happy.

“We were at Afeez Owo’s rehearsal ground and a colleague of mine did something wrong which I was not a part of,” she said.

“They told us to kneel down. Mide Martins, my boss and some other people were there. Mide Martins insulted me and called me someone with a black face.

“She said so many things to abuse me and I felt very bad. I later found out that she called me a monkey with a black face.

“I’m sure that till now she might not know that what she said to me the other day somehow affected me.

“Even before then, whenever I was on set, people would say that I’m too dark-skinned and that I need to lighten up.

Lege, who hosts a matchmaking show on YouTube, recently claimed that the actress sought his services to find a partner, but described her as “picky”.

In a viral voice note online, Badmus lashed out at Lege’s comments and criticised his approach to running his matchmaking show.

She also advised him to learn the proper rules of matchmaking if he lacked understanding.

“Hello Lege, it is like your brain is messy, what do you mean no one should look for your trouble? Who is your grandmother? Who are you? I am saying you have to be discreet about what you are doing,” she said.

“You are doing a matchmaking, if you do not know rules, f**king go online and Google rules about it. How dare you put my name out there saying Eniola is picky. You are mad!”

In response, Lege questioned if Badmus paid for a private service and insulted her appearance.

Kwam 1 finally addresses rift with ex-drummer Ayanlowo

Published

Wasiu Ayinde, the Fuji singer fondly called Kwam 1, has finally addressed his rift with Kunle Ayanlowo, his former drummer.

Ayanlowo recently alleged that Kwam 1 was fond of treating his band members like “slaves”.

The instrumentalist claimed he “achieved nothing” while working under the Fuji singer for over three decades.

Ayanlowo, who left the Fuji singer in October 2022, also asked the public to hold the ace singer responsible should any harm befall him.

Kwam 1 had earlier refused to address the allegations.

But speaking with journalists at his Mayegun Resort in Ìjẹ̀bú Ode, Ogun, the Fuji star denied Ayanlowo’s allegations.

Ayinde also shared his side of the story on his rift with Ayanlowo. The singer said he “single-handedly” formed his band,” adding that the initial sharing formula with members was 60/40.

Kwam 1 said as time went on, he adjusted the sharing formula to 40/60 due to the burgeoning size of his music band.

He explained that whenever they perform at an event, he takes 30 percent of the cut while his band members receive 50 percent. 10 percent of his cut and that of his band go to their management.

The singer also spoke about the years-long financial challenges he faced and his “numerous sacrifices” to ensure the smooth running of the band.

“You know how many things I have overlooked in my life to be able to keep a band working? I never can say how many times I have gone to borrow money to finance my band’s trip,” he said.

“From inception, the agreement between me and my group was 60/40. 40 percent to them because they were not many then. Maybe about nine of them. But when they were becoming larger, getting to 14, 15 there was an adjustment of money conditions. I said okay 50/50.

“It is a sole band. I have the grace of God to be able to be someone that is contented. Do you know how many times I have sold my things to fund my band?”

“In my band now I have like 27 or 28. You can imagine.”

Giving an illustration of the sharing formula, Kwam 1 said: “For instance, if we make N10 million from a show, I take only N3 million. and I pay my security details from the N3 million”.

Wasiu also referred to Ayanwolo as a “troubleshooter” who “complains too much”. The singer said due to the drummer’s troubles, he has left the band on several occasions.

The musician said about seven people have apologised to him on behalf of Ayanlowo to reinstate him in the band.

“Like Ayankunle has been a former member of the band. He has been a troubleshooter. He has gone and come back on several occasions. I will tell you, of all my bandmen, he is the only member that over seven times people have come to beg for to restore. Ayankunle that you see complains too much,” he said.

He also alleged that instrumentalists once absconded from the band when they travelled to England to perform in the 90s.

Kwam 1 claimed Ayanlowo’s “dubious act” was eventually uncovered at the British Embassy after overstaying in the city.

“Ayankunle that is complaining that we tore his passport, let me tell you his story. He ran away from the band in England while we were on tour in the 90s. He ran away from the band with his passport. Together with him and another two members of the band. And we came back to Nigeria,” the singer said.

“After overstaying in London, he now gave the passport to somebody to renew it at the embassy. They took the passport, changed the head, and put another person’s head. When they got to the embassy, they discovered that the interview they did for that one did not tally with the visas in the passport. They now asked the person he sent to tell the owner of the passport to come and collect it. Ayankunle’s passport is inside the British embassy.

“This is a man I did the passport for. He cannot write and read. I did everything for him. He ran away with the passport, how come you that ran away with the passport claimed it is with me?”
