… for that “sexy” middle!
For long, Glamour’s been seeking it: the sexy midriff. (You’ve) got it, you flaunt it! Two reasons, though, make the middle sexy across fields.
- Middle is the key to glory.
Leadership and the touch of a midfield general ruled decades in soccer: 80s’ Maradona, ’90s Zidane and Spanish Armada the next. Mid-level managers bridge strategy to execution for great corporates: they transform the vision of leaders into the mission of executors. Cavalry mops up after the infantry bruises you, while also protecting the henchmen. The middle is adept across defense and offence.
2. Middle is the land of opportunity.
Oil, trade routes and faith have driven middle-east power globally. India, with its burgeoning middle class, is a close second. Small-cap is risky, the large over valued — great mid-caps maximize returns across investors!
The success at OfBusiness is also due to great mid-level managers. They’re our converters in sales, negotiators in operations and auditors in finance. They’re the ones who slog it out the most in the middle — be it time or place of work.
In today’s pacy rat race, starting with a dash and ending with a flash is a given. The “great” win in the middle overs with great middle-men.
The middle of January gives us all an opportunity to demonstrate that!
Happy Sunday!
