An aspiring young professional with fine suits and fast cars, it’s fair to say that Henry has a slightly inflated ego. Recently, Henry was given a make-or-break career opportunity – to deliver a stunning presentation. So what did Mr. MBA do?
Within 24 hours he assembled a knockout PowerPoint, complete with a fancy company template and exquisite bullet points. Henry pulled out all the stops. He even made handouts of his slides. It was a recipe for success. So he thinks…
Meet Henry. He doesn’t know any better.
Today we live in a business culture that abuses the art and science of public speaking. It’s a culture where PowerPoint is the norm, reading from you slides is accepted, and wasting everyone’s time is a given. When you think about it, it’s really quite disturbing.
howardajordanFROM THE DESK The Branch Manager UN Credit Group of Togo 19 Seventh Avenue, West Ridge, P.O Box 16746, Lome North Togo Dear Friend, My name is Howard A.Jordan. I get a Job here in Africa as the branch manager UN Credit Bank of Togo. I got your information during my research through the Internet to have a good relationship. I Am 42 years of age, married with 3 beautiful children. It may interest you to know that I am a man of peace and do not want trouble, but I say this because it is real and not going to regret after doing this transaction with me. I just hope we can help each other. But if you do not want this business offer kindly forget about it. But am contacting you because I believe you can be trusted in this and will not betray me when the fund get to your account. As the branch manager UN Credit Bank of Togo, it is my duty to send in a financial report to my office at the end of each year. In my end of 2008 the balance report, I discovered that my branch in which I am the manager made $ 14,750,000 in excess [14,750.000.00] which my head office are not aware of and never will be into account. I have since placed this fund on what we call SUSPENSE ACCOUNT without any beneficiary. As an officer of the bank I can not be directly connected to this money, which explains my contacting you for us to work, so you can receive this money into your bank account for us to SHARE. You can have 30% of the total fund. We will shift it from bank to bank, all I need from you is to stand claim as the original depositor of this fund who made the deposit with our branch so that my Head office can order the transfer your account. If you accept this offer to work with me, I appreciate it, you can send your private telephone number for quick relationship with respect to this matter.
