Apple iPhone 6: Features that make a difference

Apple has made dual releases of their Smartphone the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and this time around they have gone for bigger screens. The iPhone 6 comes at 4.7” while the 6 Plus packs a 5.5” screen display. They both come with curved glass displays in my opinion this increases the body of the phone for handling and makes it aesthetically appealing but I vote down the idea because of durability issues that have been presented by the new design. The curved glass simply increases chances of the display cracking after a fall. This issue has seen other brands like go back to the flat displays with the surrounding plastic shield after experimenting with the curved design.  We need to know the real upgrades done on this phone because it is the upgrades that determine the value of the iPhone 6/plus. There is no point in getting a phone similar to what you already have or with negligible improvements so here is the rundown between the iPhone 6 and the 5S/other previous models.

An entrepreneur’s guide to starting a successful business

So a business idea has been bugging you for a while now and the risk taking beast in you demands to be let out. You may not know, why, when, where or how to go about implementing the idea and even even though you have answers to these questions the FEAR of failure is still holding you back. I felt the need to share my experiences and seek your contributions on how to start a successful business to serve as a guide for all entrepreneurs. The fact is we all have questions that need answers and some of us have answers to these questions. I have structured this article or guide in a Q&A format for simplicity and convenience just like an FAQ. Without further adieu let’s begin.

Business communication and people skills

The world as we all know it has become a global village. People from all walks of life converge in different business environments and of course they need to communicate. Although communication has some basic rules it has no global standard. Because of culture, socialization, language among different people of the world communication has to be learned as a skill. A business executive from America will need to sharpen his or her Chinese language and culture. This is because not all persons that you speak with will understand English and they will also have expectations with regards to their culture.

Apart from different nationalities in a business or within business environments you may be required to communicate with people of different genders, special needs people or children. Social class and age are among other demographics that you may have to work with in business environments. This will require you to package your communication to fit with these different demographics and of course if you mix them up you and the business are on the line. Take for example this article the article has been prepared in English and directed to business people but since it is published on the internet it is accessible to everyone and anyone. I have to ensure that the article is acceptable to different genders, age groups, nationalities among other demographics. The internet offers translation services for example Google translate so language is no barrier. If I make a mistake and communicate in a manner that is considered offensive to any of the demographics then I will be required to clarify, retract or apologize and you can imagine the public relations (PR) costs.

Let us know look at how best to communicate with different people and avoid unnecessary PR costs to the business.

Communicating with different genders and sexualities

Tune out your prejudice and bias

This may have come up because of your previous interactions with people of the different or same gender. Stereotypes that you may have heard of or grown up knowing may give you the wrong assumptions and impression. People are unique in nature so when communicating in this case in a business environment try and be neutral it helps in understanding the message.

How to structure your business communication

I would like to compare communication with an institution that has rules and structures developed to maintain order. For communication to be effective within a business institution it needs to be structured and fall within the guidelines that ensure effective communication. If you are going to meet a client or a supplier or going for a press conference you need to prepare. You need to have an idea of what is likely to be asked and how you are expected to respond. The mood and emotions also need to be checked and this we will look at in later articles in the series. So where do we start with this business communication preparation?

How to prepare yourself for the meet

A lot goes into this you may need to consider your mental and emotional state of mind before meeting with the client. Although this may not apply in all situations it is still important to know where you are at and in case you are not in the appropriate state you can see how to bring yourself up to speed. People easily pick up on your moods and attitudes so try clearing your mind and take heavy doses of good thoughts it helps calm the spirit.

Depending on who you are going to meet your dressing may help you improve the comfort levels or build walls between you and the client. A power suit speaks differently from casual wear the first will speak official/formal while the other goes informal and relaxed. So choose appropriately if you are meeting with official guys then pull out your suit if it’s with people who prefer relaxed then go casual.

Lastly make sure that you have an updated version of the information that will be required under the topic of discussion. Master your content, because people appreciate a knowledgeable and straight forward person.
