Meant marriage

Agrika:
I don't believe in that word "love"...you know as in terms of "loving" someone who is not related to you by blood....i feel they are a lot of other important ingredients like Tolerance, patience, mutual respect, loyalty, being content with what you have, TRUST,etc which should be in a relationship other than the so called overated love....so many sad stories on family section, with one of the partners claiming she (it's mostly a she) claiming she still loves the man despite what he did to her....my advice to ladies out there...most especially the unmarried ones is to drop this notion of a fairy-tale wedding,...try to be realistic and practical in life. Nobody knows u better than yourself...you know wat u want, knows what qualities u desire in a partner, and most especially should know when to have the courage to say No to a relationship that lacks these ingredients mentioned

fairy tale wedding or marriage?

Great insight.

But will it work in the Nigerian setting where ego and arrogance seems to be a more potent driving force than collective good and success?

i just saw this


Did u read the full article


If u look at the article i dont think ego or arrogance is patented to nigeria

And though Zenger admits that having another executive to discuss something with before approaching the board is a benefit of the system, he thinks that co-CEOs risk overly complicating things by having to report to each other constantly.

Bower also recognizes that most companies that try the system will feel the strain of divided command. "It takes great discipline to consult when appropriate, be decisive when needed, and not blow up the arrangement when one's partner has violated an aspect of the arrangement," he said.

In 2008, for instance, media company Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia named Wenda Harris Millard and Robin Marino as dual CEOs. But the arrangement dissolved in less than a year, reportedly due to disagreements at the top.

Arsenal will continue to embarrass itself until Wenger either retires or leaves...

i tend to agree

Mynd44:
Two CEOs in one company. I have never thought of it, I still dont see how much it will work perhaps cos I have being programmed into the believe in one overall boss.

Might just be my inexperience though

ok.

Mynd44:
Well people are trying to draw up similarities between financial organizations and the home.

Ok..anyone can draw anything

What is insightful about the article

What is insightful about the article
What i see it that co ceo is at best a fanciful arrangement that works in certain cultures(Europe) and used for crises situations

The said world changing article in full

On Thursday, Oracle's Larry Ellison unexpectedly announced that he was stepping down from his CEO post and naming not one, but two CEOs to replace him. Co-president and CFO Safra Catz and co-president Mark Hurd will share the role of CEO.

Oracle isn't the first major company to tap more than one CEO at the same time. Chipotle, Whole Foods, and Deutsche Bank are also run by two CEOs. Samsung even has three of them. But why?

The co-CEO system is nothing new, though it is certainly uncommon. Previous implementations suggest that having more than one chief executive can help a company accomplish more by delegating different roles to each head. But the system is certainly not for every company.

Sometimes referred to as "two-in-the-box," the unusual structure can provide "increased scope and broader capacity," Joseph L. Bower, a management professor at Harvard Business School, told Business Insider.

Bower, author of "The CEO Within," thinks that co-CEOs can better lead certain companies.

"If one CEO is on a global tour of facilities, the other can deal with the government at home," Bower offered as an example. "It also increases the range of talents in the box. A visionary can be complemented by a hands-on operator."

At Oracle, for example, Katz will oversee manufacturing, finance, and legal decisions, while Hurd manages the sales, service, and global business units.

Some companies keep the founder in place and bring in an experienced executive to share the role. Both Chipotle and Whole Foods have kept the founder as one CEO, and both men remain the heart of their respective companies. That dynamic has shown that keeping a founder at the top as an inspirational lead and partnering them with a leader with more management experience can yield great results.

Steve Ells founded Chipotle in 1993 and served as its singular CEO until 2009, when he promoted Monty Moran to the same position from Moran's role as president and COO. That same year, Chipotle's annual earnings jumped 67% from 2008. Moran honed his delegation skills when he led a team of lawyers at the firm Messner Reeves, and those skills have complimented Ells' passion for culinary creativity.

Having dual CEOs is more common in countries like Germany, said Bower, where "collective management is a tradition of sorts." German companies Deutsche Bank and SAP both have two CEOs (though SAP co-CEO Jim Hagemann Snabe will step down to the supervisory board in May). German automaker Daimler AG only recently ended its run under co-CEOs.

Jack Zenger, CEO of the leadership research firm Zenger Folkman, agrees that the co-CEO structure could work well in some situations, such as a temporary solution after a big merger or when a CEO wants to groom their successor.

But the management structure also comes with significant downsides. Even when the two CEOs determine which duties to split, it's only natural that "one person is going to be held primo and the other person is going to play a secondary role," says Zenger. "To me, it seems like it raises an unnecessary set of issues that aren't really sustainable in the long run."

For example, having two CEOs of a small business, like online eyewear retailer Warby Parker's Neil Blumenthal and David Gilboa, could help grow the company by splitting major responsibilities, according to Zenger. But it could also create problems with clients who may be confused about who to consult about a major decision.

And though Zenger admits that having another executive to discuss something with before approaching the board is a benefit of the system, he thinks that co-CEOs risk overly complicating things by having to report to each other constantly.

Bower also recognizes that most companies that try the system will feel the strain of divided command. "It takes great discipline to consult when appropriate, be decisive when needed, and not blow up the arrangement when one's partner has violated an aspect of the arrangement," he said.

In 2008, for instance, media company Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia named Wenda Harris Millard and Robin Marino as dual CEOs. But the arrangement dissolved in less than a year, reportedly due to disagreements at the top.

Despite the risks, Bower thinks that the U.S. may be gradually moving toward a leadership culture more akin to Germany's, in which co-CEOs would not be such a rarity. "[A]s we strengthen the non-executive chairman's role, as well as the lead director, we may — in effect — be moving in that direction," he said.

Zenger, on the other hand, believes that the history of business leadership weighs too heavily against the co-CEO structure becoming mainstream anytime soon. "After centuries of experience, it's usually easier if there's one person who has the ultimate say," he said.

It seems it has become a new trend for some men to request for their spouse to be to be pregnant fIrst before the proper marriage takes place.I have had the opportunity to ask about 20 yet to be married men and 15 of of them wants their wives to be to get pregnant first.I also asked them why they wanted it,I was shocked when they all said "I don't trust nigerian girls these days".
I have a cousin who is gonna be 34years by next year and she is not yet married.There is this guy she was introduced to for marriage but the man gave her condition that she must get pregnant first.My cousin being a very stubborn lady refused and said she will never get pregnant before marriage.Her mum has been worried because of her age and also being the first daughter.
My main worry now is that her mum wants me to advise her on what to do.Right now am confused.I don't know what kind of advice to give.Should I advise her to get pregnant or wait for the right time? Am really scared the guy might leave her if

she refuses to get pregnant first.

So what happened to your cousin

Who shall we blame, thank God Ozil didn't play. I think our players did their best, entertaining us till things turned around. Wenger made the useful sub to add more energy upfront. Most of us professed that Monreal is better at CB than LB before we conceded through penalty. BFG could do little or nothing to prevent the headed goal, else he gives away penalty and red carded. Maybe we should blame the ref for allowing offside goal that motivated the Belgium's.

You are right.. too many OZil haters will have pounced on the dude if he was on pitch
Funny i said the same thing in my mind... i hadnt seen Nacho's characteristic errors and bam!.. the penalty

Finishing second will attract big teams no doubt but you beat the best to be among the best. Everyone expected Real Madrid to win Liverpool with high goal margin last night but this is football. Hopefully, we'll play whoever with our best players coming back strongly from injuries.

By the way, how will fans of Liverpool and Mancity feel if we moan about fishing 2nd to qualify for the next stage.

Is that the gist

That inducement is the one we against, but the more we sing against it - the more they do it.

Unfortunately!! The Poll tab is no longer available on Nairaland and Campaigning on a different thread makes it hard to reach the electorates..
So far, I have been able to get some people to vote my candidates live on this thread and some of them never visited the campaign thread.
Its unfortunate but just has to be.

Lol...

the title "THE SIM" comes from the fact that it's a simulation, thus the end scene- where she wakes up in the real world.

thanks for the observation. the character design wasn't really race specific, we used the name simi so nigerians can associate with it. but we have plans to rework the design so its more akin to our people.

Nice one
