Norman spoke about the importance of every organization having a Business Strategy. He also spoke about three key factors that every strategy should have. 1. Vision: Your vision statement should offer more of a direction and include a perspective of corporate values. A vision might provide a direction for the company for the next five to 10 years, while also noting a commitment to integrity, transparency, openness and other such values. It should inspire employees and given them a sense of purpose. 2. Unique Value Proposition: Your UVP is a clear statement that describes the benefit of your offer, how you solve your customer’s needs and what distinguishes you from the competition. 3. Pillars of Focus: Your pillars of focus should include three factors; Brand, Profit and Resources. All strategies should be reviewed on a regular basis in order for it to work.

Hirsch Meadowdale recently hosted its monthly Ladies Networking Morning with Petra Laranjo as the guest speaker for the morning. Petra is a published author, inspirational speaker, results architect for business and a personal development facilitator who is driven by a purpose to grow business and people through purpose and presence. Eighteen years of experience across the style, entertainment, corporate marketing and PR industries led her to write her first book, ‘LIVING ON PURPOSE. The Key To Change Your Life And Impact Others.’ Petra is also the winner of this month’s Margaret Hirsch Woman in Business Competition. Petra’s topic for the morning was ‘Image’. The message behind the topic was to grow you and your business by creating the right image in the minds of your clients. Petra explained that all it takes is a tenth of a second to form a first impression of a stranger and it takes eight positive interactions to change the opinion of someone. Petra then asked the questions; “How do you see yourself? What messages are you communicating about yourself?” The reality is that people treat you based on how you project yourself. It is important to know yourself and who you are. If you would like to be inspired, find your purpose in life and grow your business, join Hirsch’s monthly Ladies Networking Morning. To enter the Margaret Hirsch Woman in Business Achiever Competition, please contact letitia@hirschs.co.za for more information. The monthly finalists wins a R500,00 Hirsch gift voucher.
