PROMOTION! Team name and Tagline - Work Experience Part 3

Hey guys!

So last week has been a really good week for me, I was on the roll in terms of my sales (of course, with a good amount of help from my seniors) and got sales of $586 for a week, and about $800 plus after hitting top 10% (bonus of 50%!).
This means that I will be promoted to become a corporate trainer (you get promoted fter doing $400 worth of sales in a week), and I get to choose my team name and tag line, and these two will remain with me all the way till I form my own company.

My boss Allison's team name is 'Forte' and her tagline is 'Influential', and thus I am working at Forte now. I am part of Ronnie's team and his team name is 'Inspiration'. cant remember the tagline though oops.


When choosing a team name and tagline, both have to mean something to you. It has to represent something that you truly believe in and that would live with this mission and vision for as long as you build your company for. So before I let my colleagues know about my own team, I'm gonna let you guys take a sneak peek at it ;)





Team Name: OBSIDIAN

- The obsidian is actually a cooled volcanic stone, and it represents resilience and self-control.
- One property of the obsidian is that it apparently draws out all the negativity of a person and brings it to the surface so that the person can confront them and wash them away, cleansing the person.

Why did I choose this name?
- I have a vision for myself and my team to not be afraid of their weaknesses and problems. Instead of running away from them like a coward, all of us will bravely recognise these obstacles and face them head on, thinking up of ways and solutions to beat the negativity and come out renewed and a better person.


Tag Line: CHANGE FOR THE BETTER

-Through the past 18 years of my life, one of the most important things I realised about life is that it is always changing. From the climate, to developing technology, to fashion trends, people you meet everyday and even your own likes and dislikes, it never stays the same for long.
-Since we cant stop the world from developing, what we can do in turn would be to transform ourselves and adapt quickly to suit our circumstances. We will not only be better prepared for the challenges the world might throw at us but also become a newly improved version of ourselves.
- Change is difficult, but it is something that everyone is capable of. Many of us would prefer to stay in our comfort zone and not budge and inch because they feel right at home, but change will definitely bring all of us further in life. The most important thing to me is that I am not the same person I was yesterday.





If you were to have your own company, what would your goals, mission and vision be? :)
