Most Vital Leverage For Getting Ahead - Social Capital-Hiworks

Our Most Vital Leverage In Life Is Readily Available For Getting Ahead...Exploit Yours

It is high time Financial capital Intimidating potential is demystified, as well as others; Intellectual or Human, Material, Natural, Manufactured, Assets and these are not in any particular order.

There is a consensus, that the most important capital or resource is Human in any organization; Priced higher than money. However, if there is no Money, chances are you may not be able to build that human capital.

It is very easy to build an island around unavailability of financial capital when it's NOT a level 5 problem; level 5 of 100-the starter's level.

It's being advised by many business development gurus, that, it is better to experiment a new business with very low risk bearing capital.

This is where Social Capital Deployment comes to bear.

Social Capital, Layman Definition, is the value you command leveraging on Relationships you have built mostly directly and indirectly from the Day you were born to the Day you come across this Article... And you can not get the definition simpler than that.

Social Capital is mostly emotionally accrued over the years of interactions, with relations, friends, colleagues across our sphere of engagements and also very importantly across the sphere of engagements of the relations, friends and colleagues we interact with.

Social Capital can open unimaginable doors of opportunities that you may never be able to command even with highest level of education and financial capital.

For the purpose of example, one of my Siblings work a Federal Media Organization and by virtue of what she does so well, Technically, she has political access to certain Ministers and Commissioners, She can virtually take people to the living room of such political bigwigs; Bigwigs that people with financial capital and all will have to book appointment to see.

Some drivers and gatemen have such huge social capital,that can open unimaginable doors when you have them as friends. Some Tailors, Barbers,musicians will shock you with their Power of Access they carry.

Marriages have created huge social capital for many to exploit as well as Certain Relationships. People have gotten jobs and businesses just because they are related and born by certain Influential or Legacy Parents.

Some parents will invest in certain schools in view of the interactions and leverages that they anticipate their children will have in the future.

Inspite of all the handouts, the biggest contributions to growing Social Capital is the ones you invested yourself; from toddlers, primary school,secondary school, while learning your trade, or in higher institutions, when you got your job,or the business, how diligent you came across, the fidelity rating, the trust rating you built with your small breaks and all will add up to your Social Capital.

The other critical avenue to built a Social capital leverage is from friends and Colleagues you schooled and worked together  previously. Most of such interactions were closely engaging for more than 4years. And now with  the advent of social media and such like, the capital can grow exponentially and be leveraged for low risk financial capital, intellectual capital, material capital and more.

Social capital is a spring board when built on integrity and all. But also note that the news get round when it is abused. It is very difficult to rebuild a dented image. Odusina Adewale Hiworks
