Everything is vibration. Everything is energy. It is no longer just competence, knowledge, effort or faith that count. What counts in this new world is the vibrational frequency with which we live each moment of our lives. Low frequencies such as anger, fear, sadness, etc. will lead us to a meager, pale and unhappy life. High vibrations will propel us to a beautiful, comfortable, full and purposeful life.

Let’s take the chapter “Vibration” from the “Golden Book of High Performance Life” – Henrique Amaral, as a basis, to delve a little deeper into this subject.

“I understand that the entire universe is filled with vibrations.

I understand that, even invisible,

vibrations are existences as concrete as iron and steel.
As real as my own existence.

As constant as the sunrise and sunset.”

This first section seeks to explain that everything in the universe is vibration. There is nothing that is completely still or static. This may seem crazy, but… Even inanimate objects (chairs, tables, walls, computers) are composed of atomic particles that are in constant motion at a gigantic speed, unimaginable speeds, but in a harmonious dance of life. People in the field of science understand this position perfectly, but for many of us it seems inconceivable. Crazy. I prefer to see it as the perfection of life.

Although we cannot see vibrations with our physical senses, they exist. Example: When we enter a place (store, office, someone's home) that is quiet and peaceful, we feel peace in our being. However, when we enter places that are disharmonious and conflicting, we feel like leaving that place, because our vibration becomes incompatible with that particular place, at that particular moment.

And this reminds me of this: A friend once told me that the environment is what makes it happen. At the time he said this, I agreed, but I didn't understand how I could change a heavy environment into a light and harmonious one. Today, I have it clear in my mind that everything is vibration! And if I keep my vibration high, I am able to transform the environment I pass through. Making it happier and more harmonious. More loving!! By living in a high vibration, I am doing good, not only for myself, for my being, but for all the people around me. And this is magical! It is DIVINE!

A. MARIMON ADVOGADOS ASSOCIADOS WILL BE RECOGNIZED FOR ITS OUTSTANDING MANAGEMENT AND WILL APPLY NEW BUSINESS GUIDELINES TO ACHIEVE GLOBAL GOALS

[Panama City, February 2021] Latin American Quality Institute (LAQI) highlights the important management carried out by A. MARIMON LAWYERS ASSOCIATES in a new edition of the Brazil Quality Summit, where it will be recognized with the “Brazilian Company of the Year Award 2021”, on May 11th at the Rebouças Convention Center in the city of São Paulo, for its outstanding business activity and commitment to adapting to our LAEM Excellence Model that forms the concept of Total Responsibility.

 

There are companies that are aware of the role they play in a dynamic, changing business world and the responsibility they bear in generating opportunities for the development of society. This is the case of A. MARIMON LAWYERS ASSOCIATES which, in addition to carrying out actions that seek to reinforce quality in each of its processes and interest groups, continues to align itself with new global business trends.

In this context, we will develop our “Challenge 2021 – Recover with Excellence – Total Quality, Sustainability and Compliance aligned with the SDGs”, which will set the agenda for companies to seek to achieve a better world by 2030, activating 8 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) promoted by the UN in its management.

 

“Today, to achieve Total Business Quality, companies must establish triple impact objectives (Environmental-Social-Governance). In this sense, we will train each business leader in our network to apply responsible management that impacts society and contributes, at the same time, to achieving the global goal proposed by the UN for 2030 through the Sustainable Development Goals”, declared LAQI founder and chief executive Daniel Maximilian da Costa.

Establish esteem and credibility, that is, the public, your customers, must have a preference for you, for your brand. Identify with it to the point of creating positive associations and respect. To this end, good relationships and engagement, also in the after-sales, whether of a product or service, become essential to win loyal customers and/or prestige in your career.

Working on and expanding your network of relationships is a basic personal marketing tip. You need partners, just as you need followers and fans. Maintain relationships and closeness with people in your field of expertise or in the segment in which you work or would like to work. Attend lectures, courses, seminars, and educate yourself whenever possible. It is through relationships that you create bonds, meet people, share common interests, and are noticed and remembered.

Strategic planning is the backbone of marketing. The central point of monitoring and understanding the evolution of marketing will be through the point-by-point structuring of what needs to be done and how to do it, with immediate, short, medium and long-term actions. After all, more than identifying, the brand must generate the perception of quality assurance and commitment.

Having a way to identify yourself makes it easier to promote your work. So create a logo that is unique to you, for your social media pages and for your email signature. People will learn to associate it with you and the recognition will work in favor of your credibility.

In order to improve your personal development, it is important that you are able to identify what is and what is not part of your personal and/or professional profile. What are your main values and how do you develop your skills? Your success is made up of the reasons that drive you and what you intend to do with your life. This guides your strategies. Having a clear vision of where you want to go may seem complicated at first, but start designing this path so that you can understand where you want to go.

Personal marketing is not just about appearance, but also about visuals, and its basic purpose is to create and offer value. It is what helps a person to better orient themselves with their resources and efforts, making their qualities and differences recognized. It establishes acceptance, familiarity and closeness with other people, clients and employers. Your appearance is your brand. The point is: does your appearance convey the image you want to convey to others?

Building a brand and market makes it easier to make yourself known, differentiate yourself from the competition and strengthen your image. Furthermore, to work on your personal marketing, you don't necessarily need to invest in designer clothes, but you do need to take care of your appearance, hygiene and intellect. A good tip is a well-trimmed beard for men and accessories that aren't too much for women. In a society that values appearance so much, whether you like it or not, your look and attitude are your calling card. Even if the organizational environment is flexible, basic care needs to be maintained, adapting to the place you are.

The application of digital marketing, for example, must always be based on professional ethics and excellence in the provision of the service provided, thus creating a professional strategy of alignment with the market, worthy and effective, in which you want to be part of.

Every athlete's dream is to have a prominent place on a professional soccer team and, who knows, be part of the illustrious Brazilian National Soccer Team. The athlete needs to be focused on his work on the field, and it is up to the Intermediary to seek out opportunities that make the dream a reality. But how do you know which Intermediary to choose?

The Intermediary must act as a facilitator in the Athlete's professional life. Each person has certain skills, knowledge and experiences. It is up to the Intermediary to have the subtlety to identify the professional maturity of each individual and guide them towards the alignment between their dreams, goals and achievements. The challenge is constant. The task of structuring, telling, explaining and guiding must coexist with calmness, patience and responsibility so that the Athlete feels safe and at ease to eliminate doubts. Attitudes and actions are characteristics that differentiate professionals in the market.

The development and growth of the Athlete's professional life require will and determination from both the Intermediary and the Athlete. Proximity and cooperation between both facilitates communication, transparency and credibility. These are key points that contribute to the rise of professional development. Care must be taken to ensure that the parties agree on objectives.

And remember:

Only contact an intermediary accredited and authorized by the CBF (Brazilian Football Confederation).

When you think that the search for greater productivity and still maintaining quality standards has reached its limit, it is because you have not yet tested decentralizing power, giving more autonomy to the team.

When you choose to focus on the strategic activities of the organization, you make proper use of the human resources you have, and you also get rid of unnecessary work overload. To be able to carry out this process fully, you need to disseminate the principles, values and purpose of the organization, so that individuals can feel connected to it (when we visualize a value, a positioning or an “idea of life” of the company, which has synergy with what we believe, we begin to experience it in a different way, taking the work to the next level, where delivery and satisfaction due to performance are always present).

Therefore, the manager who decentralizes power and gives autonomy to the team guarantees results in the medium term. The consequences can be people who are fulfilled with their work, greater efficiency and quality.

High-performance companies require an active legal department, because the role, especially the way in which the modern lawyer operates, is different. A company's legal department must act preventively, participate in market strategies and act as an active consultant to the entrepreneur.

In practice, the professional works even before potential business meetings, accelerating the understanding of possibilities and preventing possible conflicting issues regarding laws, providing security to all departments of the organization, which reinforces the role of centralizer/propagator of information between the different areas of the company.

At this time, where the legal department is part of the company's core business, it is a fundamental arm in leveraging profitable business, contributing to the expected effectiveness of all transactions carried out by the company, whether internal or B2B.

In an article in Exame magazine, management visionary Jim Collins, during the HSM ExpoManagement event in São Paulo, stated that one of the biggest challenges facing companies today is the lack of reflection, of doing everything on autopilot, without fear of the business disappearing. This is a very risky situation, especially in an era marked by innovation and the speed with which changes in consumption occur.

“It’s not those who innovate, innovate and only innovate who win the market. The ones who win are those who know how to integrate creativity and discipline into an innovative product or service and, of course, have the scalability to reach the customer,” he said.

The most consistent companies are those, he says, that have their businesses based on passion, built through arduous discipline and empirical creativity. “Only with them do you have the willingness to do what is necessary and to decide efficiently on how to do it,” he said.

Collins also argues that a certain “productive paranoia” is also necessary for leaders. “You only learn from the mistakes that require you to survive. There’s no point in being afraid because you can’t predict where and when the next obstacles will come from, but you need to be prepared for when they happen,” said the visionary.

Some examples of companies that have survived and/or grown from a new idea include Southwest Airlines, which started with three airplanes, and Microsoft, which started with five employees. “They all had careful risk management and prudence. But they also had bold, big, ambitious goals to be very good at what they set out to do,” Jim said.

According to Collins, leaders always need to stop and reflect on their business and their own approach. Who are your leaders and mentors? How can you be a mentor to your employees or ambitious young people? These are some of the questions he suggests that need to be asked.

But there are 12 more, which he says are essential for anyone who wants to be a successful manager. They should be answered by the manager, entrepreneur and also by their employees and they are:

1-Do we want to create a great company and are we willing to put in the effort to do so?;

2-Do we have the right people in key positions? “Putting people in the right place is the hardest decision a leader can make and it needs to be made for the business to thrive,” Collins said;

3-What are the brutal facts? “That is, where and in what you still need to improve,” he said;

4-If our company disappears, who will miss us? “In this sense, the leader must also ask himself which people on his team have the ability to get back on their feet if necessary,” says Jim;

5-What is your 20-mile march? What is your personal motivation? How do you know if you are within it or not?

6-Where are we going to bet based on empirical creativity?;

7-What are the essential values that we will always follow?

8-What is the bold, big and hairy goal that we are going to set for the next 15 or 25 years?

9-What can kill us and how can we protect ourselves?

10-What do you need to stop doing to make room for this new focus?

11-How can you increase your return on luck? “Bill Gates didn’t have luck, but boldness, creativity, ambition, a great idea. And a little bit of luck,” Collins said;

12-Are we a level five management team and are we creating a level five culture?

Getting involved with something you love and believe in will bring you ultimate satisfaction, Collins says. “When you find the ideal partners to do something with you that gives you passion and professional fulfillment, you end up making a unique contribution to the world, making a difference for people. That is true success,” said the visionary.

Human beings are static creatures who always seek to enter and remain in their comfort zone. We love comfort, have inflated egos and many fears, which is why we close our eyes to the signs that life sends us and do not explore other forms of work. This leads to blindness to opportunities and ideas, which are later successfully developed by our competitors.

This ignorant innocence that affects us has an explanation: every process of change and achieving important things involves getting off your ass and going after problems. That's right, problems. If you want to see opportunities or create innovative products, you need to pay attention to problems, and I'm going to prove it to you.

When we don't establish the problem, we end up going around in circles and never finding an adequate solution, because we don't know what the issue is, precisely the factor that anchors the other topics of a research, such as the environment and the people involved. The client, who may even bring the "wrong problem", will never be satisfied, or worse, will not have their real problem solved. Therefore, it is necessary to conceptualize this challenge clearly for everyone involved in the project, if there are more people, so that everyone will move in the same direction.

When we face problems, we look at them differently, trying to find ways to simplify what is complex, to make things that are slow quick, things that are heavy light, to unify and combine what is separate, and many other situations that we normally do not pay attention to, pretending we are not seeing, getting used to the wrong and more complicated way of carrying out activities. This is where we are restricted from changing, even if it is for our benefit.

All of humanity's brilliant ideas, as well as all those that are not brilliant but are incredibly useful in our daily lives, were created from problems, from discrepancies between the result obtained and the expected result, on any type of topic. There is no miracle formula and the proof of this is that, nowadays, few things are actually invented/solved (back in the day, Einstein, Tesla, Edison and their gang didn't have the fashionable x, y, z method, but they did have a vision for the problems, as well as a willingness to put their heads down and work, in other words, they took action).

There is no ideal formula because when the problem is structured and you start thinking inventively, the process feeds all the action. You will immerse yourself in it, you will experience the issue… and suddenly, everything around you will become a reference. This entire journey that you will take is because, first, you looked at the problems, and in silence your mind worked on that issue, calibrating your reasoning, making you research and understand more and more about the subject, giving you the confidence to move forward, awakening your curiosity – and then you have in your hands factors that allow you to achieve something great.

The consulting firm PwC released a report stating that, in Brazil, more than 80% of companies are family-owned. However, other studies by the same organization show that only 12% of family-owned companies reach the third generation, and only 1% reach the fifth. This case is mainly due to the lack of a governance plan, and consequently respect for this document of standards by its members. Such disorganization causes disputes and conflicts, which naturally have an impact on the company's operations.

Among family businesses that have been in operation for a longer period of time, one practice is a prerequisite: the adoption of a governance system that clearly distinguishes between owners and managers. In other words, heirs are in fact the owners of the company, but do not necessarily manage it. After all, this task depends on specific technical skills, which are not always found in the family group.

In the end, it's all a question of expectations, because when there is clarity about the parameters regarding profit sharing, prospects for advancement in internal positions, and business direction, tempers tend to calm down, avoiding the weakening of family ties and many other conflicts that can prevent the company from prospering.
Seeking to adopt governance systems will only make the market see the movement in a positive light, whether it is the professionalization of people, processes and general business management policies. As if that weren't enough, with the general improvement in organization and image, your family business tends to be more attractive to young talents, with the potential for innovation and adaptation to changes in scenario and technology. With the right corporate governance strategy, family businesses can be successful.
