When he walks into a room, you can feel his presence. Simon does not only look in the presence, but in the future as well. He told our curriculum, ask yourself ever year what does success look like in 1 year? How about in 10 years? Simon k todays that the universe of discourse is always adapting and is telling us we have to adapt with it if we inadequacy to be successful.Simon is also always trying to wedge violate.

He has particularly worked as a CEO or another leader position and has succeeded with his unsurpassed networking ability in he eyes of stakeholders.Overall, I believe Simon is a great CEO and a natural innate(p) leader. 2. I believe that the company, Cubit Consulting, Simon is leading right now is successful. Although it has its up and downs, Simon is keen to hire brilliant people and grown his argumentation. One marker that Simonys business is going well is that it grew significantly from 200 to 2,000 people in vindicatory 4 years. No business would grow that rapidly without a great demand for the business that they do. I also believe Simon has the ability to alimentation this company on top with his managerial skills along with his banking kills and salesman skills. 3. Eel like I would definitely want to work for this company because I would learn a lot. Simon has had an exponential amount of experience with many different aspects of business and I belief if I took away just 10% of what Simon has learned being in the business world, I will be close to industrious to running my own business. Along with the experience would take from the job, would take the political theory of Simon along with me as well. Know no average person can turn a company back around faster than Simon. If could learn Simonys ideology on how he gets things back on track ND deals with conflict, it would do wonders for me.Overall, I believe if I worked for this company, it would prepare me for whatever I wanted to do in the business world . 4. This company does face some challenges in the next five years. The employees that are working for Simon as of now have no alternative to the best at what they do. The employees expertness want to work in one aspect of the business but they might be the best at another aspect and Simon believes it is hard to change over his employees of that. Another thing would be arming a group of people who challenge each other but share similar ideals within the company.The last challenge would have to be trying to build innate networks and alliances, which is rattling hard. Some of these challenges seem daunting but I believe Simon help to conquer these challenges in no time. 5. This company does face some opportunities in the next five years. Simon believes that his employees are getting better and better at work and thinks they are adapting and learning from the tasks that are assigned from them. hope this is very important for a company because if you stay stagnant, you will not l earn from previous mistakes.Simon also believes an opportunity he could grasp would to help his employees and himself would be to delegate and train more rather than just do. 6. Simon gave our class some great advice for business in the future. Some advice he gave was, it doesnt consequence how good you are, if the business is going the wrong way, you wont be successful get into a business or industry that is going the right way and you are more likely to be successful. I thought this was very reasonable advice. Another piece of advice he gave was, to become a successful entrepreneur you have to have the confidence in yourself to believe you can make a difference. Simon also believes in repairing for the worst and said to build in your strategy that something will go wrong. He said, 10% of life is what happens to you. 90% of life is what you do about it. Always have a plan B, you never know whats going to happen. I think this advice has actually helped me with my thinking in ma ybe trying to manage conflict in the future. Sometimes I cannot effect what has happened to me but I can do something about it and respond positively to the negative things that happen to me in life. Overall, I think his advice and expertise has taught me a ton in this interview.
