** Nobody is irreplaceable ** In the meeting room of a multinational the nervous director talks to his management team. He shakes his hands, shows graphs and, looking into each one's eyes, threatens: “nobody is irreplaceable”. The phrase seems to echo off the walls of the meeting room in the silence. The managers look at each other, some lower their heads. Nobody dares to say anything. Suddenly, an arm is raised and the director prepares to answer the cheeky: – Any questions? - Yes I have. - Can! -And Beethoven? - As? – the director looks confused. – You said that no one is irreplaceable and who replaced Beethoven? Silence… The employee then speaks: – I've been hearing this story for some time. After all, companies talk about discovering talent, retaining talent, but, deep down, they continue to think that professionals are pieces within the organization and that, when one leaves, all they have to do is find another one to replace it. Who replaced Beethoven? Tom Jobim? Ayrton Senna? Gandhi? Frank Sinatra? Santos Dumont? Monteiro Lobato? Skin? Albert Einstein? All these talents have marked history by doing what they like and what they know how to do well, that is, they made their talent shine. And, therefore, they are irreplaceable. Every human being has his contribution to make and his talent directed towards something. It is time for leaders of organizations to review their concepts and start thinking about how to develop their team's talent by focusing on the brightness of their strengths and not using energy in repairing their 'mistakes/deficiencies'. Nobody remembers or cares if Beethoven was deaf, if Picasso was unstable, Caymmi lazy, Kennedy egocentric, Elvis paranoid... What we want is to feel the pleasure produced by symphonies, works of art, memorable speeches and unforgettable melodies, the result of their talents. . It's up to the leaders of your organization to change the way they look at the team and focus their efforts on discovering each member's strengths. Make everyone's talent shine for the success of their project. If your manager/coordinator, is still focused on 'improving the weaknesses' of his team, he runs the risk of being that type of leader/technician, who would stop Garrincha for having his crooked legs, Albert Einstein for having low grades in school, Beethoven for be deaf. And in his administration the world would have lost all these talents. Following this reasoning, if they could change the natural course, the rivers would be straight, there would be no mountains, no ponds or caves, no men or women, no sex, no bosses or subordinates… Just pieces. So never forget: You are a unique talent… for sure no one will replace you! “I am one, yet I am one. I can not do everything, but I can do something. Because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the little I can.” "In the world there will always be people who will love you for who you are..., and others..., who will hate you for the same reason..., get used to it..., with great tranquility...". It's good to reflect and appreciate yourself! #fanclub ** Hey you there?! you know what's better than marathon on netflix?!
