PUBLIC SPEAKING FEAR AND DANGER TO CAREER ADVANCEMENT

Spread the love

Mr. Richard Thompson (not real name) was a Marketing Manager in XYZ Company in Lagos, Nigeria between 1992 and 1998. He was highly focused and had the ambition of becoming the CEO of the company through diligence and self-development embroidered with a large dose of interpersonal skills.

But Richard had one impediment across the path of his career advancement, which he failed to proffer a timely solution to. This was fear of public speaking and business presentation. Anytime he was asked to address a large gathering of customers or stakeholders, he would avoid the responsibility by giving one excuse or another and delegate the task to one of his subordinates, versed in the art of public speaking and business presentation.

Soon, through repeated presentations, the eloquent subordinate became the most intellectually respected staff member in the Marketing Department and was much preferred by the management and cherished by customers.

Later, the management considered Richard redundant as a boss and decided to allow the articulate subordinate to take charge of the department because of his charisma occasioned by competence and eloquence. Rather than sack Richard, the management gave him soft landing by instructing him to report to the subordinate. Richard subsequently took an honourable decision of resigning.

NOTE: The smooth sail of his career was prematurely terminated in the company due to his failure to find a timely solution to his public speaking fear. You don’t have to experience this as you climb your career ladder to the top.
