I have had debates on here about various issues. One of the debates was about why Africa is always in disarray.
So I talked to a guy from Nigeria and asked him why?
He looked at me and said.
It's simple of why Africa is in bad shape. He said....
Too many difference of opinions of how things should be. He said for example.
In Nigeria. There are over 500 different tribes. With various languages and cultures.
I told him my doctor was from Nigeria to. He said... What is his name.
I told him.
He goes.
Ah... an EBO man with a smile.
I said what's the smile about.
He said.. No offense to your doctor. But we DON'T TRUST EBO guys.
I said why..
He said they are shady and are money hustlers.
I said wow.
He said there are tons of African tribes that HATE EACH other.
Basically he said it's no different than DIE HARD LIBERALS fighting against DIE HARD CONVERSATIVES.
He said.. just imagine if there were 500+ political parties all with various thought processes. He said how much in fighting would there be.
He said. it has nothing to do with intelligence or anything like that.
He said it's all about ego. Such as "Our tribe" is better then your "tribe".
I thought this was interesting.
How can you organze with you have 500 different tribes that don't see eye to eye on things?
Even if you have everyone who is a genius. That still wouldn't work. People would fight of who is the smartest in the room.
In order to work as a team. You need STRUCTURE.
Most of the people that work in the team aren't the super smart people. They are the FOLLOWERS and TASK DOERS that take orders from the smart people.
Think about Walmart for example. Most of their employees aren't some genius types.
Most of them do basic task.
When you say organize to stop them.
There are STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES and TACTIAL OBJECTIVES.
Ok..
If you have 500 different tribes with different languages.
Please tell me which tribe's langauge will become the dominate one to lead? How would 500 different tribes.
Form a STRATEGIC team in order to work together? When they speak different languages?
Agreed
