Men in PINK: Joey Reiman’s Top 10

  1. BE A WOMAN, NOT A MAN: In the beginning, women were gatherers, and men the hunters. Who would you rather do business with? Someone who gathers the best people and knowledge for solutions or the guy that hunts you down?
  2. MENTORS BEAT TORMENTORS: Alpha males lead by intimidation and domination. The days of the steely-eyed-know-it-all-CEO are gone. You are the new CEO, the Chief Energy Officer responsible for bringing aliveness to the organization.
  3. DISCOVER YOUR COMPANY’S PURPOSE: The best organizations have a greater purpose beyond just the bottom line. Whether you are selling goods or services, make sure you are creating good and service, too.
  4. WEAR YOUR FAVORITE OUTFIT: A power suit is not blue. It’s you. When you wear your favorite outfit people favorite you, because they feel your confidence. So donate those clothes that don’t become you and buy a new outfit for the person you want to become.
  5. SURPRISE GETS THE PRIZE: Surprise people everyday with something new–vital ideas that stir their senses and imagination. Astonish your colleagues by being both relevant and unexpected. Their smiles will make their day and your career.
  6. STRIVE TO BECOME A FAMILLIONAIRE: Everything you achieve is a constellation prize for love. Real wealth is measured by the love you share with family and friends. Accumulate those and you can call yourself a famillionaire.
  7. READ MORE: Our output is only as good as our inputs. Read one poem, one recipe, one article and one book every week. A good read is a time machine that takes you to new lands where you meet inspiring people who will change your perspective forever and help you in your next meeting.
  8. LEAN ON: Enough with leaning in. The more valuable mantra is lean on one another. As the CEO of a woman run consultancy, I have learned that our success is the result of our associates working shoulder to shoulder.
  9. BUSINESS IS A MOTHER: Business is man made. And with that come ruggedness, competiveness and a hard work ethic. The qualities needed for modern business are kindness, cooperativeness and empathy—all maternal traits.
  10.  BE DARING: As I learned from Pink’s purpose, courage to do what you love, courage (from the French word Le Couer that means heart) is your greatest asset. Ditch the power point and become the point of power. Turn your idea into I did it. And most importantly, make sure that the path you are on is one with heart.
