PP1 and PS1

To begin with, what are PP1 and PS1 in a corporate context? PP1 is Preparer 1 [This person does the work. He/She is the brains BEHIND it all] wonder why they are not on the FRONT page..... PS1 is Presenter 1 [This person adds the sexiness to the hard work already done by PP1 and become the face of it to an audience] In many organizations, you will find both. PP1 is like diamond in the dirt. Valuable but inviscible. While PS1 is like the diamond earrings you wear on gala night. Valuable and visible. PS1 is typically valued over PP1. Why is this the case, you may wonder? Its because diamond in the dirt is not very valuable until discovered and even when found, a woman couldn't present/wear it in its dirty, raw form [PP1] on gala night. It becomes wearable in its new form [PS1]. PP1 is that person that just can't express/communicate all their inventions and need a PS1 to present them to the world. In the end, the world only remembers PS1s, though PP1 will get his reward,... someday. It is critical to learn and possess the ability to express ourselves. This can be done, not just by big vocabulary but even simple words, that are clear enough, with the right amount of energy added to their voice and connection with audience. Watch any speech by Malaya Yousafazi on youtube and be inspired. As you build the brain power, remember PS1s. Build upon your ability to express your ideas, opinions to the world and get the reward you rightfully deserve.
