AFD (Associate Forum with Directors) started with our Director Mr. Emmanuel asking about what is happening in the global world in which the reply was the Queen of England's death . He asked about why it is a prominent news affecting the global world and that is because the Queen was relevant and because of the role she had played in history in her lifetime.

Sentinel is an organization so committed with what we do. Every season and decision in Sentinel comes with its uniqueness and for things to change, people have to take advantage to the opportunities provided to justify why they are here.

SECTION 1: DISCUSSION.

This section was an interactive one where Dir. Emma talked about the phase we are in business where there are things we need to look at and plan critical based on feedback and experience as we move to set up and step up things.He said majority of the people who approach Sentinel to buy from us do so because they trust us that their land will be there.They are concerned about security and not development and it is a marketing tool for us to harness as people want to invest in land for it to appreciate; most clients are into land banking. Know what works in your environment and use it to your advantage.

With that being said, he ask associates whom from their engagement with their prospects the locations Sentinel currently has now:

• which one people are more interested in.
• Why are they buying?
• Why do you think they will buy more

To this, some associates called out Festac, Ibeju lekki and Okemoro as the locations we have that clients are interested in.

Then, Dir. Emma asked which locations we do not have that prospects are also interested in and there were mentions of Iyana isashi, Abule Ado (Lagos state), Agbo( Delta state),Umuahia and Aba ( Abia State), Oba, Orlu and Nnewi North ( Anambra state)

SECTION 2: Branch Associates review

The branch associate structure is proactive and effective. With this, the management has come up with reviews that will enhance what we do in the branches. So henceforth, every branch will have:

• Monthly financial allocation of N50,000 going forward for their activities to support movement and other logistics which is subject to review.
• Every branch should have their activities, target and plans for the month submitted to help management share their experience and follow up on the the things done.
• Branch report must be submitted every month so the management knows what has been done and where to come in and help.
• Monthly incentives a branch based on a certain percentage of the agreed sake target per month still continues aside the N50k support. Branch manager should take note.

SECTION 3 Takeaway on the 3 principles you don't joke with if you hope to continue in this business.

• PARACHUTE PRINCIPLES: This principle obeys the law of individualism. Much as it offers some advantages, you need to avoid because it is not what you need in this business.This is a business of the people and in this business,you need to engage (network).
• CONVERGENCE PRINCIPLE: This is a principles that address competition.It promotes the law of partnership.It is an antidote of unity and supports the scripture that says one will chase a thousand and two will chase ten thousand."If you want to go far,you go with people.
• MENTORSHIP PRINCIPLE: There is a saying that if you want to see far, you have to stand on the shoulder of those who are going to where you want to go. You need useful information that can help you and someone who understands where you are going,can query your performance and push you to where you are going. If nobody is overseeing what you are doing , checking your performance and checkmating your action, you won't go far. Accountability is very important and is a point of mentorship where you are willing to discuss and share idea on what is going on in your life and business.
