Know the Script

Know the Script…

When you become a part of an organization you must become acquainted with the language of that organization.

The language of an organization is how the entity communicates. Communication is possibly the biggest stepping stone or stumbling block any company will encounter.

Communication is an expression of language… Internally and externally…
Verbally, Physically (facial expression or body position) or in WRITTEN FORM.

Written form can seen in the form of a script…

The script can be found in the employee handbook. Before you add to or try to remove the script, you must learn, know and HONOR the story line. You must also HONOR those who have come before you and those who are set in positions of authority. These individuals dispense the script accordingly (in conversation and indeed).

The script is line upon line… And assists in building a solid foundation…
Invest your time and money (CASH) in the foundational principles…

Key: You must know your lines, and be able to improvise. Many situations that you will encounter won’t go according to the script, but if you know your lines you will be able to make solid decisions in any unforeseeable circumstance.

When you are in the field, you may not be able to refer to the script by handbook.
This is why you must familiarize yourself with your lines INSIDE OUT.

When you know the script, the communication of the organization will no longer be a foreign language to you… You be able to hear, understand and respond in your native language..

First you have to leave the block..
You must leave your country… to go into another time zone!

Story-lines…

All movies have storylines, actors and actresses. Many story lines convey the end (OBJECTIVE / GOAL) at the beginning. Each actor or actress must know the script in order to properly convey the storyline. The words (or script) are translated into ACTION (The plot).

If they haven’t mastered the script, there will be multiple TAKES.

TAKE 1! – TAKE 2! – TAKE 3! – TAKE 4!

Multiple takes occur when actors and actresses don’t know their lines.
Poor lighting can be an issue…

They have yet to understand…
They have yet to perfect their craft..
They have yet to perfect their serve…

When multiple takes occur, this adds excessive time to the production of the film.

And time is MONEY (CASH)!
