I really enjoy making a positive difference to both our internal and external clients by ensuring good communication. I find great satisfaction in raising Citadel’s brand awareness at every touchpoint.
Everyone is concerned about the economy and what the “new normal” will be in a post Covid-19 world, how long remaining lockdown restrictions will remain in place, and when – or even whether – there will be a vaccine.
Like most people who are privileged enough to have jobs, it has become even busier now that most of us are working online from home. Work is really invigorating: I need to generate ideas, discuss concepts/requests, liaise with my team and our external partners and service providers, attend meetings and address a minimum of 100 emails per day.
Well, it’s more a case of what my grandmother wanted me to be: a doctor or a lawyer! I did get my LLB(Hons) degree but I am now a practising marketing strategist.
Goodness, I can’t pinpoint “the best advice ever” per se. I can only say that I always seek the best advice whenever I’m faced with a choice or challenge in life.
I would still choose this job. I feel like I already have other “jobs” that fulfil me immensely too (mother, sister, aunt, friend).
Prepare, prepare, prepare, so that when the opportunity presents itself you can grab it with both hands. Be professional and real. Try to dig deeper to know yourself, surround yourself with people who can help you to grow. Be circumspect in all your dealings. When you make mistakes, use them as a learning opportunity and grow.
I take long walks along the beach, listen to music, read, watch movies or a gripping series.
