In addition to traditional business skills such as: communication (digital and interpersonal), project management, event planning, public relations, marketing, digital media development, leadership, sales, financial management and cultural studies, I have a super power.
I am highly skilled at walking into a new environment and figuring out how to accomplish a goal. This often involves assessing the situation or culture, identifying key leaders, listening to verbal and non-verbal cues to see what can be offered in each situation, highlighting who needs extra attention, who needs to be honored, and who needs help. In short, I’m great at rolling with the punches and improvising to make sure the goal is accomplished.
