Here I was focusing on grasping as much knowledge as possible. Deployment revolved around 5 key areas. These were: Communication, User Adoption, Change Management, Analytic, Project Management. It has helped me acquire the key elements to all of these areas as well as given me some time to be involved in other work-stream's activities.I have worked closely with the Client, the data stream, the Technology stream (Nielsen Insight Studio as well as Nielsen Answers Desktop/Portal), Commercial teams as well as many other, which helped me gather even more knowledge and made me eager to learn more.This position was a key to lay the founding pillars of my knowledge. It has given me self awareness as well as helped me evaluate my strengths and weaknesses. Global Deployment has greatly helped me in becoming a team-player with members and teams shattered across the world. It Enabled me to travel across the world to meet different clients and cultures as well as build the foundation for several key traits, such as Data Analytic, Soft skills (e.g. presenting, client engagements) and helped improve several areas where i was struggling, such as time management as well as "seeing the big picture" and therefore thinking "globally".
