Work aspirations and backgroundI thrive in an international environment that offers varied tasks and challenging new opportunities. Good interpersonal skills have been an important asset when dealing with different acquisition and merger situations and in working in a professional organisation. I am used to joggling with several large projects simultaneously and feel that my strength is to see the forest from the trees. I feel that communications has an important role in advancing business operations and diffusing organisational messages. Also, as the world becomes a place with more and more choices, successful communications plays an integral part in all that we do and how well we will achieve our goals.
