My Confidence is back...

It’s been 3 months since I started working for Novas Scarman I feel a lot better about my work and my skills. My confidence is back and I can express my ideas and know that they will be taken onboard and acted upon.
Like my plan to generate more business. This plan was the development of a cinema night at the CUC that is open to the staff and the public. I saw an opportunity and acted on it. It did take a while to put the action into place as I wasn’t too sure who was in charge of what in our department. I feel I have joined a really good team. I have met difference types of people outside of our marketing team who know a bit about something. I usually like to think of myself as a self proclaimed “know it all” but I have learnt a few new things about the use of social media and podcasting. To me these seemed like places that people went (online or radio) to have a moan about something and take no action. But I was shown by my boss that it could be used as a business to business communication tool. I was still unsure at first why businesses would want to use this tool. But with new media increasing in use, businesses have to adapt keep up with the trend of the customer.
I think I joined Novas Scarman at a good time, the organisation is currently looking at rebranding and as this was an area I wanted to go into when I left Uni. My boss has invited me along to the branding meeting to see what I can pick up and I have also been told about the opportunity to work one extra day a week at a new media agency.
Watch this space.
