Now, my position at Swarovski is a complete about-face, and my first step into management. It encompasses every aspect of management, including sales and marketing, thanks to its retail orientation. Opportunities come when you least expect them, and I always welcome new challenges. Change is good, and growth is better. Both allow you to always learn new things.
Time management is a huge challenge, present in every aspect of life.
Training is huge in this industry, as in most. Meeting the needs of each training encounter is the biggest challenge I face. Minors were Management and Psychology. It forced students to familiarize themselves with companies for which they might later be interested in working, through papers, projects, and contact. We didn't have a sales course option at the time.
