I am a person who can ask the right questions, make decisions, and take action - complex or simple, quantitative or qualitative, corporate or SMME, strategic or tactical, high-tech or low-tech. I am trained to provide both decision-makers with the answers they need and to personally make informed decisions or to implement marketing-based actions. My MBA training and wide-ranging experience has given me the analytic and practical techniques and know-how to create business focused real world solutions in a timely manner. My experience and successes include the following: • I have performed broad analyses of the local industries and have assisted in marketing sales and communication functions in various sectors. • I have gained detailed strategic and functional insights into the local Internet population in terms of their needs, wants and drivers both functional and intrinsic. • I intimately understand the internet and new media, from a technical to a functional level, as a needs state provider to a strategic and necessary tool for doing business globally and locally. • I have consulted to both large and small companies on marketing strategy and functional ideas. • I have examined the status and future of the country's current context and the global impact on our local market. • I have managed projects large and small, and have handled customer accounts both on a strategic and functional level. • I have been intimately involved in entrepreneurial ventures. • I have worked with both government departments and large private sector companies. • I continue to lecture in the IMM marketing program teaching the next-generation of marketing students. I will help define the future with the visionaries, pioneers and the leaders of tomorrow; either leading or at their side as a colleague.
