I'm offering
I once went to an interview in 2011 and was asked the most common question ever; where do you see yourself in 10 years time? My answer was I saw myself as an accomplished professional, multiskilled in all areas of communications, strategy, events, marketing, public relations publishing and reporting. Today I am skilled in all of these areas and more. My stakeholder management skills have been frequently commended as well as my ability to take on a project and deliver to tight timeframe and budget. I am reliable and trustworthy. Therefore when I take on a piece of work you can expect that I will deliver to high standard.
