Today marks the last day of my L'Oréal Boost journey and I am proud to say that I have completed 10 courses, 9 of which come with certifications! I have considered this a great learning opportunity and am happy to have completed all of them with scores of at least 95%. I was able to really hone in my traditional and digital #marketing skills, completing 4 certifications from Digital Marketing Institute, IE Business School, and Google. I am excited to apply them to my future career combining it with the knowledge of industry professionals’ day-to-day experiences. In addition, I was also able to explore one of my interests in #sustainability through three courses which have allowed me to understand that it is not as simple to “reduce, reuse, recycle” but to plan ahead and create sustainable cities and lifestyles. The courses from Columbia University, Università Bocconi, and Yonsei University provided diverse perspectives on what it means to be sustainable around the world. Lastly, UC Irvine courses were able to refresh my skills in #finance while learning how it connects to project management, adding to my practical #management skills. #lorealboost #lorealforyouth #loreal #digitalmarketing #projectmanagement

🚀 Exciting Journey at Audencia: Bridging Passion with Expertise! 🚀 Grateful and thrilled to share the incredible journey we embarked on this semester as a team at Audencia, where I pursued my first major, Marketing for Product Manager. 🎓 Special thanks to our amazing professors and the SC Johnson Company for providing this opportunity for us! 🌟 Our mission? Developing a successful marketing strategy in pest control and making mass-market relevant in the insect repellent business🌟 As the team leader, I had the privilege to collaborate with an exceptional and talented group of individuals who shared my passion for product management. Together, we delved into the intricacies of marketing strategies, applying our knowledge and learnings into practice, and adapting them according to the characteristics of the product, the consumer, and the market. 🏆 Now I am proud to announce that our team efforts were rewarded with a commendable 3rd place out of 15 teams, a testament to our collective dedication and hard work. 🏆 👨🏫 A heartfelt thank you to our esteemed professors, especially our coaches for this project: 👉 Pr. Latchezar Hristov - for guiding us through the intricacies of innovation and product development. 👉 Pr. Vincent Balusseau - for steering us towards an effective communication strategy and an integrated marketing campaign. 👉 Pr. Yanis Le Goff 🍇 - for shaping and structuring our bring-to-market strategy. 🙏 Hortense Lacoste and Sébastien CHAUVE, our discerning judges from SC Johnson Company, added a real-world perspective to our project. Their insights were invaluable in shaping our strategies and making informed decisions. This experience has not only enriched my understanding of marketing but has also provided me with the confidence to navigate the complex landscape of product management and it wouldn't have been the same without the unwavering support of my incredible teammates, professors, and judges. 🌐 “If the topic to which you are assigned isn't aligned with your interests or prior experience, consider it a positive opportunity. This situation allows you to explore diverse perspectives and acquire knowledge in new and unfamiliar areas” This is what Professor Michaela Merk, PhD told us when she was taking us on a journey into the world of luxury this semester during her course and it could not be any more true. Here's to the power of collaboration, continuous learning, and many more exciting challenges! 🚀👏 🌟#SCJohnsonChallenge2023 #Marketing #ProductManagement #Innovation #Teamwork #SuccessStory #AudenciaJourney #Gratitude #Branding 🚀

Just back from an enriching 4-day experience at the Axiata Young Talent Programme’s Young CEO Development Programme Bootcamp 2, which was all about process innovation and supply chain management. Explored the FMCG industry through the lens of QSR Brands, the powerhouse behind KFC, Pizza Hut, Ayamas, Life sauces and more. In the final challenge, our team secured 3rd place by proposing an idea to expand service coverage and enhance user experiences. We aimed to achieve this by directly supplying both large and small provision stores through their existing e-commerce platform. Yet, on the drive back, I couldn’t shake the feeling of a missed opportunity during the panel’s questioning; I had an answer in hindsight, but it was merely an assumption. There was a clear counterpoint. But I wish I just went with it. Ugh a frustration we all know too well. This experience reinforced the importance of not only excelling in our respective fields but also staying well-informed about current affairs to make informed decisions. I'm committed to investing more effort in keeping up with national and global current issues. And to all the remarkable young professionals - your energy, passion, and achievements are genuinely inspiring. Wishing all of you the best, and see you soon! 🚀💫

What an enriching day at Luiss Business School! Yesterday, during my International Marketing class, Tiago Santos, the General Manager of Danone for Central Asia, connected with us all the way from #Kazakhstan to #challenge, #inspire, and #coach our students. Here are some invaluable takeaways: 🚀 Managing global brands involves understanding the pain points and passions of local "tribes" to establish emotional connections. 🚀 Never underestimate the significance of local culture; overlooking it is the easiest way to make marketing mistakes. 🚀 Tiago shared a profound piece of advice: “If you're in your twenties and already have a clear vision of your future, fantastic! But if not, that's perfectly fine. Do not be in a rush. Embrace the journey, explore, fail, and discover your unique path”. 🚀 The importance of aligning personal values with the company you work for cannot be stressed enough. It makes your work more enjoyable and fulfilling. A big thanks to Tiago from all of us for sharing these pearls of wisdom! 🙏🏼 #LuissBusinessSchool #InternationalMarketing #humancentric
