PRODUCTIVITY CORNER

The first thing I'd like to ask is: How would you describe yourself in an elevator pitch? Like, if you were to be in a moving elevator with a stranger, how would you make yourself memorable, featuring all aspects of your life and essence?

I'm a dynamic media specialist with a passion for strategic marketing and brand communication. As a creative powerhouse, I bring ideas to life visually, ensuring your brand's message captivates your audience through compelling storytelling. From ideation to implementing growth strategies and handling PR, I thrive in dynamic environments, ensuring your brand stands out.

So, what do you do? Your career path?

I'm a growing Marketing Executive involved in strategy, implementation, and brand communications for a cutting-edge Reward-Tech Company, CashToken, home to Africa's First National Reward Program. Beyond my corporate role, I channel creativity into crafting compelling visuals through photography and film, enhancing the brand narratives for both corporate entities and individuals.

How do you find the time to handle two very different career paths? Do you feel like you have enough time?

Balancing my corporate role with a hybrid schedule allows me to seamlessly take on bookings as a creative, specialising in photography and film. Simultaneously, as an active JCI member, I contribute to fostering positive local impact. Let’s just say skillful time management and prioritisation are my keys to harmoniously integrating these diverse roles and responsibilities.

What's a typical work day like for you?

In my corporate capacity, my day is a dynamic mix of meetings with partners, overseeing departmental activities, and collaborating with the team on campaign strategies or implementation. The unpredictable nature of marketing and communications means I often find myself involved in various aspects across the company. On my creative days, you'll likely find me immersed in photography and film, capturing moments and crafting visual narratives to enhance brand messages. It's a diverse blend, and adaptability is key to navigating both worlds seamlessly.

So, you would say you don't have a five-day work week?

Nope, I work every day, either for myself or the office... Plus, remote work days doesn't mean work-free.

So, how do you ensure that you stay productive? Any proven hacks or tips?

Two main tips:

▪︎ Focus on the positives

▪︎Don't overthink
