"The skills that help me be the most successful are communication, strategy, and adaptability. Communication helps in being able to collaborate with a team to meet goals, along with building and maintaining relationships with clients. Strategy helps because, as a brand manager, you have to be able to think ahead. You have to understand and anticipate client needs and market trends and use this to plan a strategy that is long-lasting in its benefits for a company or business. I think adaptability is my most valuable skill because, within marketing, things can change quickly. Client needs, expectations, or market trends, and it's crucial to assess these changes and adapt accordingly to meet goals. "
