Yesterday, I had the opportunity to watch Cirque du Soleil for the first time. It was incredible. In all MBA and case studies, we learn about them and the way they recreated a Blue ocean for the old circus business. And seeing this in practice is incredible. The key takeaways are: - Reuse the existing businesses processes for reference only but build your own path. - Don’t focus on the people that don’t perceive your value. Instead, create value for those who appreciate you. - Practice your art no matter how good you are, all the time. Leave no room for mistakes that may cost your life and your teammates lives. - Create an experience all the time no matter what you deliver. Have you seen them before? What did you learn ? #cirquedusoleil #career #careerinhealthcate #productmanagement

"What is it you actually do?" 👀 This is THE DREADED QUESTION I often encounter when meeting new people 😭 Can anyone else relate to having to explain a diverse skillset? I have a background that spans marketing, operations, events, project management, themed attraction design and location-based entertainment (LBE) creative direction. Explaining that I can create high-end graphics and marketing materials, design themed attractions, create magical moments, plan what's going to be 'the next big thing' and also guide their operations can sometimes leave people puzzled... including me 😂 It’s like being a Swiss Army knife in a world where people are used to specialists in one specific field. But here’s the catch – in the themed attraction world, this multidisciplinary expertise is not just useful, it’s a huge bonus 👏 Being able to design an attraction is one thing, but understanding how to work with operational teams to maximize its efficiency and knowing the best ways to market it to audiences is what I firmly believe sets me apart, and it's something I'm incredibly proud of! It's my USP. It's a unique blend that pays off in an industry where these elements are so closely intertwined. Especially for clients with tighter budgets than the bigger players 👌 At present, I'm working on some truly incredible experiences with the amazing team at Xperience Unlimited - all of which are soon to be announced, including a super exciting project for Camel Creek Family Theme Park with delivery partners Playscheme 😍 So, I'm curious... 🤔 Does anyone else find it challenging to explain their diverse skillset to those outside their industry? How do you navigate the waters of being a 'Jack of All Trades' in a world that often expects you to be a master of one? #Multidisciplinary #ThemedAttractions #CareerChallenges #SkillsetDiversity

My first year at hostz Hospitality AG It was around this time a year ago that Alexandros Tyropolis asked me if I wanted to take over the lead of hostz and partner with him in founding the company. I still vividly remember how I could not believe what he had just asked me. Only about ten months earlier, I had joined the company as an intern. Being given such an opportunity is both exciting and scary. Every day felt like a sprint—but a never-ending one—as everything was new. The hardest part was my constant questioning whether I was right for this role. However, I kept going as I knew growing into this role would take time. I had amazing support from my family, friends and my closest network. A turning point came after around six months when I finally felt like I was allowed to be proud of being in this job. The team around me was shaping up, and we were celebrating the onboarding of our first clients, while also improving financially and qualitatively our existing hotels’ performances. I’d say there are two main parts to this experience: 1. It never ends being challenging. As each day, week, month my job requirements change.  2. Once you overcome your inner “fear/imposter” feeling, this is actually extremely fun and rewarding! 😄 This may also be the reason why it did take me until now to actually share this post. I am now however more than ever excited to be where I am - build hostz alongside Alex and an amazing team. #HospitalityStartup #BusinessGrowth #FastLearning

🌟 1 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐟 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚 𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧… I had my first JustPlay anniversary at the start of June and I really feel like sharing more about the last 12 months. Honestly, when I said yes to the role back in February 2023, it was a totally emotional decision. I had no idea what I was getting myself into (and many friends jumped in to warn me that everything looked too good to be true 😅), but something in my gut told me to go for it. After a short 2-month break, I was ready to dive into this small, non-descriptive startup in the hyper-casual gaming industry – a completely new industry for me. Already on my first day I was invited to a welcome dinner that went well past my bedtime (not such a big achievement, given that I go to bed at 9pm these days), that should have been a spoiler alert for what was to come. What followed were countless team lunches (I still feel nostalgic when I look back at the time when we could all fit on the balcony at lunch in our old office), and the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of building a team for an already successful product. Looking back on this year, it's been full of highlights: launching our JP Talks (a personal highlight for me every month, as everyone that has worked with me knows that I love this kind of meeting, but is also an opportunity for all of our JustPlayers to come together), organising our first offsite in Abu Dhabi as a one-women show (this deserves its own post!), moving offices, implementing new processes, adding local and global employee benefits, and welcoming many (many!) new JustPlayers to the team. Just like that first dinner, I still have so much fun in my job - with our remote global team and our local one. Trusting my gut and making that emotional decision turned out so much better than I could have ever expected. I get to spend time working with (what I dare say) is probably one of the most dedicated team out there. Here’s to another amazing year!

Reflecting on an Incredible Journey: Four Years of Growth, Learning, and Transformation ✨ As my college years come to an end, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey that has shaped my life, attitude, and mindset. These past four years have been a blend of hard work, growth, and invaluable experiences that have equipped me with both technical and soft skills. Key Milestones and Experiences: 🌟Member OC at Co Impact (1 Year): I began my journey by taking on the role of a member in the Organizing Committee at Co-Impact. Here, I was responsible for organizing and coordinating events, which honed my event management skills and taught me the importance of teamwork and meticulous planning. 🌟Vice Head Operations at Co Impact (1 Year): My role evolved as I took on the position of Vice Head of Operations. I was responsible for planning events from A to Z, a role that significantly boosted my leadership skills and strategic thinking. 🌟Manager OC at BLSA : I then moved to BLSA as a OC Manager, where I led a diverse team of 10 leaders across HR, PR, social media, and fundraising. This role was pivotal in developing my management skills and understanding the dynamics of leading a large team. 🌟Video Editor and Videographer at Atwa Hacks: Finally, I shifted my career path to follow my passion for video editing and videography with the Atwa Hacks team. This role was an incredible and amazing experience, allowing me to find my niche and further develop my creativity and technical expertise. The journey has been long and challenging, but every step was useful and enriching. I am incredibly proud of the person I have become and am excited about the future, armed with the skills and experiences I have gained ❤️ Here's to the end of one chapter and the beginning of another🚀 #Proud #CollegeJourney #StudentActivities #Leadership #EventManagement #VideoEditing #CareerGrowth
