Major Kudos

I will blog about my Chicago trip a little later but I just had to mention this morning...

An entire brand team was assembled this morning to hear a presentation...a presentation given by me. This is not the most important thing I have done at my job but it was the most exposure I have received with the agency so far - as in, it was great to get to show my talents to other agency people and there were several head people in this meeting.

I was put in charge of understanding a new website/research tool and was trying to communicate by e-mail my findings. Upon discussing this with another planner, I mentioned that the best way to get people acquainted (and to get them to pay attention) was to just do a quick tutorial.

So I took people through the tool this morning and it was received really well. People were interested in what it had to offer and asked me lots of questions. I was able to clearly and concisely explain everything I had found out.

And the best part...my supervisor gave me great feedback - kudos to me! :)

It's so exciting to know that I got in front of some important people, gave a well thought-out presentation, and was commended for my efforts. I hope to continue in this great direction for future presentations!
