Opportunity

If you could trade jobs with one person at SHM for a week who would it be and why?

Trading places with a fellow SHMer would be a great experience. If I were granted such an opportunity, I would take advantage of it to gain more knowledge in my area of study, marketing. As a co-op, we are given large responsibilities, tasks and deadlines we are expected meet. However, there are positions in the marketing department, which hold even greater responsibilities and demand higher expectations. That is why if I could, I would trade positions with Ashley to become the Senior Marketing Manager for a week. Ashley holds a managerial position, meaning she is able to oversee marketing and make sure the department is working up to potential, effectively and efficiently. This would be a great experience, for one day I would like to land a senior marketing position, similar to where Ashley is at today. Learning the appropriate methods to manage budgets, approve documents and advertisement and also, dealing with Perfexion handling the web metrics is all extremely useful information to gain. Overall, learning how to manage a marketing team would be the most intriguing aspect of the position.
