To Whom It May Concern: I have 24 years of experience in the IT, Telecoms and Broadcast environment, which includes Sales, Key Account Management, New Business Development and Product Management. I believe in creating strong business relationships with all of my internal and external clients. I have successfully managed several complex projects and have seen them through operational roll-outs, ensuring constant communication, updates, escalation management and driving results. I enjoy working both within, and across, complex systems and co-ordinating the activities of several business units. I appreciate working collaboratively with people but at the same time I do not mind working independently and I am most comfortable in settings that require a balanced mix of collaborative team leadership and directive leadership. I strive to pay attention to both on-going operations and creating plans for the future. I endeavour to focus on the broad strategy as well as the operational implications of the strategic direction taken. I work well in demanding circumstances and find it easy to work through distractions – and stay with a project until completion, balancing this with recognising when projects are not worth expending further resources. I maintain my composure in the face of difficulties by managing difficult situations in a balanced, adaptive way. I tolerate stress well and can maintain my performance under stressful situations by responding constructively to problems. I am proactive and quickly take initiative, I enjoy identifying new opportunities and I am always willing to do extra work and take on extra responsibilities. I adapt well to change in my work environment and I seek out variety. I excel in soliciting information when formulating plans and use this gathering of diverse opinions to gain a holistic picture. I am comfortable working with ambiguity and can act without having all of the details resolved. I enjoy solving problems and enjoy work that requires creativity and originality and I can easily generate new ideas and innovative solutions. I tend to focus on abstract, intangible issues – theories, models, viability of projects / programmes – and come up with creative, integrated, and abstract conceptual solutions. I take a logical approach to solving problems by analysing situations systematically to determine the causes and consequences. I enjoy analysing, comparing and catergorising various different elements of information and identify the relationships between them, and can successfully link different elements. I am a quick learner, and achieve this by learning via an innovative, integrative, systems approach by synthesising various abstract theoretical options into a model, which I then use to guide operational issues, monitoring consequences and to make the necessary adaptations. I am a dedicated and loyal worker and I have respect for my fellow employees. I am a creative thinker, I am a very meticulous worker that pays attention to detail and like to be organised in my work environment. I am a self-starter and a very tenacious person by nature. I am target driven and goal-orientated. I am passionate about my career and the development thereof, I believe that I will be an asset to you if you would be willing to give me the chance, and I look forward to your esteemed reply. Kind regards Monja Stieger
