Summary

I acquire strong management skills developed from working as a team leader at Ibrahim boutique. This hands-on experience taught me the importance of leading my team through tough ventures such as the pandemic and effectively delegating tasks. This led to a significant increase in our revenues while also balancing my studies. Working at Ikea, I have been equipped with strong sales skills by partaking in advanced training on customer interaction, product knowledge and sales strategies. I have developed a keen understanding on how to sell products and offering tailored solutions that enhance shopping experience for customers driving sales. Constantly working in fast paced environments has taught me the importance of not only leading a team but also working collaboratively and communicating effectively with those around me.
