Change Management

Ideally, I consider myself quite apt at managing change, so much so that I started my first venture providing change management consultancy. After working for about 8 years in Training, Quality Management and Business Re-designing related domain, I find myself ever so ready to get in Advertising; that too seriously. I am joining a leading ad agency as an intern first and then intend to chart out my plan of moving ahead in this sector post my intern-ship. And boy! I am no doubt looking forward to it, since entertainment media has been my area of interest ever since I can remember, but my heart tugs at me every once in a while to look at the 8 years I spent developing myself in a completely different domain.

This is going to be a challenge for me, at the age of 26, doing what I genuinely want to and succeeding at it. What I did for 8 years ,I did initially, out of necessity, and later since I had done it for so long. Strategy Planning had always been a part of my life - here or there. What is different here is that I will be dealing with emotions. Strategising them to achieve a goal - in this case an ad campaign. I am excited, as I was when I got my first promotion :) This is indeed promotion-like - from understanding numbers to understanding humans.
