APSMA Hong Kong: The Power of Potential

APSMA Hong Kong is pleased to invite you to the following lunch-time presentation, hosted by King & Wood Mallesons.

Are you wondering if you are getting enough out of your job or your team? Do you feel like you have more to offer but don’t know where to start? With there being no concept of a typical day in professional services marketing, finding time to manage your career can feel impossible, especially when your inbox is groaning under the weight of urgent requests for proposals, partner demands, team complaints and a directory submission or five…

This seminar is about much more than time management, though. Whether you want to get the most out of your current role, or are looking towards your next promotion, this session will provide you with tips to help you succeed.  Our speakers will provide insights into the skills which partners, BD directors and Chief Operating Officers would like to see in today's BD and Marketing teams.  Drawing on some of the principles of coaching and lessons (hard) learnt during their own careers in professional services marketing, they will share techniques to help you to unlock your potential while handling your day job and managing your team.Focusing on positive change, this session is aimed at BD and Marketing professionals of all levels of seniority - and enthusiasm.
