CEMS Business Consultancy Project

I was part of the first Success Graduate Program at Salesforce. A unique 12-month experience for diverse graduate talent in various full-time roles within the services and technical sales organisations within Salesforce. It offered continuous development and growth opportunities centered on comprehensive learning paths, direct involvement in customer engagements, coaching and mentoring programs, and challenging career opportunities, all while being part of an international community.

As the corporate committee we were the link between the CEMS students at Smurfit and the corporate partners, as well as other companies that were interested in a relationship with the CEMS Club. We organised company visits, skills seminars, corporate lunches, case studies, and other related activities. My main responsibility was the organisation of a 'start-up day', for the CEMS students from the Rotterdam School of Management and the CEMS students from the Michael Smurfit Business School, when the students from Rotterdam visited Dublin for a tech-tour.

Fetola exists in order to make a positive difference in South Africa, by stimulating the growth of the small business sector. Our vision ‘to change lives for the better, forever’ arises from the belief that no-one is fully empowered unless they have the ability to generate the money they need to live. We see the small business sector, incorporating NGOs and community-based projects, as the ideal vehicle for the sustainable empowerment of people." During my internship I was responsible for all business support on the Graduate Asset Programme (GAP), managing advertising campaigns, research and data analysis, HR support, Business and Project Operations as well as Enterprise Development.
