Look on Udemy/Coursera for courses. If you aren't already a master BIWS excel/PPT courses are gold and will shave hours of inefficiency each week.

Also study sales training materials. It will make you better both at recruiting and should you ever make VP or higher.

Hi & welcome.
Tell me your stories. Why made you decide to choose a career that's different and creative? I'll start. I am an extrovert. I am not very keen of studying and that, ideally is the reason why engineering or medical was not my cup of tea. I chose Journalism and Mass Media. In the academics, we had multiple subjects and one of them was Writing for media. This was the beginning. This is where I thought I can be a writer. A Content Writer. Besides this, I am love Rhyming Words.
