My experience with the Marketing Plan assignments
Apr 7th, 2013 by annemazin
Those marketing plan assignments were really interesting and were not exactly what I was expecting at the beginning of the semester. I actually think it was a good idea to not choose our teams so then we had to interact with individuals that were not our friends. As a result, it was more like a “professional” atmosphere that enabled the work instead of a too friendly one. Also, I think our team worked well and had a lot of good ideas. However, I have to admit I had a hard time feeling involved in the team as each member was fluent in English and most of the time, I did not have the time to formulate what I was about to say and explain my ideas. Until assignment 4, I also never felt that much support on that side and they probably thought it was just me who did not want to get too much involved in the team.
Those marketing plan assignments taught me that I was able to make research and being concise about the information. We had to deal with a lot of data but we had to find the right pieces of information that exactly linked with what we were asked for. I guess that next time, I would try to be more confident about my English to feel more involved in the team.
