PERSONAL REFLECTIONS

This is the last week of lessons and especially my last week of lessons here in UBC. This final post should involve reflections about the video or the marketing plan in general; for me, instead, this post was useful to reflect about my whole experience here in UBC.

When I arrived in January I was catapulted into a new reality, everything was completely different: food and culture obviously, but also lessons, classes and modality of exams. I have never worked on a team project before and after these four months I think this is a really efficient way to develop some relational and communication skills. Actually I was really lucky with my team, we worked really hard but at the same time we had a lot of fun; they helped my to integrate in this new “world” and I learned a lot from them. Recording and editing the video was the hardest and the longest part, especially because we didn’t pleased, we wanted to do the best. We rented microphones and the tripod for the camera and we booked a digital media room. I didn’t even know it was possible! Everyone said the own idea and we put them all together to obtain that one that is our final version. Enthusiasm, organization, initiative, cooperativeness, listening and participating skills characterized our group; it wasn’t easy to match our commitments and find a time to meet, but we divided the work, we confronted and helped each other in a very efficient way. We did the best and in my opinion the result is pretty good! I’m really satisfied and I wouldn’t change anything! Lululemon wasn’t an easy company and I didn’t know anything at all about it! As me, also other members had never heard about it, we visited the store to try to get a feel of the culture and it really worked!

When I’ll be back in Italy I’ll have a really good memory about it and obviously I can say I learned something new and really important for my career. Thanks guys!
