Dear alumni of LUBS Maketing Division

Here is a message from Caterina Presi you might be interested in:

Hello former students (or current ones), I hope you are doing wonderfully wherever you are.

I am looking for a guest speaker(s) for my social media marketing module for next year with working experience of Weibo/WeChat or other social media from specific locations (basically not the mainstream western ones such as Facebook or Instagram). I know that reaching out on Facebook seems to make little sense, but that's were I have most of my alumni connected.

If you know of anyone working in the sector please pass on my invitation and am more than happy to speak to them separately on email. If you are the person for me, then please DM me. You know that I like to celebrate your success and give you the opportunity to pass on your wisdom!

Thank you!😀

Feel free to DM us if you are interested!

The Entrepreneur Mindset event – Think like an entrepreneur, run your career like a business

Leeds University Business School students and alumni attended a virtual event on the 17th March to listen to and share conversations with expert panellists about their experiences and the benefits of developing and utilising and entrepreneur mindset in your career.

The event was organised by MA in Corporate Communications, Marketing and PR students supported by Lynn Pattison, Professional Development Tutor and Caterina Presi, Programme Director. It discussed the importance of these skills in a changing world. Having the ability to respond positively to uncertainty can create new opportunities. Knowing your own brand, building your networks, learning from challenges, being creative in your thinking all contribute to developing an entrepreneurial mindset.

Well done to the students: Vartika Chandola, Keir Thompson, Shijun Ma, Mengying Fan, and Lauren Bellis and many thanks to our panellists, Grant Mercer, Larry Raubach, Niraj Kumar, Joselyn Rankin and Alannah Chauhan for their excellent insight and advice.
