Conference Director

Nov 2010 - Dec 2012
As Conference Director, I plan, produce and manage the conferences and/or trainings for Goldman Communications. I work closely with the sales and marketing team to ensure events' commercial viability. Although I'm based in Malaysia, I'm able to produce conferences for Goldman Communications from a distance because I'm able to communicate well with the local speakers in India and the feedback that I received with information pertaining to the subject matter has always been useful when producing conferences.
