It\u2019s April 2018, and it\u2019s the first day of the Executive Master in Strategic Marketing &amp; Communication (Part-Time) at IE University. At that moment, I had no idea how well the program would prepare me for my future in corporate comms and the next stage of my career.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, I work at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prisa.com\/en\">PRISA<\/a>, a top Spanish and Latin American media group, where I focus on corporate comms. There are countless ways the master\u2019s has benefited me on a personal level. But today, let\u2019s focus on some of the professional benefits I gained from this innovative program\u2014from hard skills to the joys of remote working and everything in between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-time-management-amp-relationship-building\">Time management &amp; relationship building<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>We all know the struggle of balancing studies, work, and life with varying degrees of success. When I started the program, I understood the importance of organization and communication, especially with teammates living in different time zones with different schedules. Learning how to arrange group meetings while simultaneously completing all individual and group assignments as well as participating in online forums and classes was quite the task!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few takeaways:<strong> learn how your teammates work. <\/strong>They\u2019re your safety net! Today, I can better connect with my coworkers, and together we remind each other of deliverables, share laughs, and work toward bigger goals. This is so important when you work in a fast-paced environment. Things change fast, and you\u2019ve got to react in turn. When you have a good relationship with your colleagues and have built a high-performance team, they\u2019re the ones who end up helping you find the best ideas for improving your content, every day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The corporate comms program prepares you for<strong> a work environment where you will continuously be multitasking.<\/strong> Using teamwork to manage my time and deliver the best results was\u2014and is\u2014essential in work and life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ready-for-remote\">Ready for remote<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking back at my time in a remote program,<strong> I never could have imagined how vital these skills would be in a global pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns right-image is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"740\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/How-the-Master-in-Corporate-Marketing-Communication-prepared-me-for-a-job-in-corporate-comms1.jpg\" alt=\"How the Master in Corporate &amp; Marketing Communication prepared me for a job in corporate comms\" class=\"wp-image-28014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/How-the-Master-in-Corporate-Marketing-Communication-prepared-me-for-a-job-in-corporate-comms1.jpg 740w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/How-the-Master-in-Corporate-Marketing-Communication-prepared-me-for-a-job-in-corporate-comms1-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/How-the-Master-in-Corporate-Marketing-Communication-prepared-me-for-a-job-in-corporate-comms1-150x97.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ie.edu\/uncover-ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/How-the-Master-in-Corporate-Marketing-Communication-prepared-me-for-a-job-in-corporate-comms1-585x379.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 740px) 100vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-in-march-2020-as-media-professionals-worldwide-began-to-work-from-home-in-improvised-offices-newsrooms-and-radio-studios-i-benefited-from-already-being-in-this-remote-mindset\">In March 2020, as media professionals worldwide began to work from home in improvised offices, newsrooms, and radio studios, I benefited from already being in this \u201cremote\u201d mindset.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The program taught me<em> how<\/em> and <em>when<\/em> to take the lead in situations where someone may be struggling to adapt to this style of working. By the time the pandemic began, Google Drive, Skype, and Zoom were already my best friends. The better acquainted I was with these technologies, the easier it was for me to adapt to my media job! Going from a noisy office with non-stop ringing phones to a home office full of Microsoft Teams meetings, constantly beeping messages, and phone calls was quite a transition!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diversity-is-key\">Diversity is key<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Executive Master in Strategic Marketing &amp; Communication is notoriously diverse. <\/strong>Working with so many people with different cultures, work histories, and experiences is one of the program&#8217;s cornerstones. Having this opportunity to learn how to navigate these differences makes students and alumni resilient later on in the professional world. I learned and developed a more profound collaboration capacity across different teams, which is crucial when developing projects involving international teams. Thinking about how employees could perceive internal communications or organizing the company&#8217;s participation in international fairs has helped me adapt in so many ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-navigating-corporate-comms-in-a-vuca-future\">Navigating corporate comms in a VUCA future<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s undeniable we\u2019re living in a time of VUCA\u2014a now-popular acronym that stands for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity. This was one of the first subjects we discussed in the <em>Internal Communications and Change Management <\/em>course, and the concept stuck with me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It seems almost surreal how much those four words encapsulate life today<\/strong>, especially within the media industry.Some days it almost seems like there isn\u2019t enough space in the news for so many historical events! 2020 was also a year where many Spanish media outlets ventured in digital pricing strategies, with digital subscription models becoming the new normal. Having learned about this in my <em>Customer-Centric Business and Digital Transformation<\/em> course, and preparing the final project for the company I work for, I was already excited to see how I could implement these changes at my job.
