When you start your career in sports management, there might be some additional opportunities that come to your desk.   You might be offered the chance to join some short-term projects outside of your current responsibilities!   These projects may involve organising various events such as: ·      Matches & tournaments 🏆 ·      Conferences and workshops 🗣️ ·      Important meetings and congresses🤝 ·      Draws or any other official ceremonies 🎉   Don’t be afraid to take on new challenges because this will help you to: ·      Demonstrate your best qualities and leadership skills 🌟 ·      Meet new colleagues and expand your network 🤝 ·      Obtain new skills and qualifications 📚 ·      Increase your confidence level 💪 ·      Grow as a professional 📈 ·      Get a promotion! 🚀   So, take on the challenge with courage and move forward!   During my career in football, I have been involved in many interesting projects... ...once, I even served as the translator for the famous John Toshak, Head Coach of the Welsh National Team, during a live press conference... 📺 ... but this is already another story 😅

📌 Bonus: While taking new responsibilities it is important to not forget: -         about your core business, so its not damaged -         to be realistic about your capacity. Taking on too much at once can lead to troubles!

Very true but at times you get a project that almost eats up the time of your core activities but it’s good platform for you to realize your ability I was once an Stadium announcer for a match upto now I wonder how i did it
