  1. I would build a marketing company that specializes in fashion marketing. Meaning that major fashion houses would advise us on their marketing as part of their campaign. This is of course not limited to just fashion and can be for restaurants or sports.

  2. I would like to lead a team of like minded individuals that all have a passion for getting messages across in different and creative ways. My team would be a collaborative one that bounces ideas off each other in order to improve and grow. My leadership will be an affiliative one where there is an emphasis on communication and harmony.

  3. Team growth would be assessed by how well campaigns were received. If a campaign is…

The main key takeaways derived from this presentation emphasize the significance of adopting a growth mindset, which proves instrumental in developing effective strategies and habits for various aspirations. A growth mindset not only assists in shaping individual habits and thoughts but also encourages a positive perspective on life's aspects. It was highlighted that cultivating a growth mindset requires time and involves aspects such as maintaining positive thinking, self-realization, enhancing one's way of thinking, boosting confidence, and actively seeking and providing constructive feedback. It can also help in overcoming obstacles that demand a proactive approach, encouraging individuals to confront challenges rather than giving up without attempting to address them.


In the context of growth, it requires a continuous process…
