12. SELF-CONFIDENCE BUILDING AND TOLERANCE
Cases of application for the job market
Imagine that you need to illustrate your strengths in the workplace. If self-
confidence and tolerance is one of them your response could look like one
of these cases:
A.
In a previous role, our company landed a substantial project from a UK-
based online marketing and distribution client. My responsibility was
overseeing this project, acting as a liaison between the client, our
production unit, and suppliers.
Despite their lack of an R&D department, the client demanded swift
development of various products. This complex task highlighted areas for
improvement: negotiation skills, cross-departmental and international
team management, UK compliance regulations, and stress management.
To address these gaps, I
identified key areas for growth,
pursued specialized training
courses, and secured
management approval for
additional training. My proactive
approach and the willingness to
invest personal time into
development was appreciated,
demonstrating my commitment
to personal and professional
development to ensure optimum
performance with the client.
