This will mean listening to and working with people both internally and externally so that I can understand how we can enhance and build on our technology to meet our customer demands.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs well as I that, I have twenty years of business travel industry expertise and experience and, of course, a smiley face!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">What excites you about your new role?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cKnowing where the company is today, and where it wants to be in the future is incredibly exciting. It\u2019s great to be part of this, to be involved, to widen&nbsp;my skill set and of course work with a new and exciting team.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo far I am loving it!&nbsp; Everyone is so welcoming and hard working.&nbsp; I love the fun and family culture, and the fact that everyone is so bought into the company and, most importantly, want to provide the best experience for the customer!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">What is the biggest challenge you expect to face along the way?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFirstly, I\u2019m sure it\u2019s going to be a challenge not seeing my new colleagues face-to-face for some time what with the government restrictions being brought back in and having to work from home. However, I know that we will do a fantastic job seeing each other multiple times a day on a screen!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am also so very grateful that I managed to complete my 2-week induction programme in the office back in the Summer. I got to meet almost everyone and even went to the pub for a drink with a few colleagues!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut on a non-COVID-19 response, I guess being a Product Manager there are always conflicting business priorities, so keeping everyone happy all the time is, unfortunately, not easy. Despite this, I\u2019m making sure that I am building on the relationships I have and adopting the priority that communication is key!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">If you could change one thing about our industry, what would it be?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn all honesty, right now, the impact and existence of the Coronavirus!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSeriously though, if it had not been for Coronavirus I wouldn\u2019t be here at SITU, so I suppose every cloud has a silver lining!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">What have been the proudest moments in your career so far?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA truly proud moment for me was being recognized&nbsp;as the &#8216;Young Travel Manager of the Year&#8217; at The British Travel Industry Hall of Fame awards.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs well as that, I take pride in championing an environment that motivates and encourages the opportunity of growth both professionally and personally. I have seen many individuals who I have mentored progress to become true professional leaders! I also believe I have been instrumental in seeing many new projects come to fruition, which has made many customers happy and helped all aspects of businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut also, just as importantly, I am proud to have made some amazing friends and to&nbsp;have even met my husband in the travel industry along the way!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">What inspires you?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am inspired by likeminded people. I take inspiration from people who are motivational, passionate, creative and try their hardest to get the very best out of every single situation and person they meet.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">What motivates you?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor me, the biggest thing in life is the \u2018reward\u2019. If I can see a project through from start to finish and know that my customer(s) are happy then that for me is my biggest motivator. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI must also admit that some sunshine, being near the beach and hearing the sound of crashing waves when I am in&nbsp;Exeter helps me too!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">And what book would you recommend that we read? And why?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo whilst my daughter\u2019s recommendation would definitely be \u2018The Very Hungry Caterpillar\u2019, the book we often read and referred to from my Flight Centre days which I would highly recommend is <em>\u2018Hug your Customers\u2019<\/em> by Jack Whitehall.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnother one in terms of Product Management would be <em>\u2018Inspired: How to Create Tech Products Customers Love\u2019 <\/em>by Marty Cagan who is a phenomenal thought leader in the technology product management scene.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><span style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#6d8f98\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Who is SITU?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Founded by Phil Stapleton in 2008 with a vision to offer an alternative to hotels, today SITU is a global serviced accommodation business focusing on both achieving their mission, to make finding and booking serviced accommodation effortless, but also delivering a blended booking experience, through the perfect combination of people, product and technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recognising that the reality of finding and booking serviced accommodation was overcomplicated and difficult, we have developed our business to offer the right booking experience that is relevant to each customer and client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for serviced apartments to support your business travel?
