What does a counselor do?
Pieter Lievyns explains:
“As a counselor I am helping my counselees
to discover their own personal career path.
And then I guide and stimulate them to
progress on this path, sometimes step by step,
sometimes with a giant leap.”

“After my studies I had one wish: to become a marketer. Since I

Notes de l'éditeur
Example 1 about Strategic project
Marketing became complex, for a while now
The profile of the marketers has to change to be able to coop with the challenging times
We need marketers to balance between sometimes very contradicting skills
He has to be a Generalist and have an overview on the whole marketing scene. At the same time, as marketing has to be very curious about specialized marketing domains ….
He has to be creative, we want him to look at thing s in a different way, makes links, use past experience in other situations …. At the same time he has to love numbers and understand the importance of in depth quantitative analysis.
Marketing is a tough discipline, strict timings and processes are required. But it might be necessary to have guts, … so if you have an idea, convince the board and get it done, realize in a short term because the opportunity is there and now.
Marketers need hard skills (f.i. MPM; CRM; Nielsen, GFK, …) but has to be good communicators, good intuition, build bridges internally…..
Humility is important: listen to experienced marketers, but certainly to the consumer. At the same time: have a own vision and clear conviction, be able to make choices.
Last but not least: we need passioned marketers that understand what the business is about. One that knows where the business is going ….
End with : Agility & creativity might be more important than knowledge
