Welcome back to another Orange Woman Wednesday! Like you all know, we celebrate women in our workforce who have devoted and sacrificed their time to build and have a successful career in our industry. So with us here is our beautiful Nneka who joined the Orange team some three months ago as our Frontdesk Officer. She is hardworking, reliable and courageous. Continue reading as she takes us through her journey.

Can you tell us about yourself?
My name is Nneka Chukwu Obasi. I am from Abia state Ohafia local government. I graduated from Ogun State Institute of Technology as a Business Administrator. I have so many people I look up to in terms of having a successful career and being an entrepreneur. Speaking about my career, I have always loved communicating with people regardless, and I also enjoy advising people when it comes to business, money and management. When I was in school studying Business Administration and Management, I was ready, and I knew I was born for it.

What inspires you into being who you are and what you do?
My principles, I believe that we came into existence with the primary purpose of surviving no matter what happens. My passion for communication is what I enjoy doing, so I turned it into a career. However, I have some couple of goals and targets that I have set to achieve in life, so that alone keeps inspiring to do more in my career.

Tell us about the challenges you’ve encountered
I have not had a lot of challenges so far, but I would say understanding demanding clients is something I am still working on as a person. People are different, and some can be crazy, so convincing clients and satisfying them can be very challenging.

What’s your ideal work environment?
My ideal work environment is one that centres on working in a team, and that encourages everyone’s idea for growth and progress on the job.

Are you a big-picture thinker or detail-oriented?
I would consider myself to be a big-picture thinker. But in as much as I am a big-picture thinker, I also work hard to make sure I don’t only see the big picture, I strive to achieve them too.

What are your short-term career goals?
My short term goal is to run a post-graduate program in management and have a skill in motion graphics alongside.

What are your long-term career goals?
My long term goal is to be a Human Resource guru.

Discuss your experiences in the journey so far?
Luckily for me, after some months of job hunting, I got a job here in Orange VFX Studios as a Frontdesk/customer care representative. I took up this job for a start because I have a good feeling that this role will help me fulfil my ambition of becoming a Human Resources mogul. Working here has been fun, and the people are amazing and helpful.

How do you deal with stressful situations as you progress?
Well, I try to be professional about it and also understand that it’s just a temporary situation.

What do you like to do outside of work?
Wow!! I love this question. I hang out with my friends, see movies and have fun.

As a career woman, what advice would you give to others outside?
What I will say is to know thy self, identify your strength and what you’re capable of doing and also put God first in all your doings.

In a world where most people are sandwiched by various situations, what keeps you motivated in your career?
First and foremost, I am desperate to attain success and to achieve all the goals that I have set. Aside from that, my passion and love for what I do also keep me motivated.

What is the one singular thing that you dread in life?
I don’t think I dread anything in life, and I believe that what will be, will be.
