01 They are intuitive
Like chess players. They are several moves ahead in preparing for the next potential challenge or problem. Whether that’s from a journalist, client or a colleague. They listen carefully and are good at reading between the lines. They proactively seek to address things before they escalate, which means they tend to be diplomatic, collaborative and creative. They are solutions focused people.
02 They are versatile
You have got to be able to jump between tasks that are often quite different and require a new approach. Time can build the knowledge you need, but not being flustered by sudden change is a vital quality. Embrace the variety of your work and enjoy it!
03 They are passionate
It sounds cheesy but your clients need you to show enthusiasm. It shows you care and are in it together, and that’s exactly what they want in their team. You won’t be afraid to ask the uncomfortable question because it must be tackled. Passion makes you understand your clients better, which helps you advise better.
