- Project Managing - To me this entails planning, scheduling, budgeting, and exactly what it says, managing a project. How does IT get involved? Well, from my experience such planning, scheduling, etc. would take place on Microsoft Excel and/or a new software we recently installed to have all the information under one file. It's much more efficient to have all the data for a project all together so that collaborating with other coworkers, and even clients, is a breeze.
- Networking - With certain projects, everyone's assigned a task. Once that task is done, efforts to bring all the work together in a timely matter is always a hassle. For this reason, proper communication and networking between individuals is needed. I have experienced first hand, that important accounts can be lost due to failure to connect and collaborate.
- Databases - Being part of a growing company with growing accounts, comes with more and more data. Storing this data in a secure location and also being able to add on to the already extensive amount will need to take place. That's why familiarizing one's self with their companies database is of the utmost importance. Safeguard has a database where each worker can log into their own account, see the accounts of their clients, and witness minute by minute how the client's money/assets/etc is being affected.
As you may see these skills intertwine with one another and are undoubtedly required. It's impossible to use one without the other.
