Good communication skills in 3 languages
Persuasion and negotiation capacity acquired on Business and negotiation universities’ courses by speaking
and using communication skills.
Innovation (Necessary to solve unique customer issues that I could not transfer to my superiors in Western
Union)

proper way and give me the needed drive to overcome those difficulties and learn from the situation)

determination we could build a strategy to achieve the signature of cooperation contracts with several

Commitment (This value has been constant in all areas of my life; my commitment begins with giving the best of
myself to accomplish every objective and challenge I put to myself)
