What is the one gadget you simply cannot live without and why? My coff ee machine! It is the fi rst thing I turn on in the morning, and drinking my coff ee is my favourite part of the day. I love taking a moment to relax and enjoy some quiet time before the day kicks off . My favourite tool to keep me organised: Our TIG CRM/Calendar system! My diary is always jam-packed and I can’t live without my planner that logs meetings, calls and actions against each client throughout the day. It helps me track back and view the history of the account and be completely prepared taking phone calls or walking into meetings! It also helps me see where my team is at and gives us all transparency to see what we are working on.What do you always have on your desk (or computer desktop) and why? A scented candle and relaxing music! Working in sales, managing a large team and working on a lot of large presentations or new client-uniform rollouts can be stressful and we are o� en working to deliver things yesterday! If the day is going at such a fast pace, my candle and music always ground and calm me. When I’m buying clothes for work, I love: I keep things classic and simple in monochrome and neutrals. I prefer to have key quality pieces in my wardrobe that are timeless and build off these staples when I shop for work. Are you a Mac or a PC user? Can’t live without my PC for work, emails and anything serious like personal-budget management. But I have an iPhone for all the fun stuff , and apps.
