Profile

Age: 41
Lives in: Hannover, Deutschland
Role: B2B-Account-Managerin
What they do: Ich soll technische Dienstleistungen bei Bestandskunden betreuen, tragfähige Kundenbeziehungen sichern und zusätzlich neue Kunden gewinnen.

Ich wohne allein in einer Dreizimmerwohnung in Hannover-Linden; mein Partner Tobias lebt auf der anderen Seite der Stadt, wir sehen uns meist am Wochenende. Samstags treffe ich oft meine Freundin Miriam auf einen Kaffee oder im Kino, und am Wochenende gehe ich gern am Wasser spazieren. Ich bin 41 Jahre alt. Ich kenne die Bedürfnisse meiner Bestandskunden und will Zusagen machen, die halten. Wenn zusätzliche Akquise mit laufenden Anliegen konkurriert, verschiebe ich meine Akquiseblöcke zu oft. Zunächst verteidige ich diese Entscheidungen mit Zielkonflikten; bei fairen, konkreten Nachfragen kann ich meine eigene Priorisierung hinterfragen.
