Please give a detailed description of your job, including nature of work, major responsibilities, and, where relevant, employees under your supervision, size of budget, number of clients/products and results achieved.

I moved to Chile in 2006 to support my husband in his advancing career and simultaneously started my own consulting business. This new business was a big change from managing a 100 million organization as in my previous experience; however, it allowed me to leverage my management experience; develop experience as an entrepreneur; and produce earnings of $95,000 USD. My two most important clients are Waldorf Company and Cheen Chile.

At Waldorf, I am creating the company's first marketing plan, as well as working with the owner to develop a single company vision that will provide the management team a long-term unified goal. Although Waldorf is a multinational company with 90 million USD in sales, the company lacks a strategic view of the future and is very short-term oriented. I am assessing the company's key issues to recommend action plans and then I will recruit and train five people to implement these plans.

With Cheen, I work directly with the top management team to identify growth opportunities in the region that will help the company double its revenues of $40 million in five years. Over 90% of Cheen's production is sold inside Chile, thus, to evaluate all growth options, I am learning about the different Latin American markets and Cheen's competitors', and will combine these to define an strategy for each country that includes both organic options such as launching an existing product of Cheen's portfolio and inorganic options like acquiring a competitor.
