CHARLOTTE FOHNER ’22
MAJOR Business Administration HOMETOWN Kronenwetter, Wis.
ORGANIZATION Evidence 4 Faith Rhinelander, Wis. TITLE Creative and Technical Director
What I did: I did similar duties to my last internship with producing multi-media content and supporting operational administrative duties. The new things I did included: • Managing travel details and communication for a short speaking tour • Publishing a Textbook (that I had started working on in my last internship a year ago!) • Developing a Project Management process for the business • Participate in business strategy setting for the next year and own the process • Help select a new payment processor for donations and financial management What I liked: This semester really stretched me with juggling such a wide variety of projects and tasks. I really liked being able to take what I learned in my Project Management course and bring it to the office every day. That course was a highlight of my semester as my coworkers often asked me what I was learning. The business is less than two years old and we have struggled with communication and deadlines with working remotely. The improvements I have been able to bring have started to make some small but important differences. Future Dream Job: I really wanted to be a creative director but after taking the Project Management course, I think my mindset and skill set are better suited for a project manager. Both jobs require project management skills. I think my ultimate dream job would be a project management position with a creative focus (such as in a studio, events company, media company, etc.). It’s very close to what I am currently doing right now.
