“Working on a communication strategy is like suddenly tapping into all the body’s reserves – it is as if you pressed several ‘Start’ buttons all at the same time, and it all kicks into top gear. Analyzing gigabytes of information – the surroundings, facts and events, the ability to read, select, synthetize information and draw conclusions. Experience is key. It is absolutely and certainly the most important element. Work on dozens of projects, hands-on experience with the thorough development of hundreds of campaigns, thousands of situations and millions of conversations. But there is another small thing which is equally important – the thing you colloquially call the “sixth sense”. It’s intuition”.
