are necessary for a marketing manager. My current strengths include good communication skills,
I also have skills of growing my network by developing a good and positive relation with several
people (include subordinates, colleagues, customers, seniors etc.). On the other hand, I found that

legislation. In order to get the job of marketing manager, I have to develop the above mentioned
skills in myself. Currently I have skills of good communication, networking skills and best
consumer service skills. Effective communication skills help me in properly communicating all
the plans of marketing activities with my subordinates. Effective communication always results

Networking skills are also one of my strength as it is necessary for marketing manager to build a
healthy and positive relation with the customers so that they can retain the existing customers
and attract more new consumers towards the organisation. It is necessary for marketing manager
to build several of networks with people so that they can influence them to buy any specific

services to the consumer. I have skills to understand the needs and requirements of consumers
regarding the tour and travel industry. As a result, I provide best services to them which satisfy
the needs of consumers along with retaining them. On the other hand, it is also necessary for me
to understand the culture and language of the customers, so that I can know about the needs and
requirements of customers. I have to work on the skills such as language skills, culture
awareness along with the knowledge of relevant laws and legislation. It has been found that a
marketing manager have to deal with lots of people of several culture and having different
language. For the same purpose, they are required to have the skills to understand them. Hence, I
