Renowned brand marketing expert and entrepreneur, Bernard Sokpe, also known as “The Meister” has shared his career success and personal development during a recent episode of the YLeaderboard Series on Y107.9FM
The CEO of Jambo Spaces, known for his innovative approach to branding and his commitment to nurturing young talents, Meister emphasized the importance of seizing opportunities and continuously honing one’s skills. He encouraged young professionals to approach job interviews with a solution-oriented mindset, focusing on the value they can bring to an organization.
He encouraged young people to embrace opportunities, “say yes to every opportunity, regardless of whether it fits within your immediate skill set. This approach allows for continuous learning and personal growth.”
He highlighted the need for young professionals to develop unique skills and perspectives that can enhance their chances on the job market. ”Always go into job interviews with what you want to do differently to elevate the company or brand. Don’t just go in for the money without experience and a plan to make a change in the first six months.”
He mentioned a significant gap in the creative industry: “Most creators have the numbers and audience but have no idea on how to make the money.”
He emphasized that Jambo Spaces is a creative hub and incubator that helps creators to turn creativity into currency.
To address these challenges, Jambo Spaces is launching the African Digital Creator Academy, a flagship program aimed at equipping creators with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in the digital age.
The creative genius also stressed the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance, adding that prioritizing mental and physical health is crucial for long-term success.
