      Global partners london tribe member

      During my week at IBM, I shadowed a Global CIO Partner, in the London Tribe working on internal facing products. I was responsible for developing test scripts to analyse the UX from a user perspective, and worked with the idea generation team to discuss potential features and problem fixes with relation to design.IBM operates under an agile environment, so I used my skills as a dynamic, collaborative member alongside my knowledge from agile training to fit in with the team practises. Being such a large multinational, it was also important to apply skills in patience and clear and concise messaging to get what you needed from who you needed, without wasting their time whilst taking consideration of different time zones and work cultures. At the end of the week, I delivered a presentation to the team, which required good presentation and delivery skills to execute an impactful, relevant talk. Show less
