Thulasizwe Ngidi

I am looking for management training which offers me the opportunity to develop new skills while strengthening those I already possess. My work experience has enabled me to develop good organisational skills, an analytical/logical approach to tasks and the ability to work under pressure. I can work well both on my own initiative and as part of a team.

My main strengths are adaptability, dependability and the determination to get a job done as proven by my varied work experiences in Logistics, Manufacturing and FMCG. I try to learn something new from every experience because I believe there is always room for self-improvement both personally and professionally.
