Skill I want to reinforce/ attain from the internship

After researching online about important skills marketers should have I came up with this three skills I want to reinforce and attain during the internship.

• Skill #1: Oral speaking skills

Gain confidence and learn to ask questions and speak up when I need something or I want to learn more or if I need help.

• Skill #2: Writing skills

"The written word once again dominates. The ability to develop clear, compelling text for multiple media, from traditional print to blogging, is essential." (CHRISTINE KHOR)
-Learn how to develop clear, concise written messages.

Skills I want to Attain

• Skill #3: Curiosity, agility and experimentation

"Good marketers will take the time to read, search and experiment – to cultivate fresh thinking, build creative ideas and be ready to move quickly," (CHRISTINE KHOR)
-Be curios and ask questions.
-Reserch different concepts and terms that are mentioned to me.
-Read about marketing and ask for cool articles and books that might be helpful.
