Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Melanie Mfuh. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Alright, so we’re so thrilled to have Melanie with us today – welcome and maybe we can jump right into it with a question about one of your qualities that we most admire. How did you develop your work ethic? Where do you think you get it from?
Growing up, I witnessed my mother skillfully balancing between selling food and attending computer classes, even during her pregnancy with our youngest sibling. Meanwhile, my father displayed unwavering dedication to his job, consistently investing his utmost effort. Seeing them work so hard definitely molded my mind to work as hard as they do. My strong work ethic is rooted in the values instilled by my parents.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
My passion lies in crafting versatile designs with multiple styling possibilities. Currently, I am focusing on refining the small details that often get overlooked, rather than solely adhering to product release schedules. In addition to that, I am dedicated to mastering new software tools that can enhance my brand’s identity. I love creating and I believe that continuous improvement is the key to my artistic journey. I also aspire to cultivate deeper business connections within my community and strive to contribute significantly towards its betterment.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Reflecting on my journey, I believe there are many qualities, skills, or areas of knowledge that have significantly shaped my path. But my top three are effective communication, empathy, and continuous learning.
The ability to communicate with clarity and precision has been instrumental in conveying my ideas, collaborating with others, and building meaningful connections. Empathy, the capacity to understand and relate to the emotions of others, has not only enhanced my interactions but has also allowed me to approach challenges with a compassionate perspective.
Learning, and consistently challenging yourself to gain new knowledge and skills not only keeps you adaptable but also helps your personal and professional growth.
Looking back over the past 12 months or so, what do you think has been your biggest area of improvement or growth?
In the past 12 months, my biggest area of growth has definitely been centered around deepening my faith in God’s perfect timing and the valuable connections I have made. I believe there is always room for improvement as an entrepreneur and I am committed to continuously refining my workflow.
