Mark de Souza, Manager in the luxury watch industry, Australia




Meet Mark. I have met Mark the first time when I was interviewed to work at Watches of Switzerland in Perth. Over an approximate 1 year time period I had worked together with Mark as my manager. The nice thing was that I felt more like a friend to Mark than just a staff and soon we would be out grabbing drinks together and experiencing some nice adventures together. I had come to respect Mark as a manager, mens style advocate and a good friend who you can have a serious conversation with yet still is always up for some fun. Having been myself in the position of not being satisfied with what I had studied (marketing and management) I often spoke to Mark about himself and how he managed after he realised that what he had studied is not right for him. Now succeeding and moving up the ladders Mark has found what fulfils him and therefore enjoys his work life. Finding what you love, is the key to success, as you are never as good as someone who loves what he/she is doing.
