Feedback: Name: lago Sequieros , Spain, Communication I worked together with Jakob on the promotion of the Happy Go Running event. During that time, we had daily contact and I enjoyed working with him. Jakob shows a professional and empathetic attitude. He is very organized and takes a lot of responsibilities. | especially liked that he always motivated me and asked for my opinion. His Spanish skills are not so good, but we managed to communicate and work together effectively. He laughed a lot and worked together to achieve a common goal - to create a great promotional campaign. Next to that we also exchanged our ways of thinking and tried to combine our knowledge and cultural differences. Jakob was always up to help me and had a critical eye on the work we produced. His constructive feedback was helpful to make my work better. I am a specialist in communication and design, and Jakob helped me to understand the work from a sports perspective. He often made clear that we can only achieve the best result if we work together using our individual strength. In collaboration with our supervisor we managed to set goals that we subsequently achieved together. Jakob’s greatest trait is his confidence and awareness as sports professional. I wish him the only the best in his future career.
