Business Outlook

Pros

I served at both large and small funded country offices in Asia. For small office, I was fully designated to plan, implement and monitor all component of WASH project so that I could have develop and increase my managerial skills and technical capacity to carry out the overall projects to meet organizational mandate and goal.

Cons

For large office, I had to follow all the bureaucratic procedure and the things moved slowly.
