A former boss once sent me an Albert Einstein quote in which he described me himself as “passionately curious”. She told me my thirst for knowledge and desire to research everything reminded her of this. I would also like to think she was likening me to Him :P
Hi! I’m Farjahan Akter and I am passionately curious.
I like to solve problems. Throughout my career (though a beginner at the career path), I have been driven my intellectual curiosity to find answers to the most pressing questions. Whether it’s finding a perfect copy writing for a social media post or finding the right cup of tea to mitigate personnel problem, I have been able to quickly uncover a customer’s pain point and identify a strategic solution.
Hence, the human brain is crazy place and there are two things fascinate me most about product and growth marketing. First, the concept of consumer logic and how rational yet irrational it can be. And second: the challenge of communicating in a way that persuades and convinces consumers always requires optimization- so you are optimizing something that is both rational and irrational. I apply the same thinking in Marketing and Human Resource Management because whether you are connecting with consumers or with your team you are connecting with the fun irrationality of their logic- in order to bring ideas together, influence an outcome and also optimize for future growth. Recently, I am looking for a better opportunity to learn more and apply my knowledge to contribute in the common goals.
My intellectual curiosity also drives me to be a life-long learner. So, I am always in quest for getting new knowledge and looking to brush my language skills over coffee. When not hard at work, I enjoy making DYI craft, taking care of the tiny balcony garden, and reading fictions; and above all, I love to be with family.
