UNLOCK YOUR POTENTIAL
Challenges are not an obstacle, but an opportunity to grow and reach new levels. Sangsue has been with PUMA Korea for 3 years and he has overcome the challenges with positive spirit.
Please introduce yourself
I am responsible for Business Intelligence of System Administration on the IT Team. My focus these days is creating BI reports through data management and systems. I am working on developing reports required by each team to establish a data model fit to the local business. My ultimate goal is to develop systemic data that PUMA Korea employees can easily read and understand.
What makes you think that 'PUMA Korea is different'?
I am very interested in sports, and PUMA has signed sponsorships with many professional teams and their players. Whenever I find a PUMA ambassador playing well in the match, I feel a great sense of pride as a PUMA employee. In particular, I'm a fan of Manchester City, and it's quite interesting to see not only the result but also how PUMA Ambassadors expose our products in the game.
I also love reading the in-house magazine CATch up, which includes a separate SPORTS section. It helps me quickly catch up with sports trends related to the company. All in all, working for PUMA Korea as a sports fan is a pleasure as well as a motivation.
What was your most memorable project or rewarding moment at work?
I think it was the time when I created a sales report that is automatically updated by Power BI instead of sharing with Excel everyday.
There was a lot of trial and error as I made new things from scratch. The most fulfilling moment was when I got to see fellow workers using the report I developed and sending positive feedback. Because I learned a lot about what other teams were doing and how they went through the process, it was also a chance for me to improve myself.
What type of people do you enjoy working with most?
Since I am dealing with the data, it is very important to have a solid verification process. Because data never lies, a meticulous personality is really important.
