00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:03.800
Playing competitive sports
while growing up in Germany and the U.S.

00:00:03.960 --> 00:00:06.960
taught me to bring my A-game
to whatever I do.

00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:10.480
I wanted to start my career in a role
where hard work and delivering

00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:12.000
results were rewarded.

00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:15.000
I knew I'd found my match
when I joined AlphaSights.

00:00:15.040 --> 00:00:18.040
My workday starts on my commute,
checking client emails.

00:00:18.040 --> 00:00:21.040
Once I'm in the office,
we kick things off with a team meeting.

00:00:21.240 --> 00:00:23.880
I work on multiple client projects
with tight

00:00:23.880 --> 00:00:26.880
deadlines and priorities
constantly changing.

00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:29.920
I really have to be on top of my game
with multitasking.

00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:31.760
This is Kai from AlphaSights here.
How are you doing?

00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:33.240
Hey Emily, this is Kai at AlphaSights.

00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:34.320
Kai from AlphaSights here.

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:38.080
I spend a lot of the day on the phone
speaking to senior executives

00:00:38.080 --> 00:00:42.840
whose expert insights help my clients
make more informed business decisions.

00:00:42.920 --> 00:00:44.560
Once I have found the best experts

00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:49.040
I share a shortlist with my clients
and get the project calls scheduled.

00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:51.000
I work to my client's deadlines,

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:55.400
which means keeping an eye on my projects
also after office hours.

00:00:55.480 --> 00:00:58.440
Does success come easily here? No.

00:00:58.440 --> 00:01:03.240
It takes resilience, grit and doing
ordinary things extraordinarily well.

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:05.120
Looking forward
to working together on this project.

00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:06.840
But I love taking ownership,

00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:11.600
owning my business goals
and delivering results.

00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:12.400
I'm Kai,

00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:13.920
and what excites me the most?

00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:18.320
Taking charge of my career and achieving
success for my clients and myself.
