Ability to analyse and interpret information. | Skill Level: | Professionally Qualified |
| Through my work as investigative journalist and News Director, I analyse complex political, social, economic information and data daily, and always under time pressure. I evaluate sources, verify facts and interpret data to produce high level, evidence-based reporting. This analytical approach allows me to assess risks, interpret strategic documents and contribute to informed, responsible and valid decision-making at any level. | ||
Ability to think critically, creatively and strategically. | Skill Level: | Professionally Qualified |
| My profession and voluntary roles require constant strategic thinking, critical analysis and creative problem-solving, particularly in crisis situations or when designing impactful campaigns. In Guiding and Scouting, I have applied the same mindsets in programme planning and international representation. My best achievements were the WoCo 2023 in Nicosia Cyprus, and the OB-PS Annual Event 2025 in Limassol Cyprus, for which I worked as Head of the Hosting Team. | ||
Ability to listen, learn from others, and appreciate diverse perspectives. | Skill Level: | Professionally Qualified |
| Active listening has been one of the most valuable skills I developed as a journalist. I have interviewed people from very different backgrounds, and I learned how best to approach each perspective with respect and deep interest. Through Guiding, this deepened further, especially when working with MOs of different structures and Regions. I value dialogue and believe better decisions come when everyone feels heard. International travel and intercultural collaboration strengthened my ability to learn from differing viewpoints. | ||
Cultural sensitivity and experience working in a global, multi-cultural context. | Skill Level: | Professionally Qualified |
| Having reported from tens of countries and collaborated with international media and colleagues of different identities, I have gained extensive experience working in multicultural environments. Having seen firsthand how cultural, political and socio-economic realities shape the lives of people, has reformed my communication style and my decision-making, helping me approach discussions with sensitivity, respect and a strong commitment to inclusion. These are qualifications I use in other fields of action as well, not only professionally. | ||
Ability to represent WAGGGS positively and professionally internally and externally. | Skill Level: | Professionally Qualified |
| As News Director and Chairwoman of the Cyprus Media Ethics Committee, I regularly represent publicly and in various official bodies and fora, managing high-level communications and sensitive reputational matters. My public speaking, media engagement and stakeholder relations experience, on a local, European and international level, equip me to believe that I can represent WAGGGS anywhere ant before anyone with credibility, diplomacy and professionalism, strengthening the visibility of our World Association as well as its advocacy impact globally. | ||
