Issa Badran

“Man in a Mission” said Miss Suzan Wood from Wood Communications, New York, describing Issa Badran, after working together on one of the USAID projects. If you look at Issa’s passion at work and at all the achievements; and listen to all feedback from all the colleagues he worked with, you’ll have the same impression and judgment. This is; & by this; Issa is driven in his career for the last 19 years of experience in several frontiers to build and maintain a solid career with high professional ethics.

Prior to joining Horizon.FCB as Sr. Director in the Account Mgmt Dept. in June 2005, he was the Director of Operations and Marketing of the National Employment Center, a model from Utah state – USA, established in Jordan to serve both employers & job seekers, during that he enrolled in an extensive training program held by an American team of 9 experts in Career Counseling, HR, Employment Services & Solutions, Team Building, Soft Skills Training, and on a parallel line, participated in all corporate sessions to prepare the NEC’s corporate image and believes.

Before that, Issa gained a different experience in the fields of Creative Design & Advertising where he worked for 14 years with multi nationalities advertising agencies in Jordan and Saudi Arabia, add to that another 3 years in the field of Sports Marketing where he worked for DUNK, a sports marketing firm in Jordan, as Operations Mgr., Brand Mgr. & later as Sales and Marketing Mgr., during different phases of his employment there.

Now-a-days Issa says: “The wisdom required for being a solid professional & a successful manager cannot be taught in schools; you need to learn it in the real world, and to be a good professional or manager, you need to work for a variety of managers, and learn from their successes and mistakes. And, more importantly, you should experience what it is like to work for someone before you start bossing people around”.
