Join me for the career reflections of Nicole Zimmermann, founder & CEO of Zelocin & Partners LLC. Born and raised in Germany she’s fascinated as a young girl with Agatha Christie novels and dreams of being an archaeologist traveling the world discovering new things.
Her dad, the voice of reason, suggests that archaeology could be a hobby AFTER she finds a way to earn a living. Following this practical advice, she interns at a tax & accounting firm giving her some real-world work experience, but then she discovers marketing, right away she’s hooked and decides to become a "marketeer".
Leveraging both her accounting and marketing knowledge her career advances in the telecom and financial services industries. She continues learning & growing as a leader, then accepts an opportunity to move to Colorado. After some dream roles, and a few not-so-great roles, a company restructure caused by the COVID pandemic prompts her to leave the corporate world and start her own consulting firm.
What’s served Nicole best is her curiosity, resilience and her gift of being structured & process oriented – these three things helped her in her career, and life, getting know to cultures, people & countries.
Her words of wisdom, she has two sets: 1) “I regularly remind myself of ‘Carpe Diem’ -- to use the day to be present, to embrace and enjoy this journey – even in the negative and heavy times you need to trust yourself. 2) A quote by Allyson Felix, track & field superstar: “Use your voice, even when it shakes.”
