宁波诺丁汉大学

已为人母的冯倩云,偶然忖度,原来从母校宁波诺丁汉大学毕业已有9个年头了。

从最初玛氏箭牌糖果(中国)有限公司的管培生到如今的全国客户销售高级经理,再到今年仲夏的新蓝图,这一路,她从未停止过自主学习的步伐,给予自己一个无限可能的未来。

“这些年的沉淀,每一次的‘起航’都有清晰的目标,不得不说,母校宁诺的许多理念已溶入了我的人生!”冯倩云回顾道。

01

从单一课堂到开放式课堂 她很享受

回忆校园生活,她说,从小到大自己都是“乖乖牌”的女生,不属于成绩很出色,却也是顺风顺水的好学生。但第一天来到宁诺,看到负责接待的学姐学长全程用英语跟自己交流时,对比自己蹩脚的口语,她下定决心要突破英语难题,其实这在日后,英语已然不是一种特长,而是一项必备技能。

之后便是开放式的上课模式,区别于以往的教学的单一模式。

过去十多年的上课模式都是老师为主,老师讲,学生负责听、记。而这里都是以学生为主,开放式地进行讨论,蛮有意思的!学生们各自组队讨论,每个人分工负责自己的项目,每个学生都要发言,氛围非常得融洽,讨论的答案也不是唯一性,而是发散性的一种构思,这样的模式非常容易调动自身的自主性学习,因为你想证明你的观点是最棒的。

“那个时候,几个小伙伴总是约好图书馆占位置。一起共同努力的日子,真是一件快活的事情。而这些校友直到现在都相互保持着热络的联系,给予对方鼓励和支持。”冯倩云笑着说道。

02

交换生的经历“催化”她独立的成长

2009年9月,冯倩云作为宁诺的一名交换生前往英国诺丁汉大学。在异国他乡,她度过了4个多月的求学生涯。此次经历,无论从生活上还是学业上,都是一次独立性的成长史。

其实,宁诺的教育模式和英国那边几乎一模一样,所以从方式上来说并没有“水土不服”。真正不一样的是英国的学制很短,授课时间也很少,而且要与来自全球各国的师生愉快相处,这些都是摆在她眼前的困难。

“那个时候要跨出一步是有多难只有自己知道,所有问题都要一一去解决、去适应——第一次租房、第一次烧饭、第一次去邮局充煤气费等等,我迎接了很多人生的第一次。可现如今回首,真的要感谢那段经历,日后工作上的独立性和挑战困难的坚韧性,或许就从那时萌芽的。”冯倩云说。

宁诺一直以来十分鼓励学生通过开展富有国际化特色的社团活动来拓展视野、提升实践能力。目前,学校已发展学术、实践、艺术、体育四大类近20个学生组织和社团,近80个兴趣小组,成为学生课堂的延伸。冯倩云当时加入了话剧社的社团,“一不小心”被入选了社长,也正是社团经历培养了她的综合管理和领导能力。

“其实社长的工作很琐碎,不仅需要跟老师学生沟通,也要与保安、剧务人员联络,是一件非常考验沟通能力的活儿。”冯倩云说,这段经历也为她之后加入知名外企增加了不少砝码。

一次次丰腴的经历,让冯倩云跳出了校园象牙塔思维:

永远不要让自己的体系只限于专业;

热爱生活也是一种积极人生;

需要具备国际思维的能力;

自主学习和创新始终是人生前进的课题。

03

8年6个不同岗位 爱上“攻城”的感觉

“那一年,玛氏箭牌在全国进行管培生的招募,大概有7万多人报名,但最终只录取五六十人,也可说万中挑一,但引以为傲的是我们宁诺就被录取了3个人,其中一个便是我!”冯倩云自豪地回忆道。

管培生的3年很辛苦,不仅仅是因为刚毕业的懵懂期,而是需要面对突如其来的新问题,当然竞争也是非常激烈。根据玛氏的要求,管培生在第一年中每三个月进行轮岗,熟悉各部门业务。一年下来,冯倩云的表现非常突出,在所有名校毕业的管培生中考核分数最高。

玛氏箭牌糖果中国人力资源副总裁刘红曾这样评价她:

冯倩云体现了宁诺毕业生的独特优势,很有创造性。她不仅做好领导布置的工作,还悉心总结每三个月的轮岗体会,提出优化工作的建议。她并不把三个月轮岗当作临时过渡性工作。每到下一个部门,她都会把精心总结的关于如何优化工作的建议提供给上个部门。她和宁诺的其他毕业生一样,团队合作精神很强,乐于与人分享。

在玛氏箭牌的几年,冯倩云换了6次岗位,但每一次都是留给人们华丽的转身,无论是增额提前完成销售额,还是传统渠道营销和新渠道的结合和创新,都承载了她勇于从0开始的豪迈步伐。

宁诺教会了我一套逻辑思维的培养和知识体系的建立梳理,即便失败,也会从中获取复盘评估。从0开始,这便是一切皆有可能的最好诠释,也是母校的魅力所在,我一路的风景皆有她的相伴!

Undergraduate study equips UNNC alumna with excellent career skills

It has been nine years since Qianyun Feng graduated from University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC) and started her career as a management trainee at Mars, the world-renowned food manufacturer. From an ordinary employee to a senior manager, she has never stopped her search for self-improvement over recent years.

Along this journey, what she has learned during her undergraduate study at UNNC has been deeply rooted in her mind.

Qianyun still remembers being impressed by the fluent spoken English of the orientation leader on her first day at UNNC. She was determined, there and then, to break the language barrier and to have a good command of English.

The open-class environment at UNNC was also quite different from her past teacher-centred learning experience. “In class, we often have group discussions, with which everyone is motivated to study autonomously, as everyone is responsible for his or her own participation and is encouraged to express their own opinion. There is never a single yes or no answer,” recalled Qianyun.

The exchange experience in the University of Nottingham in the UKaccelerated her growth. Facing various challenges in everyday life and study, Qianyun summarised that “at that time, only you and yourself knew how difficult it was to take the first step and solve the problems one by one. But thanks to that experience, I became much more independent, from which I benefited greatly for my future work.”

Outside of the classroom, Qianyun also devoted a great amount of time to extracurricular activities exploring the UNNC student clubs. She joined the Idrama Club and soon became the president, which helped her sharpened both her organisational skills and leadership.

“I found that being the president actually has very high requirement of communication skills,” Qianyun said. She enjoyed this process and the capabilities she trained during this period helped her a lot in her career later on.

"Mars Wrigley conducted a nationwide recruitment in China. About 50 candidates were finally admitted out of 70,000 applications, among which UNNC took three places!” Qianyun recalled proudly.

The first three years as a management trainee were tough. The job rotation mechanism and fierce competition brought Qianyun numerous obstacles. Every three months, she rotated and started from zero all over again. However, drawing on the abilities of independent learning and innovation that she developed at UNNC, she overcame the challenges one by one and finished the tasks with success, unlocking for herself a future of unlimited possibility.

“I developed logical thinking and established a comprehensive knowledge map at UNNC. They gave me the strength and taught me how to learn from failure. What I gained from UNNC has accompanied me along the way.”
