29The Top Three Things I Would Like to Learn or Experience During my Mentorship
- How to run a startup: team management, setting a culture, funding and expansion.
- Digital marketing and how to use business Intelligence to make efficient decisions.
- Networking with highly motivated and successful women.
Ideal Company Type
My ideal company focuses on e-commerce (specifically marketplaces) or social media, and I will be inspired by how a successful kind of business is built. My ideal company has an entrepreneurial culture, works on a global scale and believes in positive impact and change. For me, innovation in term of products but also in term of marketing strategies is very important. I would like also to be at a company that is competitive among other e-commerce businesses to learn what they are doing to distinguish themselves and how they are working on their brand.

What impact will your mentorship have on your career and professional path?
The TechWomen mentorship will have a tremendous impact on my career and professional path. First, it will help me develop communication and presentation skills. Second, with different mentorship projects I will learn new tools to become a better entrepreneur. I will be ready to apply new methods and information in my own startup when I return home. Finally, my business is growing and I really need to think globally. The mentorship will give me the opportunity to interact with experienced women with different backgrounds and cultures.
What will be your most valuable contribution to your TechWomen host company?
To be where I am today, I have shown high flexibility and quick adaptation. When I'm passionate about something, I'm curious to learn more about it, and quickly. The fact that I have my own startup is proof that I like take up challenges. I spent ten years in France and now I am running a business in three countries in North Africa. Thanks to all of this, once in the host company, I’ll be able to bring different approaches to solve problems and new perspectives to achieve goals.
After participating in the TechWomen program, how will you leverage your mentorship experience to make an impact in your home country?
Once back home, I will share my new skills with my team first and then with the entrepreneur community. Today, entrepreneurship is booming in Tunisia and as an Emerging Leader I will become a change agent by sharing my knowledge and experience with other women. I want to join mentoring initiatives and I am eager to perfect my mentoring skills in order to provide the best guidance to women who would like to launch their own startups.
