Alex Kornfeind

Lavoro da diversi anni nel mondo della Comunicazione e del Marketing e il ruolo che la mia funzione ha conquistato ad oggi in azienda è assimilabile a quello di "consulente interno" per le tematiche organizzative, o di Strategy, su quei progetti con una forte componente organizzativa (analisi dei requisiti del cliente, definizione del budget, del planning, gestione delle priorità, marketing e web, comunicazione interna).
 
Come agente di viaggio IATA, online dal 1995, sono da sempre alla ricerca di percorsi innovativi per meglio distribuire i prodotti turistici ad una clientela sempre più orientata all'utilizzo del web per la ricerca del viaggio perfetto. Assieme a soci referenziati, coinvolti con i più prestigiosi leader della vendita online, opero da diversi anni nel settore IT dibattendo e promuovendo piattaforme, soluzioni e strumenti alle organizzazioni turistiche, assieme a partners internazionali e nazionali, tanto da meritarmi i gradi di Travel Web 2.0 Specialist.
 
Sono una persona creativa, dinamica e abituata a lavorare in team. Ho molti interessi fra questi anche la docenza in ambito web marketing per il turismo e fortunatamente posso contare sulla capacità di apprendere velocemente, anche in modo autonomo. Soprattutto in ambito extra lavorativo mi piace spaziare in diversi campi, sperimentandomi con profitto in un ampio ventaglio di attività anche se quella di Istruttore di Scherma, dopo anni di competizioni nazionali e internazionali, è prevalente.
