Our response to challenges makes all the difference.
Delphina has learnt that challenges are inevitable; and when they come, one must learn to adjust, overcome, and prevail.
I am Delphina Aboagye, an interior decorator and a YIEDIE programme beneficiary. I must say that CoRe helped me to know “my left from my right”, especially in the uncertain times of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The interior décor business is one of those that has been severely affected by the coronavirus pandemic. Everything we do involves coming into people’s personal or corporate spaces or events. Sadly, people were isolating, offices were operating below capacity and the events industry had totally ground to a halt. There was therefore nothing to decorate.
Through the CoRe Programme, I have learnt that crisis situations are inevitable; and when they come along, I need to exercise my critical thinking ability and deploy relevant talents to keep me going. It has not been easy, but I can confidently say that I am not the same Delphina I was before participating in the programme.
