About Isman Tanuri

Why This Blog Exist?

I am passionate about marketing, technology, education and people. Mix them together and we have a myriad of opportunities to improve our daily personal and professional lives.

The richness of the web in providing knowledge, real-time information, news and soul-learning is still sadly overlooked. I am convinced my role in this life will be to push the boundaries of understanding the power of the online web for my peers and seniors.

I invite you to stay with me on this blog as we both continue to learn and harness the power of social for personal enrichment and business objectives.

On the Personal Front

I readily admit I adore the unknown, love challenges and am very competitive (much to my wife’s dismay as I never go easy at badminton or Scrabble).

Life-long learning is a deep passion.

What I Do

For my full professional profile, connect with me on LinkedIn.

I am currently working for eFinancialCareers, a global online job board, focused on the financial services industry.

I was with Oracle Corporation as a Business Analyst in  from October 2007 till February 2010. Smashing ‘growing up’ time.

I also used to run and manage Fruit Records, co-founded with dearest Wife. There are still nice music and photos of our products and events on Myspace,  do have a look. Fruit Records taught me many things about business and why customers (and employees) are the most important elements in your business. Value them.

I made many real friends at Esplanade, Theatres on the Bay for 5+ years of my life.

Academically…So Far

I received a Bachelor of Arts (Hons, First Class) in Marketing Management (Northumbria University).

I was also a Gold Award winner for top academic performance in my Diploma in Sales & Marketing studies (Marketing Institute of Singapore).

In April 2011, I will start a 2-year MBA program with University of Strathclyde. With this, I hope to be in a position to influence change in the world.

I have also been accepted to attend Founder Institute, a 4-month Silicon Valley technology entrepreneurship program. This will also start in April 2011 and will rock my world!
