What do you live about your job and the company?
Witnessing the development and success of others is deeply rewarding. It provides a sense of accomplishment and purpose, knowing that my support and guidance contribute to their growth and achievements. By focusing on observing and nurturing growth, I can help individuals realize their potential, enhance their skills, and achieve their goals. This empowerment not only benefits them personally but also contributes to the overall success of the team or organization. Monitoring people’s growth allows me to identify areas where they excel and areas where they may need additional support. This continuous feedback loop helps in refining development strategies, setting appropriate goals, and fostering an environment of ongoing improvement. Observing and supporting growth fosters stronger relationships. It builds trust and respect, as people feel valued and supported in their professional journey. Strong relationships enhance team cohesion and collaboration. As a leader, my ability to guide and support others is crucial. Focusing on people’s growth helps me develop my leadership skills, improve my approach to mentorship, and create a positive impact on the team's dynamics and performance. Investing in the growth of individuals contributes to the long-term success of the organization. As people develop their skills and advance in their careers, they bring increased expertise and innovation to the team, driving collective success and progress.

The team consists of individuals with a wide range of professional and personal backgrounds. This diversity brings different perspectives and approaches to the table, which can be both a strength and a challenge. Coordinating these varied viewpoints into a cohesive action plan requires careful management and clear communication. Many team members are relatively new and may lack experience. This inexperience can affect their confidence and effectiveness in executing tasks. Providing guidance, mentorship, and support is crucial to help them develop the necessary skills and adapt to their roles. The team is composed of individuals from various cultural backgrounds. Each culture has its own norms and expectations, which can impact communication styles, work habits, and team dynamics. Navigating these cultural differences requires sensitivity and adaptability to ensure that all team members feel respected and included. Managing a large team adds another layer of complexity. Coordinating efforts, ensuring effective communication, and keeping everyone aligned with the team's goals can be challenging. Implementing efficient processes and fostering a collaborative environment are essential to managing a large group successfully.

Be who you want to be. I put the time in to build myself in my career and even now I am still growing. The support and help I've got around me means I have constant help to get me where I want in my career. Even if you don't want to progress up within your role, the support is there as and when needed. Happiness is key within a career, if you aren't happy in what you are doing then it's probably not a role for you. But when you are happy in your role then that will radiate off of you.
