Career to mean means a multitude of choices and steps taken to develop myself and grow into the person I am meant to be. It encompasses all the experiences made and to be made throughout my life as there is no separation between personal experiences like for example living and working on another country and professional working eexperiences.

I feel inspired by regular people who follow their dreams and never settle. Kindness and stories in their different forms are also big part of my inspiration.

My biggest professional challenge was overcoming the impostor syndrome which at that time I didn’t even know it exists as a concept, but it was rather going trough the feeling on a daily basis and not knowing how to deal with it. i have overcome it my making use of a couple of techniques both professionally( mentoring, training, making a horizontal career move, openly talking about it at my workplace) and personal ones( self-reflection, increasing my self-worthiness and self esteem)

Do no use ” I ” in presentations as it shows you are not a team player.

Career networks are very important to me because they provide me the medium to keep actual with the professional environment and market and also be in touch and get insights much faster and without formal borders, into other industries, companies, business, perspectives which otherwise would have been difficult for me as I haven’t changed my employer in more then 10 years. It also provides me the great value to connect to like minded people.

Be brave and curious to take unpaved ways. Best experiences, growth and learning come from exploring your own limits. Although natural talents carry a big weight, discipline, consistency and hard work should not be underestimated. They always pay off. Knowledge always pays off.
