Which aspects of your job role do you find rewarding and which are challenging ?
I love watching my team grow and build confidence in their ability to deliver . Pushing yourself out of your comfort zone is 100 % the best way to grow and I always encourage that in my teams . Having a growth mindset is also key . The proudest moment of my career was in my previous role when a woman in my team succeeded me as senior manager . With some positive leadership and coaching along the way her natural ability and desire to succeed did the rest !
How do you best like to de-stress and re-charge off work ?
I enjoy being with family the most and travelling around in our campervan ! You cannot beat a bit of the outdoors to destress the mind . I also enjoy playing the guitar with family and friends to re-charge those batteries ! •
