Next in our Employee Spotlight series, we’re excited to highlight Jenny's journey! Jenny found her passion for learning and development while delivering personal growth workshops to the homeless community of Boston, Massachusetts. She brought this interest to a professional setting in 2018 when she joined our Learning & Development team as a Summer Associate. Jenny and her team facilitate New Joiner Academy, our week-long talent onboarding program, and ongoing training for our colleagues, from Associates to Vice Presidents. We asked her what makes learning & development at AlphaSights unique: "Every colleague joins us with ambitious goals. As a result, unlike traditional L&D programs, our training and development initiatives are continuously evolving to meet growing needs at scale, with strong leadership involvement from the outset." Thanks for sharing your experience, Jennifer Goersch! #AlphaSights #EmployeeSpotlights

Continuing our Employee Spotlight series, we’re excited to highlight Erik's journey! Originally from Norway, he completed his year of mandatory military service before attending The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. While studying, he worked for a Shanghai-based start-up offering an on-demand beverage delivery service. After graduation in 2018, he joined our Hong Kong team as an Associate. He quickly grew into the role, gaining skills like negotiation, communication and account management. After nine years in Hong Kong and nearly four and a half at AlphaSights, Erik relocated with his family (including their dog, Lulu) to our office in London. He expressed gratitude for the support he received from the team during his move: “I moved at a difficult time with COVID restrictions impacting Hong Kong air traffic and Brexit impacting UK pet policies. The team supported with my visa, bookings, and accommodations and was very understanding throughout all the challenges and uncertainties.” Now a Vice President on our team in London, we’re excited to see Erik continue on his professional journey - thanks for sharing your story! #AlphaSights #EmployeeSpotlights
