🎉Celebrating my THIRD anniversary at Compass!🎉 Reflecting on the past three years, my life and career have undergone a huge, once unimaginable, shift. My time at Compass has been nothing short of transformative, shaping my professional capabilities, personal identity and overall confidence. Here are my top three takeaways from three years: 1. 🙋♀️Surround yourself with people smarter than you. When I joined the team, I was struck by the caliber of individuals—bright, driven, and engaging. Initially intimidated, I look back today and realize I integrated into this exceptional community at some point, without even noticing, evolving into a peer among equals. 2. 🙇♀️Listen to understand. Operating on a team where input is valued, regardless of title or tenure, is refreshing. Everyone was brought to the table for a reason, and our diverse backgrounds, questions, ideas, and ways of processing information has led to great discussion and solutions. 3. 👪Join a community, not just a company. Looking back, so much of my transformation is thanks to unwavering support, continuous training, and a culture of empowerment at Compass. Embracing challenges, pushing boundaries, and striving for excellence are daily endeavors, where failures are learning opportunities and wins are celebrated. It is crazy to realize I belong among this talented team and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to continue to grow here. AND, who knows? Maybe in three more years, I'll be running the place? (Just kidding… give me at least another ten.)

Hard work, loyalty, and diligence are the winning ingredients for top-notch employees like you Nikki Jackson, MBA, CPCU, ARM, CDMS! Your unwavering dedication and passion have been invaluable to our organization's journey toward success. Here's to celebrating your 3rd work Anniversary with us! 🎉 #employeespotlight #EmployeeAppreciation  #workerscompensation #casemanagement #riskmanagement 

Today I can celebrate my 20th anniversary at Wolters Kluwer, Twinfield and I was put in the spotlight with a number of much appreciated gifts. Started in the picturesque Wijk bij Duurstede with about 10 colleagues and has now been part of the Wolters Kluwer family of more than 21,000 colleagues for many years. Summarizing 20 years is quite difficult, but I dare say there is never a dull moment. I have no idea anymore how many different roles I have had. Working long days and nights as a team to deliver the best for our customers. Celebrated many successes. Always trying to improve, almost never standing still. Experienced many beautiful moments, sometimes also very sad. Seeing many colleagues come (and go), beautiful relationships and friendships that have developed. Colleagues who have just left school to colleagues who are retiring. Weddings, births, watching children grow into teenagers and adults. (Now more and more via social media, which hardly existed 20 years ago 😉) Unfortunately, sometimes also very difficult moments such as funerals, saying goodbye to dear colleagues, the corona time, the war in Ukraine that our (former) colleagues have to deal with on a daily basis. Especially since we became part of Wolters Kluwer, I have daily international conversations with direct team members, colleagues within and outside our own division, customers and suppliers. Always new challenges, having interesting conversations and meeting people. I think the people and the dynamics are the main reason I still work here. And I think it's clear, I don't think you've gotten rid of me yet.

Today we celebrate our 8th Work Anniversary! It has been a mesmerizing Journey for us nevertheless. As always in most cases of Startups, we started with a founder who had only sales management & application support experience but quickly had to learn accounting, clerical work, ground jobs, delivery & labor work, equipment maintenance & service part on d job to satisfy the demands of our existing and new customers. He was ably supported by our Service Manager who slowly overtook the burden of Servicing and Customer management and later in came our Sales Managers who started to rope in with small orders and later big Projects and today we are a growing team with a decent turnover + eagerness to grow the team and get in more business. Today we have as many Service Engineers dedicated to Support our customers and project applications which seemed like a distant dream when we started! We learnt a few things on the way - Customer is truly King as our Salaries are paid by our customers - Never ever take your customers for granted, we are replaceable too :( - Employees are the biggest asset of any Company, take care of your employees and they take care of business - Sales Margins are very important for liquidity and to run the business on a day-to-day basis, try not to take orders where there is no margin to support a customer for services later on. - Business will sometimes be very fast and sometimes very slow as this is the nature of most businesses, just hang on and don't give up on the way... There is mostly always light at the end of the tunnel! - Always keep learning and reinvent your process to generate new avenues of business. This is true for a small System Integration based Company likes ours which must learn fast to adapt to new jobs, technologies and challenges in Turnkey Project Management work that come with it. - Its important to get the job done no matter how.. - It's not easy to run a company, there is always a lot of competition and fear to lose out employees and business to others, insecurity, bla bla bla but then the adrenaline to carry on is what makes the difference, we live to die another day and aim for greatness ;) Finally, our Gratitude - To the Almighty for all the blessing bestowed upon d team - To our Employees for making us make us proud (Biranchi, Siba, Raushan, Lipsa, Ashis, Pradeep, Tarachand, Chinmaya, Shakti, Dillip, Ipsita, Amarjit) - To our Customers for their trust and business support - To our Families for tolerating us and keeping up / taking care of us and giving us strength to carry on (we are aware of the time that we cannot give them and still they stand as our biggest pillars of support) #aquadax #waterquality #waterqualitysensors #waterqualityanalysers #processinstrumentation #plc #scada #electricalpanels #turnkeyautomationandinstrumentation #turnkeywtpprojects #24/7waterqualitymonitoring #24/7automationinstrumentation #drinkingwater #wastewater #effluentmonitoring #projectmanagement

Absolutely worth the read if you are an investments and wealth management professional. I echo and share many of those lessons. Particularly EQ > IQ, listening, and learning what makes people tick, motivates them, and understanding their 'Why?'. I highly encourage taking behavioral economics, psychology, anthropology, and history courses. Or reading about the human mind and emotions. This job is often a pseudo therapist, coach, and cheerleader. It's probably why my love of sports aligns so well. Today's elite athletes and the stars work with sports psychologist aka performance coaches, as much as a their nutritionists and strength and conditioning team. But it still takes a Phil Jackson and Steve Kerr to take it to the next level. This job is a 'team sport' as well and it takes all working in concert to get the desired outcome - the client is still the player in the arena. H/T Will Revels, CFA, CEPA, CFP®

Wise words, and a great shorten the timeline to a successful career hack to those that embrace and implement some of Blair duQuesnay, CFA, CFP®ideas! TFS👍 Just one🎯insight:  "Soon, I realized that my ability to relate to clients and understand their motivations would be more important than running Monte Carlo simulations. This was a bit of a shock for an introvert whose idea of hell is a networking event. Emotional intelligence is more important than intellectual intelligence for financial advisors. If you are still in school, I highly recommend taking elective courses in psychology and anthropology. Understanding what makes people tick is the most important skill you can possess to become a successful advisor"💯

This week marks my 3 year work anniversary at SUSE 💚 so I would like to celebrate this with shouting out my top 3 reasons (and I have SO many) of why I love working for my company: 1. Culture and Inclusivity: working with my colleagues who come from so many different locations is literally a breath of fresh air to me. I learn every day from them all, and I feel included and proud to be a part of that. 2. Trust: I feel so humble to be trusted and empowered to make my own decisions about how I work. 3. Camaraderie: I always feel supported, by my boss, by my team and my wider department colleagues. I know that if I ever needed help, it would be there with NO judgement. #suse #greencabal #greenteam
