Success is not a moment in time, it’s a journey. And it requires sustained energy and motivation. So in recent weeks, our team has been exploring how we achieve both high and ‘optimal’ performance - considering not just occasional peaks but also sustained excellence. While all of us naturally cannot be at our best 100% of the time, each of us has the capacity to attain optimal performance. This approach puts a greater focus on personal well-being and periods of recovery – the secret to thriving CONSISTENTLY in the face of life’s challenges. We recently completed a dipstick check-in with our Europe People and Culture team at The Coca-Cola Company - and while we recognize the great results we achieved, we see a lot of opportunities to support everyone to achieve optimal performance. There are a few building blocks we can start with, like clarifying and aligning priorities, boldly cutting unnecessary workload, and ensuring everyone’s wellbeing continues to be at the heart of everything that we do. It’s a small but significant shift in mindset, and I am super excited for what we can do to make a difference. #CocaCola #CocaColaEurope #OptimalPerformance #HighPerformance #LifeAtCoke #GoingForTheExtraSmile

As I conclude my rewarding two-year assignment at PepsiCo, I reflect on the remarkable journey that commenced amid the challenges of the COVID pandemic and a move to the Netherlands with my family. Despite uncertainties, our determination led to a successful settlement, laying the foundation for future endeavours. Following a brief career break, I realized a long-awaited dream of establishing my own company, InFinHorizons, in October 2021. Subsequently, RGP presented an engaging opportunity with PepsiCo to support the Tropicana Brands Group (TBG), a joint venture with PIA investments in the juice business. Little did I know that this engagement would extend to two years, making me an integral part of a dedicated and special team that consistently delivered golden standards. My sincere thanks to the PepsiCo Europe Central Finance Reporting team, project team and Europe TBG team for providing a rich and rewarding experience. Congratulations to everyone involved in establishing TBG and efforts to bring it to independence. I am delighted to share that my journey continues with TBG in January 2024. I want to highlight key attributes that contributed to my journey’s success, both personally and professionally—diversity, adaptability to change, nurturing strong relationships, and dynamic collaborative teamwork. Diversity: Having lived in diverse countries and collaborated with colleagues worldwide, fostering an understanding of various cultures, languages, foods, and lifestyles. Technological advancements in collaborative tools and social networking have facilitated continued virtual interactions, further enhancing this experience. Remember the person on the other side is also a person. Building Strong Relationships: Start by identifying your needs and the types of relationships to build. Authenticity is essential; build trust through genuineness and reliability, consistently following through on commitments. Be respectful, open-minded and willing to learn from others, considering new ideas and perspectives. Embracing Change: Recognize change as essential for growth, adapt, and actively drive change for success. Teamwork: Success is achieved through clear common goals and collaborative efforts, with team members trusting each other for collective accomplishments. Don't forget to celebrate successes and learn from mistakes.

I’m elated to share that I’ve started a new position as Territory Manager with Ferrero! 🌟 Reflecting on my past, I wasn’t the best student, often doing just enough to get by. However, 2023 marked a turning point as I embarked on a transformative journey of self-discovery. Facing personal challenges, I chose to grow and align my actions with the change I wanted to see in myself. Through introspection and self-education, I learned that thoughts shape actions, actions form behavior, and behavior builds habits that create your character. This journey helped me transform from someone quick to anger into someone who practices emotional regulation and embraces challenges. I’ve learned to be kinder to myself and others, finding calm through meditation, journaling, and healthy habits. This growth has been crucial for both my personal and professional development. I’m pleased that Ferrero recognized my mindset and values, and the composure I developed was instrumental during the interview process. One week in, I’m already falling in love with the job. I’m thrilled to learn from the team and am committed to excelling in my new role. I’m grateful for this big opportunity and the support from those around me. I am excited to see where this new chapter leads. What lessons have you learned on your journey of growth? As a curious learner, I’d love to hear your stories! 😊 #NewBeginnings #PersonalGrowth #CareerDevelopment #Positivity #Gratitude

Unilever is a British multinational consumer goods corporation based in London, England. It is one of the world's largest consumer goods corporations, with over 400 brands marketed in 190 countries. Unilever manufactures food, home care, personal care, and cosmetic products. While researching Unilever 's human resources department, I noticed that the corporation appreciates its employees and is constantly looking for ways to help and develop them. However, I believe these are some of the strategies they can use to recruit, retain, and develop personnel. •Personalized training programs are designed to meet the particular needs of employees. This can include skill-building courses, mentoring, and ongoing learning opportunities. •Establish established mentoring and coaching programs for employees to receive personalized guidance. This can be very valuable for developing leadership and management skills. •Feedback culture promotes an open and transparent feedback environment. Employees should feel free to express their thoughts and concerns, and they should receive constructive feedback regularly. •Diversity and inclusion can foster a diverse and inclusive work environment that values and respects people of all backgrounds. I believe that through using these techniques, Unilever will be able to establish a work environment that not only recruits but also develops and retains valuable individuals over time, enabling reciprocal and sustainable progress. #progress #humancapital #strategies #employees #skills #opportunities #leadership
