Two decades fly by in a blink when shared with the right people. Recently, I had the honor of celebrating a 20 year work anniversary with a colleague who had been a cornerstone of our team. It's moments like these that remind us of the immense value in building strong, lasting relationships at work. The bonds we've crafted over these years have weathered challenges and celebrated victories. Here’s what I've learned from two decades alongside incredible people: → Shared purpose is powerful. When everyone rallies around a common goal, it transforms daily tasks into meaningful pursuits. → Trust is the glue. It's the foundation that holds us together through tough times and amplifies our triumphs. → Celebrate every win. Big or small, victories keep us motivated and remind us why we started this journey together. → Empathy elevates. Understanding and supporting each other’s unique strengths fosters a thriving environment. Reflecting on two decades, it’s clear that the people around us make the journey worthwhile. We’ve not only built an outstanding team but a work family. As we look forward to more years ahead, I’m grateful for every lesson learned and every moment shared. To everyone in my professional sphere: thank you for being part of this incredible journey.

Today is my 5 year work anniversary! As I pause and reflect over the last 5 years, I wanted to share a few things I’ve learned at work: 1.) Never stop learning and improving yourself. Personal development is just as important as professional development. 2.) Be trustworthy. Afterall, your character is everything. 3.) Always maintain integrity and do the right thing. God will bless you for it (Luke 16:10) 4.) Honor and value your customers. Treat them with the highest respect and they will remain loyal to you. 5.) Leadership matters. It is a critical component of success. 6.) Hard work isn’t always recognized. Keep striving for greatness, one day it will pay off. 7.) Embrace challenges and speak up. Take risks and make it happen. 8.) You are replaceable at work but your kids only have one Mom or Dad. Put your family first. (I’m grateful for a company that understands my kids come first. I’ve only missed one basketball game in 5 years due to working out of town. That’s invaluable!)🤍 9.) Have fun at work, life is short! When you can, help others and give back. 10.) Most importantly, always remember “Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” Colossians 3:23 Be blessed my friends 💙

Now onto advanced training

Today, I am honored to be celebrating my 16-Year Work Anniversary with my company! That is a lifetime to some. It feels amazing. The people who I have met, and the things that I have learned on this journey have shaped my life in so many ways. Here are some of the lessons that I have learned over the years... * Work/life balance is crucial. It is important not to lose sight of what you are working for. Take the vacation.  Go to the little-league game. Live a good life.  It is short and you only get ONE. So, work to live, not the other way around.   * Be kind and respectful and greet everyone. Every person in every position. * Give your respect freely but give your trust wisely.  Guard your heart and your personal life. Be discreet. Know the difference between being friends and being friendly. Check your emotions.  Don’t react quickly. Observe silently. Avoid office politics and gossip. * Show up. Be consistent and take action. * Be sincere, intentional and authentic. This goes for both your business and your personal life. * Don’t be afraid to ask people to share their wisdom and experience with you. Share your knowledge with others. * Know the difference between healthy competition and unhealthy “comparisonitis”. * Use the right tools, organize everything, and keep good notes. * Clear is Kind. Keep your communications clear, concise and easy to understand. * Confidence in your abilities and knowing your value is important to your success. Believe in yourself and in your work.  

Today marks my 8th anniversary at Siemens 🙂 . In tribute, I thought it would be fitting to share ‘8 things I wish I knew’ before starting at Siemens. 1. Scale- the sheer Global presence of Siemens and the impact our technology has on society. Siemens truly is ‘ Here, Here and Everywhere' 2. Technology with Purpose- Just how much I would be impressed by the Technology solutions we offer to our customers 3. Culture – How genuinely encouraged I would be to bring my whole self to work, where inclusion is at the heart of our values 4. Opportunity Awaits – Driven by ‘self’ the opportunities have been there to discover and develop into, it starts with a Growth Mindset 5. Work-Life Balance – This would be the company where I became a parent, supported by amazing colleagues before and after maternity leave 6. Global – How much I would have the opportunity to interact and learn from our talented global colleagues, who are doing business in a 2nd language 7. Mobile phones are long gone, and we are known for so much more! 8. The bang on noon lunch isn’t a myth! Certainly, in Talent Acquistion, when the clock strikes 12 we all eat! What one thing do you wish you had known before starting a new job at Siemens and beyond?

A few days ago, I celebrated my first work anniversary with Toll. Honestly, I never imagined I’d come this far. I still remember my first day at the company—I was instantly filled with regret and plagued by doubt, wondering if I had made the wrong decision. After spending 10 years of my life building what I had—nurturing meaningful relationships and creating a solid foundation—it was natural to feel hesitant when I decided to start over and rebuild my career with people I didn’t know or trust yet. What I feared the most was loneliness. I knew the role I was stepping into came with its own set of sacrifices. I had to navigate being on my own—without the daily conversations, coffee breaks, lunches, and camaraderie I once enjoyed. But I knew I had to do what needed to be done. You can’t have it all. Moving forward often means letting go of something you hold most dear. Over the past year, I’ve realized that many of us aren’t necessarily afraid of change itself; we’re afraid of leaving behind the familiar and stepping away from what we already know. Venturing into the unknown isn’t something that comes naturally to us. As humans, we’re wired with a fight-or-flight instinct designed to protect us, making it even harder to embrace uncertainty. Here’s the thing: if you don’t take chances, you’ll never discover what’s waiting for you out there. Your calling might just be out there, waiting for you to take that leap. Here’s to more adventures and life’s rollercoaster moments! 🩷 Captured in this picture are the people I spent so much of my time with in my previous organization—the familiarity I left behind a year ago.
