I support my team to facilitate and organize training needs across our organization.
For me, a great day at work is when I am able to make an impact on those around me. Days when I am able to facilitate training sessions and help others learn new things are days when I am most satisfied. These are the pinnacle days of my career, but leading up to that point, I have to collaborate with others and create training materials that will be used during these interactions so there is also some behind-the-scenes brainstorming, creativity and networking that happens on a regular basis.
