I’m an HR manager with 8 years of experience for Fortune 100 companies. I
have spent the last six years developing my skills as a customer service manager for Megacompany Inc., where I have won several performance awards and been promoted twice. And today I am proficient in managing teams and solving customer problems. Although I love my current role, I feel I’m now ready for a more challenging assignment. I think one of my greatest strengths is as a problem solver. I have the ability to see a situation from different perspectives and I can get my work done even in the face of difficult obstacles. I also feel that my communication skills are top notch. I feel just as comfortable presenting to senior executives as I do mediating a conflict between junior team members. Although my current job doesn’t require public speaking, I know it’s an important job skill. So I recently started attending discussion сlub meetings and I am already starting to feel much more comfortable speaking in front of a group. Well, nobody is perfect. I definitely get impatient with team members who are making mistakes or delivering substandard work. But I've learned over the past that it's more effective way to approach those team members with professionalism and constructive criticism rather than jump to conclusions about who's to blame for the cause of the problem. It doesn't come naturally to me but I think the blame game is just a waste of time and it's better to focus on where to go from here.
