Far away from home…

It is Saturday evening; I’m just alone in my room with all my thoughts. This evening I decided to spend by my own and gather everything what is in my head. Last month was very hard for me personally. Not because I don’t enjoy my time here I do. It is connected with my family that is in Europe. When I decided to come here I was afraid of many things one of them was fact that when something bad happen at home I will not be able to be there. And unfortunately I need to experience this now. Many bad things are happening and I can’t be there in 100%. It is extremely hard to deal with all my feelings. And need to find another way to support my family. I’m glad that I have a lot of friends here so whenever I want I can talk about everything what I want. I think this is one of the reasons why I’m still here. I know that I’m doing my best to support all people that are important for me. I treat all the bad things as something that makes me stronger and I believe that soon everything will change and bad luck start to be good luck…!

Headway Management Education

Headway Management EducationFor me as HR Officer of Headway it was a big day (4th of October). It was day when after long preparation I could see effects of my work. Me and Mike Cardenas organized education day for managers of Headway Companies. The event took place during last Saturday and we had 10 participants from HBS, HDI and HPL. Objective of the meeting was providing participants with knowledge about managing people. Based on previews needs analyze us define such topics as: personal planning, delegation, performance planning and evaluation, coaching/mentoring, management and leadership and resource management. People who were speakers were Ricardo Lacson (Director – ZMG Signium Ward Howell), Urbano L.Velasco (Professor of International Business Policy and Strategic Management at De La Salle University), Flo and Mike - CEOs of Headway. This day it was a great opportunity for all managers to talk about their companies, problems and ideas. One of the part of agenda was group activity connected with delegation. Beside good fun participants could make useful conclusions from the exercise and related it to daily work. Thanks to external guests we could get some other perspective and gather new ideas. Now as I can see most of the participants are motivated to use new knowledge and improve their management skills. After whole day we had some fellowship drinks :) I’m looking forward next event.
