I wrote this during one of our training sessions with LDP (Leadership Development Plan)
Got so bored I guess.. so instead of writing something about how to be a role model it made me think.. who are my role models at work and what a role model means..
Cheesy stuff.. but i guess worth writing.. itll be a reminder when me and GI start fighting again...hehehehe...
For me, a role model is someone who inspires you to be a better person – be it at work or your personal life. It can be one person or a group of people. It can be your immediate sup, your trainer, the company’s executives – even your agents.
I am fortunate enough to be able to work with a lot people who inspired me and taught me things that made me a better person.
Ten years ago, I was a newbie for Globe account, with no background on call center work. What I know today, I owe to those people – my role models. (Agriculture and call center work are miles and miles apart, right?)
** My first supervisor – GI Vista:
About 50% of what I am now as an employee is the result of GI’s persistence and patience in mentoring the newbie who’s only reason for staying with the company is to avoid the boredom of waiting for the next school year. True, I was resistant to all her coaching at first but she didn’t give up on me. One of the things she taught me that I still value until now: “If it’s not documented, it didn’t happen”
**Mark Bonifacio
I admire his work dedication. He taught me the importance of using a project plan and strictly adhering to the set deadlines. He would always ask/ solicit my opinion with issues/ activities that will affect our work/ job functions
**Bernie Tuazon
For his professionalism. I can say that when it comes to reports and other dependencies, you can always count on US Airways to submit on time.
**My direct reports (past and present)
For all the challenges – be it for my analytical skills, patience etc.
They are a constant reminder that I should conduct myself in a such a way that will make them proud of me.
