🎉Celebrating my THIRD anniversary at Compass!🎉
Reflecting on the past three years, my life and career have undergone a huge, once unimaginable, shift.
My time at Compass has been nothing short of transformative, shaping my professional capabilities, personal identity and overall confidence.
Here are my top three takeaways from three years:
1. 🙋♀️Surround yourself with people smarter than you.
When I joined the team, I was struck by the caliber of individuals—bright, driven, and engaging. Initially intimidated, I look back today and realize I integrated into this exceptional community at some point, without even noticing, evolving into a peer among equals.
2. 🙇♀️Listen to understand.
Operating on a team where input is valued, regardless of title or tenure, is refreshing. Everyone was brought to the table for a reason, and our diverse backgrounds, questions, ideas, and ways of processing information has led to great discussion and solutions.
3. 👪Join a community, not just a company.
Looking back, so much of my transformation is thanks to unwavering support, continuous training, and a culture of empowerment at Compass. Embracing challenges, pushing boundaries, and striving for excellence are daily endeavors, where failures are learning opportunities and wins are celebrated.
It is crazy to realize I belong among this talented team and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to continue to grow here.
AND, who knows? Maybe in three more years, I'll be running the place? (Just kidding… give me at least another ten.)
