Greatest achievements

I'm not a workaholic; I believe in balancing work with fun. In my team, I noticed that people were always working without much engagement. So, I took the initiative to start and implement employee engagement activities with some of our colleagues, similar to what was already happening at other sites. This effort was recognised and awarded, and I felt great about the transparency at Alstom.
