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.

I strive to adhere to these principles, which can also prove to be a good piece of advice - 1. Seek to embrace new challenges in both professional and personal life. Being challenged in life is inevitable, being defeated is optional 2. Never shy away from embracing changes. Your life does not get better by chance; it gets better by change 3. Always be prepared for stretch assignments, as they provide valuable learning opportunities and enhanced visibility

Everyone has something to offer. Each person comes with a depth of perspective, experience and knowledge, so it is always important to stay curious, learn from others and keep an open mind. The more we open ourselves beyond our existing beliefs on what should be, the more we embrace cognitive diversity and therefore grow. On the other hand, each of us also has something to share. Never undermine your knowledge, experience and perspective, it is a gift to those around you as you provide the same opportunity to them as they do for you.
