How do you make yourself accessible to the rest of the team?

With a global team, it’s crucial to be intentional in how and when we meet.

What does career growth look like on your team?

Every year, I have a goal to promote at least 1-2 people on my team. When I sit down with an individual on my team, we lay out what their personal and professional goals are for the year and beyond and outline the major steps we can take to help them reach those goals. It’s very satisfying to watch your teammates grow personally and professionally.
