3: Seek opportunities for personal and professional growth

Invest in your own development by attending workshops, training sessions, and courses relevant to your role and the organization’s goals. This keeps you up-to-date with the latest trends and developments in your field and better prepared to play an active role in the organization’s growth.

4: Be a team player

Werk samen met je collega’s en bouw sterke relaties op. Dit helpt om een gevoel van gemeenschap en verbondenheid te creëren en bevordert een open en coöperatieve werkomgeving. Sta open voor feedback en wees bereid om anderen te ondersteunen bij hun werkzaamheden.
