“Working within the humanitarian sector could sometime feel like being in a marathon-constantly running, and sometimes without envisioning a finishing line. This course was a much-needed breathing space, where we had a chance to stop and reflect on our day-to-day job. Think about methods we instinctively adopt and means to improve and develop. One of my take-aways from this course is learning to appreciate different personality traits and skill sets. I will always remember that I need to balance my focus and time amongst three elements, the individual, their tasks, and the team. It’s a journey to develop as managers, and this course is a step in the right direction.”
