I had a great conversation this afternoon with my secretary. I was fortunate this week to be able to select her for an analyst position. She came out of the panel interviews as the #1 recommendation. So I trusted the panelists' advice! It gave me great pleasure yesterday to tell her that she is moving on. She was ecstatic and thanked me profusely.
At the end of the day today we had a long conversation about our experiences and yes, she's one smart cookie! Her life has shaped her well beyond her years! She's had a few tough knocks along the way, but has refused to let it get to her. She presses forward and has "determination and persistence" down!
No doubt I will look back some day on all that she is bound to accomplish. I expect that eventually she will be one of my peers...or better! The cream always rises to the top and it will be fun watching this one soar!!!
Being a front-line supervisor is mostly challenging...but this is one of the rewards of the job. And the best part is that I know this bright, positive, talented and charming young woman will also pay it forward...
