  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I have became so much more confident in myself, this is from interacting with all different and senior stakeholders. I have been pushed out of my comfort zone many of times but this has allowed me to develop new skills in programs such as excel and adopting challenger thinking.
