In a few days, it will mark one year since I moved to Berlin. It's incredible to reflect on the journey from receiving a phone call in March 2023 to calling Germany my second home 🇩🇪 As I look forward to another year here, the possibilities are endless. The work of improvement continues, and there is still so much to achieve! Reflecting on the past year in Berlin, it has been both challenging and rewarding. Working with the management team has been a remarkable experience, and the results speak for themselves: ✅ Exceeded KPIs with stable performance ✅ Enhanced communication and transparency through various initiatives ✅ Increased financial awareness among the population ✅ Implemented ramp-ups, creating more opportunities for our team ✅ Fostered collaboration with stakeholders ✅ Revitalized development and growth discussions ✅ Prioritized employee wellbeing ✅ Implemented cost optimization strategies This success is a testament to teamwork, and I am privileged to lead such a dedicated group in Berlin. Challenges and failures have been part of our journey, but together, we have persevered. While operating in a fast-paced environment, we acknowledge the room for improvement in processes to enhance efficiency and agility. In a corporate landscape, decision-making processes can sometimes be slow. However, I am optimistic about the future and the potential for continued progress. #Berlin #ManagementTeam #Achievements #Teamwork #ProfessionalGrowth #tpgermany Teleperformance #proud2beTP

Having spent 10+ years doing so, I know that recruiting software developers has always been challenging. With the tech occupation unemployment rate recently dropping to 1.8%, companies continue to compete for the best talent. Even widespread layoffs across the tech industry hasn't change this dynamic. Highly qualified software professionals are difficult to attract and even more difficult to retain. I've partnered with the talented TA and Engineering teams at TravelPerk to fine-tune the recruitment process in order to ensure that we're attracting and retaining top talent. 🔎 💻 Here are some of the key aspects we focus on: - Create a relevant/interesting hiring process - Be clear about what we expect, and what candidates should expect - Value skills over formal education - Use specialised tools to speed up/improve candidate experience - Use "real-world" tests - Assess technical and soft skills - Make decisions quickly We're proud of our hiring process.

A few reasons why we love the LATAM tech talent: - Technical Excellence: The universities and tech hubs across Latin America produce phenomenally skilled engineers, developers, and IT pros. This talent is world-class. - Multilingual & Global Mindset: Many LATAM professionals are fluent in English and Spanish (or Portuguese), giving them a cultural flexibility that strengthens collaboration across borders. - Diverse Perspectives: The varied cultures and backgrounds of LATAM team members foster innovation through diverse thinking and problem-solving approaches. - Hungry for Success: We've found LATAM professionals to be highly motivated to excel, often from modest upbringings. Their hunger propels our teams forward. If you're not yet tapping into the incredible LATAM talent pool, you're missing out on some of the world's best and brightest.

Learning in the most unexpected places: Insights from an Uber Chat! I had the most fascinating chat with my Uber driver yesterday – proof that valuable insights can come from unexpected places! My driver, originally from Jamaica, shared his journey from New York to Toronto, offering a unique perspective on cultural transitions and professional landscapes. Here's what I learned: - Cultural Contrasts: He highlighted the contrasting dynamics between countries - the competitive drive in Jamaica and the U.S. versus Canada's more laid-back atmosphere. - Challenges of Connection: Despite Canada's warmth and diversity, he found it challenging to break through social barriers and build connections, echoing the struggle many face in forging networks, especially as newcomers. Key Takeaway: The value of openness and inclusivity cannot be overstated. As professionals, let's strive to create environments where everyone feels welcomed and empowered to connect. Whether in the workplace or our communities, fostering an inclusive culture enriches us all. Let's continue these conversations, learning from each other's experiences and embracing the strength of our collective diversity. #Networking #DiversityandInclusion #ProfessionalInsights
