Rick and I worked together to revise his resume and during our coaching sessions discussed what he was hoping to achieve. Thank you Rick for your kind words!
Carlos Barrera SR. DIRECTOR OF PRODUCT SAFETY (Microsoft)
Anne Marie had an opportunity to discuss Chief of Staffing and here is some feedback Carlos shared:
I do hope that you continue as a mentor. I was attracted to your profile because of the super-diverse professional background you have and because as chief of staff, you get to see a part of the business engineers, like me, normally don't. As a mentor, you were very good at listening to me and asked questions that made me feel like this was important for both of us. There were moments of mutual discovery when you said something like "Oh that's very interesting, I had not seen it from that point of view" or "By telling you how I think of something I remind myself of why it is important" It was not a session where the mentor just goes on and on about their background and provides lots of ideas without checking if they are relevant to the mentee. I really enjoyed the way you spoke about how to work with members of a leadership team, by building trust and understanding what is expected of me in that particular role. Consider sharing this in a short training or a LinkedIn posting.
The thing I most value about working with you is:
Disclaimer: I had spent exactly zero seconds working with Anne Marie before we met. I didn't know her. She didn't know me. Her warmth and openness. It was super refreshing to talk with you during our session, I felt very safe and like I was being heard during the whole session. Your high energy and great sense of humor made the whole experience very enjoyable. Thank you for taking the time and for 'thinking things aloud' with me, it was super helpful.
