Working together

Half of November, all of December and most of January. My time with Mark and Jon at Rittman Mead Consulting has certainly flown, but that’s probably because I am enjoying the job

In my old role, I was regarded as the company BI expert (or at least that as far as the UK went) and in some ways this was quite isolating. Here things are different.

All of us at Rittman Mead are actually quite good at what we do, but we are different people with different experiences, sometimes these experiences overlap sometimes they don’t. So one of the things that really is good about working here is that it is not just one consultant and one consultant’s ideas; we bounce ideas off each other, ask each other about best practice and seek out “the hands-on done it” from the “read-it in the manual” experience. This makes work really enjoyable as you have that comfort that your colleagues are there for you, which in turn allows you to deliver a better service to your client

    I can completely relate to this statement:
    “in some ways this was quite isolating”.

    I too am in a role where a lot of my work is done sans team. I find myself seeking a virtual community more as I really miss having colleagues to share ideas with. I find the virtual communities to help as I love reading some of the blogs. Perhaps I’ll start my own…
    be well -
