my typical day at work is going out to the field collecting data then coming back and capturing it since i have worked in this position i have had a lot of experience interacting with different people the most difficult part about this job is that people are very reluctant to giving out info but with my great abilities of being able to communicate very well,having a great smile and being professional i have little challenges now.what i enjoy the most about this job is that i get to work with different people who have different opinions and ideas ,working as a team has been a huge learning curve for me.

Being Part of a startup company

Day start with staff meeting where a project plan per delivery is looked at to see if we still on track in terms of deliveries and a plan going forward, high level meetings will follow this where the work flow is discussed in terms of whats coming and what is getting delivered at the soonest dates. Relationship with co-workers is more on the family level since i was one the managers appointed to establish Gauteng branch, I have learned people management and to work and deliver under tremendous pressure. a lot of our staff members are kinda new on the telecommunication fibre build business and having mentored 19 students and seeing them all get contracts from the company was priceless for me. I could say transferring information to the up and coming youngsters is more fulfilling. The most challenging is managing contractors and meeting delivery dates which will then translate into happy clients, However it is great to close a project.

Pros: More growth with in the company
Cons: Uncooperating team
