Experience learned in the academia is priceless!

What makes my work worth a while in the academia is the unstructured activities and the unanticipated chaos that comes with the role. I can plan my day in advance but in some instances find myself having to reprioritise what is important and urgent. Therefore being spontaneous and flexible becomes paramount in managing the role of transformation and talent. My role involves managing talent, transformation, social justice and compliance. I have good working relationship with my key stakeholders, the senior executive team, Head of Schools and departments including the Senior Management group and students. I have learned to be resilient and stay calm in difficult situations. Working with such a large cohort of people, more than 30 000 students and 5000 employees have exposed me to the real challenges of human rights and the dire need to address talent management of academics. I truly enjoy making a difference in the lives of the students and my colleagues in the university.

Pros: Anatomy to make decisions and develop strategies
Cons: Career growth prospects limited as a professional staff
