Understanding, anticipating and exceeding the customer's expectations, is the key to providing exceptional customer service. Gathering customer insights, market feedback, developing customer service programs and initiatives, paired with team training and development are all crucial elements to achieve business growth and success.My strengths are my proven ability to build and lead successful teams, through creating a positive, inclusive and supportive team environment, providing clear leadership with open communication, defining team goals and objectives and working collaboratively. With formal qualifications in training and facilitation, I adopt a mentoring and coaching leadership style. I am passionate about developing and empowering teams to leverage their strengths, to drive KPIs and strive for continuous improvements. Honesty, trust and integrity are my core values, which is the key ingredient to my success in leadership roles.Throughout my career, I've been inspired and energized by new challenges and leading projects where I can collaborate with colleagues, leverage stakeholders, lead and guide the team to successfully achieve the outcomes. I enjoy working in fluid, fast paced environments and I'm experienced in leading change and transformation activities, including the introduction of new aircraft into fleets, developing workforce strategies to accommodate changing market and business demand and developing training programs and manual suites. I'm a committed and self-motivated individual with an analytical and methodical approach to problem solving complexed matters and have the dedication to drive outcomes.I'm excited by the prospects of a new career opportunity whether it be in customer experience, hospitality, people management/leadership or aviation and can be reached via phone, email or Linkedin.
