(A Holistic Approach)

The Balance Between Professional Success and Personal Fulfillment (A Holistic Approach); mindfulness; life; life lessons; lifestyle; mental health

It doesn’t matter that I was the director of an international company. I was responsible for quality management and continuous improvement. The life lessons I received during that time are far more important.

It was only a matter of time before I became concerned with continuously improving productivity. I know that when you ask questions, you find answers and solutions. I never asked myself, “Why can’t I do something?” The natural question was: “How can I do [you name it]?”

The Importance of a Holistic Approach

My work required a holistic approach to the company’s ecosystem. I believe any manager should understand the role of each part. It’s essential not to be a jerk who says, “I’m only interested in this.” For someone like that, either you educate them, or if they insist, you let them go because they harm the team, the department, and the company. It’s like a rotten apple in a basket.
