Personal Characteristics
Positive, loyal and containing a strong sense of responsibility. Good at organizing, communication and motivating of people. Strong in building the bridge between HR and emloyees. Because of my professional and personal development, started as HR assistant and now HR manager, I am able to approach questions from several angles and this gives an added value to oversee the complete picture. I have a passion for people in general, but most of all to motivate, stimulate and guide them within their professional and private life.
