Comments like this are one of the main reasons I love recruitment. Being able to help both candidates and clients find their ideal position/candidates on both a personal and professional level is one of the most rewarding experiences. It's an amazing feeling knowing you're helping change people's lives for the better. What's the most rewarding aspect of your role?

Check out our version of our 2023 year in review, "Hope is a Discipline," written by our Managing Director, Dave Baker. Wishing you all a BitterSweet New Year :)

I've learned so much being part of the McChrystal Group team that it's hard to believe I've only been here for two years. The work this team does every day for our clients is not only interesting and impressive (though it is both) - it is impactful. I am inspired by the difficult, trusted advisor conversations being had, and the care that each of my colleagues brings to their work and client relationships. When you have the opportunity to bring forth innovative ideas, debate and refine them rigorously with colleagues, and then go execute them with clients who have big goals and even bigger visions... you work in a pretty special place. #teamofteams #leadershipdevelopment

"When people don't have control and autonomy over their work they get psychological and physiological issues. Disease in their body - when they don't feel like they have control". I can honestly say that control and autonomy are the very things that make me successful in my role at HubSpot. I am the bottom line. It's all there for the taking and equally there to be lost. It's all within my control. This means the motivation to succeed and do good work comes from me and through me. My manager trusts me to do this, supports me in how I do it & this autonomy, control and trust drives me to never take that for granted. I have two children, a husband and like many people a lot of "stuff" outside of work. Working for a manager that allows me to work autonomously means that I want more than anything not to lose that. It drives me to perform better for myself, my family and of course my team, manager and company. For 15 months I have consistently surpassed my targets, attainment and been a top performer in my segment. Trust your staff to do good work, reward them for doing it and I can guarantee you they'll never want to lose that.
