Successful Start in the New Job
Hey, my dear friends all over the world,
I would like to share what happened last week for me in my new job.
As some of you might know, I had the opportunity to change jobs on July 1st within the Procter and Gamble Company to become the assistant of the Global Human Resources Director at Wella, the hair care company. That itself is already thrilling, but also my first project was to organize the global leadership team Meeting (24 people) for 3 days in a very nice hotel near Frankfurt, Germany.
The intent was that the new global Wella director would meet all of his leadership team members (Wella country leaders, head of external communications, chief of supply chain management, etc.) so that they could define how to work together in the future to archive their goals.
So my first project was to find the hotel, organize an event agency to have some teambuilding activities, put presentations together, organize prizes for a little award ceremony afterwards, organize and coordinate shuttles, prepare logistic stuff (beamers, loudspeakers, laptops, videos), and much more 
.
And what shall I say? It was a full success!
After the 3 days, they called me and I entered the conference room. I thought, they had finished and I could pack everything together. But everybody was still seated and then Sonja, my boss, said “and now a big applause for Hilli, who organized everything so perfectly”. The crowd gave me standing ovations! Then Kevin, the new Global Wella director, said that I did an amazing job. It was incredible that I have been there for only a few weeks now. I did so much to make this event a big success and “although you are here for such a short period of time, you handled everything like a total Pro!” I took a bow and said “Thank you so much. It was my pleasure and I had a lot of fun”.
Additionally Kevin gave me an envelope with a personal letter of him, saying thank you again: “I liked the venue very much and you handled so many details to make this week a big success. All the logistics were handled with perfection.”
The next morning I had another email from my boss Sonja, saying “Thank you again for the perfect organization and your always open and friendly manner. I am so happy to have you in my team!”
I felt so connected to everybody and also received very nice emails from the participants, being back at home. It was a great start to work there and to get to know the people.
But without transformation and all the skills I learned through Ariel and Shya, it would never have been possible. Share transformation, it makes a difference: for yourself and for other people! Thank you Ariel and Shya and Thanks to all of you for being in my life!
Love,
Hilli
