Tatiana Morrell, Director of Community Operations at Uber, suggests that leaning into your strengths can help you drive your professional growth. “You’ll go further by expanding on what you’re already good at than you will by forcing yourself to be something you’re not,” she says. Tatiana is among a handful of leaders joining a career panel this month to share their professional growth stories with employees across Uber. The event is part of a wider company initiative called Drive Your Growth Week, which is designed to help empower Uber employees to take ownership of their professional development. Three of those leaders have agreed to share their tips here to help employees everywhere maximize their strengths. Here are their top 5.
It’s Drive Your Growth week here at Uber with a full suite of new learning opportunities, panels, and bite-sized development tools designed to help our team take ownership of their professional development and #GoGetIt.
