Sabia que queria entrar na profissão de risco? Se não, qual foi a sua viagem para chegar aqui?

During my field visit in area development programmes to gather content for World Vision support offices, I noticed one or two issues that needed concern, change, and action. I would alert and inform my communications manager about lessons learned and recommendations from my field visit report. I would outline what needs to be done to change the reputation of the organisation. She would follow up with my requests to the regional managers. I have supported about four communication incidents reports. I was supported by the communications manager as I learned through the process. That was before I started and completed the Management of Reputation course. I have been trained in the Enterprise Risk Management software. I have learned that it is not an easy process, but with a commitment, you learn to understand how to manage a reputation for an organisation like World Vision. I am interested in risk and reputation issues as an individual and a career progression growth. I want to be one of the first-ever communications specialists to tackle any risk-related incident in World Vision. When given such an opportunity, I will ensure that I perform to the best of my ability. I want to gain a chance for me to build my capacity in terms of training others on how to identify risk and reputation that might affect our work as World Vision in the community.

Há quanto tempo trabalha na profissão de risco?

I have supported communication incidents reports from 2016

O que é que mais gosta no que faz?

When I give back to the community to the most vulnerable children through the content I gather to ensure they get the support they need to give them life in all its fullness. To see a happy family with access to clean and safe water, health, and ensure children are well protected, and they have a good education. That gives me a pleasure of peace in my heart.

A gestão do risco mudou ao longo da sua carreira? Em caso afirmativo, como?

I learned the value of how to manage a risk. I can see myself in the near future using my knowledge and skills to sharpen my abilities on management of reputation. I think I am now valuable in that I can change the course of my career in risk. How to manage the reputation of an organization.

Que conselho daria a alguém que está prestes a iniciar a sua carreira na profissão de risco?

Be interested, be motivated, be agile about learning and growth opportunity, be passionate, be focused, and be a go-getter.

Tem um lema pessoal? Em caso afirmativo, qual é?

We have two ways to do things in life, you do good, and you achieve anything and everything you want in life, and bad and you lose everything.
