I am Angeelika and this is my Workplace User Manual

Leadership

Have you ever found a functionality on a product/item you have used for quite some time, and then feel you have wasted so much time and resources because you did not know about it? I know that feeling. When you work with someone you don't know very well, it can take a meaningful amount of time to get used to how they work. When these expectations, quirks, and tips are documented, it reduces the ambiguity and the surprises. It does not intend to replace or override the relationship and mutual understanding we will build as we work together. It intends to give you an idea of how I think and how I work. Think of a Workplace User Manual as it is with any other manual. Dynamic products have manuals so that people can get the most from their investments. They may not need it, but they’re likely better off with it. It is never completely finished, as I evolve, adapt and change as any forward-looking person should aspire to.
