Please provide examples of how you demonstrate systems thinking and sense-making ability in your career (Approx 100-300 words) | |
| I demonstrate systems thinking and sense-making by understanding how each part of the agency connects and how small disruptions can ripple across teams. As a member of MANCO, I work closely with EXCO to identify dependencies, anticipate challenges, and ensure departments operate cohesively. I have implemented and reorganized multiple internal systems to streamline studio operations, including in-depth handovers, quarterly reports, and aligned studio timelines that improve cross-team workflows. I regularly update credentials presentations to reflect our capabilities and strategically support client engagement. I have also championed technology-driven improvements, advocating for timesheet and job management tools like Magnetic to reduce manual input, improve accountability, and enhance efficiency. By translating complex interdependencies into practical systems, I enable both leadership and teams to make informed decisions. These interventions foster smoother workflows, stronger collaboration, and consistent output, ensuring the studio and agency can operate efficiently while driving sustained growth. |
