"What have you learned about management from your time here at SHM?"
- AB
Since I've been in college, I have heard and learned about different types of management; managing up, managing down, and cross management. In past jobs, I have always had a manager/boss telling me what to do and although I learned about these different types, I thought this is how it always would be.
Ever since I've been at SHM, I've learned otherwise. I've learned that here, management is what you make of it. If you need to take charge of something and manage others, go for it. We're given a kind of freedom here that is hard for me to explain.
For example, I just managed myself recently because I thought of a project to do on my own and completed it because it was something I was interested in learning about and finding results for. Nobody stopped me from doing this project, I was actually strongly encouraged to do it because I'm not the only one interested in the results.
I've learned that managing works in many different ways and managing can only work if you're all working together.
