Safety Manager
Working with Knauf helps me become the best version of myself. For 4 years now, I strongly believe that our growth in the organization comes from coaching, listening, and open-mindedness to different perspectives. With the organization’s psychologically safe environment and culture, I learned how to speak up and accept better ideas of each and every individual. Knowing that what I do everyday helps contribute to another’s journey is the most fulfilling role I can have. I am looking forward to more learnings and experiences throughout my stay in the company.
