I joined Empa-T after suffering from burnout and at a time when the market no longer had a place for me. Here, I met people who saw potential in me when I myself could no longer see it. Today, I’m working for a leading client and doing what I love. Without even realising it, and managing to set my pride aside with admirable skill, I’m being coached! I work better today because someone is still working on helping me improve! Thank you!
