The word “superhero” often reminds us of the silver screen: caped crusaders and mighty warriors ready to take on masked villains. It’s easy to forget that real heroes walk among us every day, in our very own workplaces. At Managed Outsourced Virtual Employees (MOVE), we believe in celebrating the exceptional abilities and talents that each member brings to the table. This August, we put the spotlight on our very own “Workplace Superheroes,” giving them a platform to share their unique powers that make our team an unstoppable force.
Monthly Musings: How We Connect
Every month at MOVE is made special as we celebrate the diverse backgrounds that come with each of our team members. From sharing heartwarming anecdotes about our fathers in June to our workplace superhero celebration in August, these monthly musings in our MOVE channel on WhatsApp foster a sense of belonging and unity. Additionally, this monthly ritual is an opportunity for one member to receive a special prize. Everyone votes and the post with the most number of heart actions has a wonderful reward waiting for them.
For the August theme, MOVE members were invited to be proud of their inner workplace superheroes and share a photo or illustration that represents them in their epic personas. As the images flooded in, each accompanied by a description of their unique superpower, it became evident that our team is not just a collection of individuals, but a league of extraordinary professionals.
Superhero Spotlight
Learning about how each and every member works on their own can help everyone perform even better as a team. A few of our MOVE members shared some superpowers and supercharged situations that make them workplace superheroes:
Accounting Clerk Irish: The Accounts Receivable Superhero
Meet Irish, our very own “Accounts Receivable Superhero.” Similar to the enigmatic Catwoman, Irish wields a set of unique skills to solve intricate payment puzzles with a keen eye for accuracy. According to her, “Just as Catwoman is resourceful and independent, so am I.” However, she doesn’t hesitate to ask for help when she needs to so everyone can work smoothly.
Embracing the mantra that making mistakes is an essential part of growth, Irish shows remarkable resilience. Just as a superhero often faces setbacks before emerging stronger, Irish understands that errors are stepping stones to improvement. Her willingness to learn from her experiences and grow from them embodies the essence of a true workplace superhero.
Loan Processor LJ: A Dynamic Star of Determination
The Dynamic Hero of Determination LJ shines with honesty and willpower in addressing challenges. She stated in her sharing, “At work, I’m like a superhero because I have a special way of doing things and I’m always dedicated.”
Always ready to contribute, LJ’s commitment to being an indispensable loan processor shines through. When faced with a client task, LJ’s calculated approach and transparent communication showcase her superhero qualities. As a team member, she makes the first move and performs analysis and research to prepare rigorously for her tasks. She embodies proactivity and an eagerness to help that sets her apart.
CPA Japheth’s Ability: Adaptive Problem-Solving Prowess
Allow us to introduce Japh, a formidable force armed with the remarkable ability of “Adaptive Problem-Solving Prowess.” To Japh, being a hero in the workplace is not just about receiving compensation—it’s about offering something profound to the organization’s journey. His dedication to being a solution provider rather than just an employee speaks volumes about their commitment to a higher purpose.
Japheth expressed how he sees his role at MOVE stating, “I always make it as a goal to become part of solving the problem in the organization by playing my role.” His belief in the power of contribution resonates deeply, reminding us that true heroism lies in actively shaping the course of our workplace’s success.
The Versatile Victor: Camille
The courageous champion and wondrous warrior Camille won MOVE’s monthly activity, garnering 5 votes over her competitors. Meet our dedicated multitasker, a devoted professional, and a loving mom, whose secret power lies in the graceful juggling of work responsibilities while ensuring her children flourish.
From dawn till dusk, her days are a harmonious blend of meetings and playdates, emails and bedtime stories. In the corporate world, she dives into spreadsheets, crafts presentations, and orchestrates conference calls with finesse. Yet, her mom mode is ever at the ready, poised to nurture, teach, and share heartwarming moments with her little one. Camille shared, “ Every task I manage is a testament to my adaptability and determination to excel in every role I undertake.”
The Bottom Line
Being a hero doesn’t require capes or superhuman power. Our abilities come from our ingenuity, devotion, and desire to change the world. At MOVE, we come together as a team of workplace superheroes, turning obstacles into chances and establishing relationships that go beyond the digital workspace.
