The moment I found myself featured on Nokia's official website (the very first time) was a proud and defining moment in my career. It was a recognition of the hard work and dedication I had put into my role, and it felt like a validation of my contributions to the company. Seeing my name and achievements showcased on such a prestigious platform was not only a personal triumph but also a testament to the support and opportunities that Nokia provides.

Beyond talent, I have realized that we need so much more to have a very successful career. Realizing a dream can take longer and include setbacks. From my personal experience, I have noticed that being open, resilient, flexible, and having an attitude to serve helps immensely. While aspiring to grow, we need to prepare well with concrete homework. Having the right attitude and a prompt, service mindset is crucial. One has to keep learning (and unlearning) and be prepared for the next big thing. As an example, while you are working on 5G, start preparing yourself for 6G. On the softer side, empathy and humility should be key attributes to be practiced. Managing emotions and being mindful play a huge role. Transparent communication and openness towards the multi-cultural and virtual environment are very important. Staying motivated and being a change management leader is critical. Find time to build your personal brand and network. Look for a suitable mentor who can make your journey smoother. Finally, never compromise on your Integrity, continue to build relationships, and grow trust.

You don't need to have 1000 goals, you just need a couple and to know exactly what those are, to articulate a clear road map out to get there and then doing your best is the right thing to do, knowing that we couldn't do better and that the current outcome is the profit of our hard work. Then, by creating a friendly and great environment you will never feel that you are working but just cooperating and having a good time with your mates.

Your dreams show what you can become. They are your hopes, what you love, and the future you want. Always be ready to learn new things. Learning helps you grow. Identify your fears and challenge them. Don't let fear hold you back from pursuing your goals and taking risks. Take responsibility for your growth, development, and success. Don't wait for others to empower you; empower yourself. Don't be afraid to ask questions, even if you think they might sound basic. Asking questions demonstrates curiosity and a desire to learn.
