International Women’s Week Spotlight – Rachel McGrogan

A great leader is someone that is hardworking, dedicated, and empathetic. A great leader is always trying to help others succeed and pushing people to their greatest potential. Helping new and younger colleagues gain confidence in their skills so that they too one day can help lead others. You have to keep in the back of your mind that work isn’t the only thing in people’s lives and some people have daily struggles physically, mentally, or both. You have to recognize this and be understanding at times to let people know you care. A great leader steps in and helps wherever is needed even if that isn’t exactly their job description. A great leader remembers that they had to start from the bottom too, work their way up, and somewhere along the lines another great leader showed them the way.
