Exciting and learning curve everyday.
i work for SAPS under the Hawks division in the management information and strategic planing component where by i deal with compiling/consolidating the performance reports and taking minutes in all management meetings and also to support members with technology systems. As part of the management i have learned to be more professional specially when communicating with my co-workers and stakeholders. sometimes it becomes a challenge to tell someone on a higher rank than me that the information submitted is incorrect but i really enjoy working with the bossess because all my hard work is seen and acknowledged.
Pros: greater opportunities for promotions
