CHEUNG Yuen Wai, Minnie
Determined to stay competitive in the ever-evolving HR industry, I embarked on this master’s journey with a strong commitment to make a difference, particularly during the challenging times of COVID-19. The transition from face-to-face to online classes was remarkably smooth. The virtual learning environment, enhanced with interactive tools such as polls and breakout sessions, turned out to be surprisingly engaging.
The programme’s adaptability and the valuable insights from guest speakers were truly exceptional. Networking opportunities with industry leaders and practical electives such as negotiation and mediation not only enriched my professional life but also improved my daily interactions. A highlight of the programme was the coaching sessions, which provided deep insights into workplace behaviours and tendencies. With guidance from a skilled coach, I developed a more critical professional approach and learned to stay aware of potential blind spots.
Reflecting on my experience, I’ve discovered a passion for people-centric approaches and the crucial role of culture in organisations. As we move beyond COVID-19, I am eager to foster positive corporate cultures that prioritise employee well-being. I am grateful that I made this great decision, and for the enriching journey it has provided!
