take ownership
‘Take ownership – that’s what this project was about for me’ said trainee Yvonne Spaltman. For her second project as part of the international management traineeship at Aalberts, Yvonne was located at Aalberts integrated piping systems, in Hilversum, The Netherlands. From start to finish, she was given full responsibility and autonomy over the project. This degree of freedom allowed for flexibility, efficiency, and creativity during the project and bolstered her social skills, tacit knowledge, and a steep learning curve.
