Kristiana’s Story
Before I began my career at C.H. Robinson, I worked for a small marketing company where I was the only designer responsible for all projects, from printed brochures and catalogs to website design to video. While this was a wonderful learning experience, I ultimately wanted to find a place where I could work in a team environment and collaborate with others that would inspire me and push me to the next level. I found what I was looking for when C.H. Robinson hired me to be a web designer in their Marketing Department.
I found Marketing to be a vibrant and energetic team that touched many different areas of the company with their work. I liked the variety of each day, working on projects for many different internal clients and meeting lots of new people. I also found the professional advice and feedback from others on my team and my manager helpful to my development, not only as a designer, but also as a future leader on the team.
When my fellow web team member left, I was given the opportunity to take on more responsibility as a manager of the web team. I really enjoyed this change of pace and continued to learn and grow through training, including the C.H. Robinson manager training course and the 360 Degree review. Utilizing my network of internal resources, as well as taking on an outside mentor, I've continued to develop as a leader and have since started managing additional employees and directing all the web initiatives for Marketing.
I am very thankful for all the opportunities that C.H. Robinson has given me to grow my career. As a woman, I appreciate that C.H. Robinson values and strives for diversity in leadership and rewards those who work hard and show results. I feel motivated to do my best every day because I work with a team that is committed to positive change. I look forward to all the challenges and new opportunities that lie ahead!
