In this edition of #BeyondWork we are joined by the very embodiment of the mantra "Show up and care.”
Opening up with us about this approach, which goes beyond the workplace and enriches his personal relationships, we are joined by Jackson Menke, Director of Construction Safety, EdgeConneX. Read along as he reflects on what drives him and ensures innovation every step of the way.
The best part of my job:
The people! The answer to this has to be my amazing colleagues whom I get to interact with every day. Their constant support makes work feel like a breeze, and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have this support system.
Journey with EdgeConneX so far:
Working with the EdgeConneX team has been great! I feel truly grateful to have such a wonderful team. It’s been a joy to soak up the wealth of knowledge that the team brings and I genuinely hope that they feel the same way about me.
Daily source of inspiration:
My family is my biggest motivator and source of inspiration. My two boys Landon (5) and Asher (2) and my wife Anna (whose age I will not be including) are my everything. Everything I do is for them. They are my rock, they keep me grounded and I don’t know what I would do without them.
Something that not many people might know:
I am not a man of many secrets but one thing not many people know about me is that although I have US citizenship, I was actually born in Aberdeen, Scotland.
Success mantra for life:
My mantra for life is simple, “show up and care”. I think that the simple act of showing up and caring often brings us positive outcomes. But showing up and caring is not just about your work, it also extends to the people in your life and I believe that these simple actions all add to the moments that affect our lives and make us better.
