People are at the heart of our business. Therefore, we want to continue to share stories on our talented employees who have embraced opportunities within our organization.
We’ve had the pleasure to hear from Amico Tania who is the Business Unit Manager for ALCEA, Italy within our business area Critical Infrastructure. Having recently taken on her first leadership role, Tania shares her experience and the personal development she is going through as part of her growth into leadership.
“My journey with ASSA ABLOY began 24 years ago at Yale. Over the years, I've navigated through various roles within the company. Thanks to internal mobility I have acquired skills in specification, sales, and business development – building strong relationships with customers, partners and colleagues within our organisation.”
What I love most about my role:
Having started my new role just a few months ago, I am still learning, and each day brings new discoveries and challenges. With every small success, my self-confidence grows. Building trust is a priority for me, as trust is earned through leading by example and never giving up. Assuming responsibility for other people’s professional development and happiness is reshaping me as I explore my new identity as a manager, which I believe will involve a constant evolution.
What makes ASSA ABLOY special:
ASSA ABLOY is a solid and dynamic company with a strong focus on innovative technologies. The multicultural environment continually inspires me. When I applied for my new role, I felt that I could count not only on my personal self-motivation but also on the support of my colleagues and of the management team around me.
My experience of internal mobility:
Taking up a new opportunity is a personal and professional imperative for me. Last year I was given the opportunity to step into my first leadership position as the Business Unit Manager for ALCEA, Italy. This has been a great achievement for me and not without its challenges, but as the saying goes “if nothing ventured, nothing gained”. In my experience, internal mobility improves employee growth, and in my case, it provided opportunities to advance my career, develop new skills, and embark on fresh experiences.
My Advice:
The advice I would like to give is to let yourself be curious and that it’s never too late to aspire for a better position or test yourself in a new role. Only through change is it possible to challenge yourself and improve.
