I have sped up the process of quality assurance of an upgraded instance and helped with budgeting.<\/p>\n<p>On the quality assurance project, I did a lot of different things. I was in charge of making an excel sheet with directions on how to test a lot of different things. What I worked on specifically was a supplier uploader that would allow vendors to update their own banking information. I had to create test cases for different situations that the business may encounter while using the supplier uploader. It was really rewarding to finally finish this project after some setbacks I encountered. I am still new to the processes and I made some mistakes that push the timeline back a little.<\/p>\n<p>For the budgeting project, I was tasked with reconciling actual numbers and the f0recasted numbers for June. This project I was more confident doing because I have done the process for May actuals already. I still felt like I helped speed up the process a lot because when I was working, the woman I worked with was able to work on other things. This means that she could get more done since I was responsible for the budgeting project that is usually on her list of responsibilities.<\/p>\n<p>My insights about leadership have allowed me to look at situations differently. Instead of looking at certain situations as setbacks, they allow me to evaluate what is going on in a different light. I can look at what is happening around me and realize that sometimes it&#8217;s not necessarily something I can change. There&#8217;s a lot of things going on in people&#8217;s lives that change how they interact in a leadership situation and taking leadership classes has shown me what to look for. There are certain situations that are still frustrating since it is still corporate America, but I am able to appreciate the levels that go into leadership. I think it has also taught me how hard being a leader is. Everyone thrives under different styles and it can be very hard to figure out the best way to lead someone after only knowing them a short time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I think that I have done a lot for Cvent throughout my time.
