To answer and put it simply. An old mentor told me "If someone is willing to teach you something even if it's out of your realm of interest take that opportunity as you may never know when it may come in handy". Many of us by now, have realized that many at the workplace are consumed by their own personal interests and battles. Some may even struggle with insecurities and will retain information from you. A person willing to share knowledge is a treasure to be cherished.

Isso traz uma renovação contínua de conhecimento e não me estaciona na zona de conforme, ajudando assim a ter mais empatia e mais escuta ativa com todos os setores e participação das pessoas de cada equipe nos projetos.

Never stop learning. Never stop doing. Economists predict that a worker today will have at least five careers during their lifetime. I am on that track. I started out in journalism as a reporter for a small town newspaper with roles as a writer, photographer, and editor. That led to a greater role in Florida. An interest in computers led to a job at my hometown school district where I worked 18 years in computer technology. At the same time, I started my own business as a software consultant. After many fine years, I switched gears and got into healthcare, first in Columbus, Ohio and now in Cleveland, Ohio. So, you see, each interest can build upon each other and you meet a diverse crowd who all share your interest of excellence.
Engaging in temporary or contract work opens up numerous networking opportunities. You'll meet professionals from various backgrounds and expertise, which can lead to future job offers, partnerships, or mentorships.

The use of texting has brought instant feedback to our colleagues and companies. In our busy world, it helps to be able to reach out and set schedules on the fly, even if our weekly schedules are set. Redirection of resources and manpower on an hour by hour or minute by minute basis is at our fingertips. Multi-layer conversations assist as the new team meeting for distant players. Communication is the heart of efficiency.
Temporary and contract roles often come with financial incentives such as higher hourly rates or project-based pay. These incentives can motivate you to perform at your best and also give you the financial freedom to invest in furthering your education or professional certifications.

Each new role provides a chance to tackle different challenges and achieve measurable outcomes, demonstrating your capability to adapt and succeed in various settings.

In the NGO that I work in, I use a work system according to existing or ongoing projects. Indeed, for now I am using the concept of temporary workers. Tai in my opinion is how leaders create an environment of certainty. Certainty is a moment when we do everything there is a reason behind it, there is a goal we want to achieve and there is good we want to do. Humans live in a dream that can be trusted, problems of obstacles and even failure will be acceptable if the Leader also guarantees everything that is done and the Leader is truly involved in the project run by the organization
