Employee Profile:
Mary Thrive
Mary has been employed with the agency for over 15 years and has become dissatisfied in her role as an office administrator. Many of her long-time peers have moved on to other agencies or have transferred to other areas of the company, due to offered training opportunities. She has been interested in these opportunities in the past — but been overlooked. She has not reapplied in 3 years. Mary has an average emotional intelligence — she tends to be a bit disconnected at times, and her perceived employer support hasn’t helped. She seems to have drifted from relationships with coworkers. She tends to make rash decisions and “goes through the motions”, which is beginning to impact her work quality.
