Reaching goals via a new teammate

I'm a good trainer, dare I say better than good? No, I won't do that. But I know my limitations.

Which was a topic for a previous post, not today.  Today, I continue my mission to talk myself up more.  I have a new teammate.  I've had him for two training sessons and today I helped him on his first solo day.

One thing I struggle with is introducing myself to leaders in my area.  So, as a means of getting used to reaching out my own hand, I made sure to introduce my teammate to leaders and coworkers he might come into contact with. It was good practice during our training days because last week, I purposely sought out the park duty manager at opening.

Turns out, he's from the same hometown as my dad.  Made my day.
