Freedom of Development
When discussing autonomy in her development path, Adeline speaks highly of the supportive environment at Eraneos. “One of the things I value most here is the autonomy I have over my professional development,” she remarked. This autonomy, coupled with the support from mentors and peers, has allowed her to tailor her learning journey to her interests and career goals. “My mentors and colleagues have been instrumental in guiding me, but ultimately, the decision on what skills to develop and which directions to explore has been mine to make,” she explains. This approach has empowered her to pursue projects aligned with her personal development goals, fostering a sense of ownership and satisfaction in her work. “It’s empowering to know that my growth is in my hands, supported by a network of experts who are as committed to my success as they are to the organization’s.”

Her language skills help her in her career and also allow her to connect with people from different cultures. “Finding common ground with someone from a different culture is rewarding,” she noted. Her journey is about learning for personal fulfillment and understanding the world and its people better.
