2021-02-24 - Philips, Outstanding Technical Achievement Award - Eager to inspire & Team up to win
The Outstanding Achievement Award is Philips global prestigious award given to candidates who have achieved exceptional results, demonstrating role model behaviour in the Philips' behaviours, namely: Customer first, Quality and integrity always, Team up to win, Take ownership to deliver fast, Eager to improve and inspire.
The award was presented to me for showing outstanding behaviours on two separate occassions in 2020:
Inspiring the quality and regulatory compliance officers who are non-technical, to pick up coding skills and understand the processes involved in producing a software asset. This helped them to understand their products better, and proactively work with architects and managers to fulfil the quality and regulatory compliances during the release, as compared to the same steps taking about 30 - 60 days after the verification & validation cycles.
Teaming up with the global cross-functional teams to roll-out a hiring framework for software engineers, which is data-driven, interviewer friendly and adopts quantiative analysis techniques to hire for Philips. The framework was also quoted in an harvard business review, as part of ground breaking ways companies are adopting hiring processes: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/nicolebueters_reengineering-the-recruitment-process-activity-6771198111462277120-1tGd
