Melisa H.’s Post

In some of my recent discussions, there's been a great round-up of thinking that highlights the real need to question current operating models prevalent in the industry and their fitness for purpose. This resonates deeply with my own journey in 2024. Six months ago, I embarked on a journey—one that has been both challenging and rewarding. Last month, I touched a much-awaited professional milestone as I completed the EY Center for Board Matters - Board Ambassador Program. It has been transformative, as the program was filled with invaluable lessons and the opportunity to connect with some of the brightest minds in the industry. Reflecting on recent discussions, it's clear we've got a lot on our plates already. As we sharpen our skills and get ready to shape our strategic future, as upcoming board leaders and executives we explored how to redefine societal impact. Stepping up as Board Ambassadors, we are eager to motivate leaders to embrace change, balance stakeholder needs and uphold environmental and social responsibilities, all while staying profitable. To all those considering similar programs, I can affirm it is an investment in yourself that pays dividends in professional excellence and personal fulfillment. So, here's to the continuous pursuit of greatness. It’s time to drive positive change together. #EY #BoardMatters #BetterWorkingWorld #Allin Michael Kanazawa Kris Pederson

Here’s a little story from my 6-month journey at Deloitte USI Consulting. Not to flaunt, but to share what recognition can look like in a busy, competitive environment. Hitting this milestone feels good for sure because why not, not just for the chance to make a mark in a short time, but because of the small, thoughtful gesture that said, “we see your effort.” It’s amazing how a bit of recognition can make a difference. For everyone in the field, both professionals and leaders: push your talent forward. Give them reasons to go that extra mile and to feel valued. This isn’t just about monetary rewards; it can be anything that makes someone feel appreciated. Even a simple acknowledgment goes a long way in boosting morale and building long-term performance. Good night 😊✌️❤️ #rewards #recognition #design #professionals

We are proud to present the overview of the first edition of Deloitte Values Championship in CE Consulting. The core concept of the DVC Program revolves around recognizing and honoring our colleagues who exemplify Deloitte Shared Values and consistently demonstrate them in their daily actions. ✨ DVC is a platform where every individual can both nominate and be nominated, with the opportunity to emerge as a winner in 5 categories: People Hero and Values Leader are the individual ones, whereas Innovation Champions, Sales Champions and Cooperation Champions are the team categories. Thanks to the invaluable insights from CE Consulting practitioners, we have uncovered hundreds of incredible inspirations, received 374 nominations (almost 500 nominees), and faced the challenge of selecting 22 exceptional winners (individuals and teams). As DVC is all about the recognition, every nominee (in total 747 e-mails) received a message underscoring the impact of their actions on others and the business at large. Heartfelt congratulations to all the winners and nominees! 🏆 DVC has proven that people in CE Consulting are great and inspiring fostering the culture of appreciation as an integral element of Deloitte DNA. 🟢 #Recognition #DeloitteSharedValues #Awards #Champions #PeopleHero #ValuesLeader #DeloitteCulture #Innovation #SalesExcellence #Cooperation

Honored to Lead My First Reverse Mentorship Session ! Today, I had the privilege of conducting my first reverse mentorship session with Anshul Aggarwal, Partner at KPMG India. It was an enriching experience to share insights and perspectives, proving that learning truly knows no hierarchy. Reverse mentorship not only bridges generational gaps but also fosters an environment of mutual growth and innovation. Grateful for the opportunity to contribute and learn alongside such experienced leaders. Looking forward to more of these sessions! #KPMGIndia #Reversementorship #LearningAndDevelopment #GrowthMindset

⭐️Sharing My Experience at EY 🌟 I am thrilled to share my journey at EY, where I've found an blend of growth, inspirational leadership(few), and a culture of continuous learning. "Leadership is not about being in charge. It is about taking care of those in your charge." - Simon Sinek EY's emphasis on continuous learning has been a game-changer for me. The access to professional development programs, certifications, and industry-leading research ensures that we are always at the cutting edge of our fields. As Benjamin Franklin said, "An investment in knowledge pays the best interest," and EY's investment in our learning proves this time and again. Collaboration and innovation are at the heart of our work at EY. Working with dynamic teams that value creative solutions and challenges the status quo keeps our projects exciting and impactful. The sense of purpose and fulfillment I get from knowing our work makes a real difference is unparalleled. In the words of Steve Jobs, "The only way to do great work is to love what you do." P.S - This post is for a few good people who exist in EY, who have courtesy, empathy, heart, respect, care for others. and it's not for everyone in EY. EY as a brand is great, outside India EY culture is soo good but in India people in EY are taking undue advantage of their designations and creating a mess. Secondly, EY as a brand is wonderful but 90% please sitting inside are harassing, torturing and humiliating other innocent people which result in damage to life & career. Work culture never improved but it is worsening day by day. #LifeAtEY #Leadership #ContinuousLearning #Innovation #dreamcompany

Leadership, Not Just the Company, Shapes the Work Culture The tragic incident at EY, where a young woman lost her life due to work pressure, has sparked widespread concern about the work culture in Big 4 firms and across the corporate world. But is this truly a company-specific issue, or is there something deeper at play? Having worked in 5 companies across 8 processes in my 10-year career, I’ve come to believe that it’s not the company that’s inherently good or bad – it’s the leadership that defines the environment. In my experience, strong leaders create supportive and comfortable workplaces, while poor leaders contribute to toxic environments. It’s the managers, the ones who are supposed to guide and support their teams, that shape our work lives – for better or worse. If we want real change, it’s time to focus on developing great leaders who can foster healthy, balanced work environments. Let’s shift the conversation from blaming companies to improving leadership development. #LeadershipMatters #WorkCulture #CorporateResponsibility #LeadershipDevelopment #Big4 #EY #MentalHealthAtWork NatWest Group Genpact TaskUs WNS HCLTech KPMG KPMG US KPMG India Delloite Consulting PwC PwC India American Express
