Activities undertaken

Initially, NE needed to understand the company's services and vision, engage with colleagues, and offer a workshop to enhance group work. Moving forward, NE delved into comparative analysis of marketing, sales, HR, and project management processes, supporting HE's work through data recording and guidance on prosocial behaviors. In the third phase, NE researched service delivery systems in Romania and Hungary, presenting findings, while HE detailed the company's methods and social impact.

Later on we started coming up with ideas for innovating conflict resolution methods, and started formulating a work plan. HE provided crucial mentoring. The final two months involved HE advising on marketing, NE exploring new ideas, and collaborative plan refinement. In the concluding phase, NE submitted a comprehensive report evaluating the collaboration, leading to the development of a partnership contract and scheme with HE, reflecting on the transformative half a year experience.
