HOW MAGGIE HELPS US ALL GROW Our Resident Gardening Expert
Here at The Newsletter Pro, we have a lot of fun terminology, but one of our personal favorites started as an attempt to describe our amazing team lead and project manager, Maggie Thompson. Because Maggie is always going out of her way to show consideration for her teammates — whether she is bringing in “just because” cupcakes, dropping candy off at your desk, or recommending a TV show or podcast she thinks you’ll love — we have started to refer to any acts of kindness around the office as “being Maggie’d.”
While she is definitely known for her thoughtfulness, Maggie is also quite famous for her sensational green thumb. “My husband and I have spent a fair amount of time cleaning up the planters, debating what we wanted to grow, making too many trips to Home Depot, and painstakingly weeding the garden,” Maggie says. “Now, after all that preparation, we spend lots of time enjoying the fruits of our labor.” When it comes to horticultural trade secrets, Maggie explains that being willing to prepare, make adjustments, and oversee several moving parts are all fundamental to success. The foresight that she possesses in the gardening sphere has definitely bled into her role as a team lead. Maggie’s position requires ample preparedness but also relies on her ability to recalibrate those plans when necessary. Just as she has to deal with variables like too much sunshine or rain affecting the growth of a fruit or vegetable, navigating changes on the fly makes up a large part of Maggie’s role at work as well.
Fortunately for us, Maggie revels in the sometimes unpredictable nature of her job. In fact, she credits much of her own growth, both as an employee and as a person, to her year here at The Newsletter Pro. She says, “Working here has helped me to find my voice and my confidence. My team and I engage in real communication, and through our conversations, I can see the true value of my contributions.” While Maggie praises this job for stimulating her growth as an individual, we hope she knows how much she aids her team members in their own growth as well. All of us here at The Newsletter Pro are so grateful for Maggie’s goodness, her patience, and the fact that she brought her green thumb to work along with her.
