Author’s Values

Emotional intelligence can be best described by integrity, respect, and honesty.

What is Organisational Climate? Leaders do their best to understand how employees feel about working for an organisation. If they could talk amongst their friends, how would they describe the organisation, positively or negatively?

Did you know that the climate of an organisation is primarily set by managers and leaders? How does your direct supervisor turn up to work every day?

Author’s Profile Overview

Let’s understand the difference between climate and culture because they often need clarification, as many people confuse the two. Climate refers to how people feel about an organisation, while culture is around how people behave. Now, clearly, each of these will influence the other to some extent.

Creating inspiring and enriching beginnings with meticulous attention to detail and commitment to excellence. Do the right thing when no one is watching you.

Author Background

The author began her career in 1992. The first four years of training concluded in 1996, receiving my Certificate IV in Hairdressing (SHB40216). Continuing to perfect my craft, I knew if I wanted to become a professional hairstylist.

Ultimately, one must undergo rigorous training and education. In addition, being trend-conscious, I attended comprehensive hairdressing programs, which involved in-depth training.

Author’s Expertise

Furthermore, I was technique-driven and wanted to perfect precision haircutting, colouring, styling, and chemical treatments.

Additionally, I have remained quality-conscious with the latest trends and techniques by attending industry conferences, workshops, and training sessions.
Furthermore, my education and training gave me a deep understanding of the science of hair.

Author Introduction

Moreover, I aspired to do more than just work on the salon floor, cutting and colouring hair. Firstly, I was in search of a new dream role and applied for a sales and education position with REDKEN. Although it was nerve-wracking, I succeeded and became the face of the company.

Undeniably, this career move has provided me with the essential qualifications to provide professional hair advice, along with hands-on experience servicing over 150 active accounts in Canberra, Riverina, and the South Coast.

While, each month, the drive took me far south, and I would stay overnight in the area. Without a doubt, check out Merimbula—the Sapphire Coast holiday resort; this spot is a hidden gem.


Know the Author

  • Learning about Emotional Intelligence was extremely interesting. Before, I wasn’t able to connect my experience inside a hair salon working with clients. After completing the emotional intelligence cluster, I had a better understanding of what I was doing without knowing it! In short, emotional intelligence is crucial for everyone in business.
  • The first branch has to do with self-awareness as well as perceiving our own and other people’s emotions.
  • Lastly, when reading what Mayer and Salovey defined emotional intelligence as “the ability to monitor your feelings, the feelings of other people, identify what those feelings are and use this knowledge to guide thinking and action”. Overall, this definition really summarises emotional intelligence.

Career Snapshot

Specifically, this opportunity with REDKEN marked the beginning of my belief in myself, giving me the business foundation I needed. Every day I spent in that role, I discovered something new and exciting.

Author’s Story

Undoubtedly, it was an incredible opportunity to learn and grow. Above all, I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to have worked with such a fantastic team. Ultimately, this career move enabled me to start my own small business confidently.

Author’s Path

Eventually, dream number three opened Borscz Hair. It wasn’t easy. The initial obstacle I had to overcome was not being a stockist for REDKEN!

Emphatically, NOT being able to use REDKEN products known inside out, upside down, and back to front was disheartening! However, it was not the end of the world. Meanwhile, I needed to work out plan B.

Without reservation, the alternative choice was to be an Aveda stockist, coupled with the Olaplex system. That is to say, the colour and products deliver exceptional results. Without a doubt – did I mention AMAZING RESULTS!

My Journey

Embarking on a Diploma of Business Leadership and Management in 2023 was an incredible experience! The comprehensive training was provided by TAFE Queensland, and it really delivered excellent content that connected my professional career dots. For more details on my journey as a salon owner, read the blog post the author wrote on the personal care guide.
