Join me for the career reflections of Shannon Saviers, VP Sand Cherry Associates. The daughter of an air force pilot, she travels the world growing up. Requiring her to move every two years, so to make friends as the newbie, she finds joining groups like theater, cheerleading and student council help break the ice.
Her career aspirations are all about getting into business which she excels at in college and her first HR roles. At the encouragement of a mentor early on, she decides to pursue a career in technology and promptly gets her master’s in information technology at a time when very few women are in the field.
Once again, she excels and continues to manifest new opportunities for herself. Ultimately leading her to start her own consulting practice. A next logical step and one she designs, but what she didn’t expect was the identity crisis that came with not being part of a bigger company. It’s a great learning experience causing her to come into her own.
What’s served Shannon best: “feeling comfortable around others, giving others grace and pulling my own experiences into solutions.”
Her words of wisdom: “I’m a big believer in being intentional, once I set my intentions -- I’m all in!”
