CAREERTIP : Overcome Intimidation to Build Confidence in the workplace

Posted by on
Feeling intimidated by those who appear confident, successful, or intelligent is a common human experience. However, it's crucial to remember that this feeling often stems from our internal anxieties and comparisons rather than the reality of the situation. Intimidation can hinder personal and professional growth by preventing us from seizing opportunities, expressing ourselves, and reaching our full potential. By implementing strategies to overcome intimidation and cultivate self-assurance you can overcome intimidation, build self-confidence, and navigate social interactions with greater ease and authenticity. Remember, the goal is not to be perfect but to embrace your unique strengths and engage with others in a meaningful and fulfilling way.

PROFILE: My journey to Professional Registration - Sibongiseni Mbadamana

Posted by on
Professional Civil Engineering Technologist, Sibongiseni Mbadamana shares MY JOURNEY TO PROFESSIONAL REGISTRATION

Please give us a brief summary on your career 

I am a Professional Engineering Technologist (Civil) specializing in Project Management, Bulk Water Supply Infrastructure, Rural and Urban Water Supply Operation and Maintenance and have more than 12 years of working experience in the water and other sectors.

What is your current Professional Registration status? 

Professional Engineering Technologist (Civil) and Candidate Construction Project Manager.

What were your views on Professional Registration before your current status? 

I always thought that registration was only for those working in consulting firms. I held that view until I wanted a change in my career and I could not get many job interviews due to my registration status then.

Have your views on Professional Registration changed since you started this journey?

Yes, they have changed as I have noticed that almost everyone within the sector is required by law to be professionally registered especially if you will be performing in a higher decision-making position.

How has your career been impacted by your Professional Registration journey? 

It has been positively impacted because ever since my registration, I had to turn down about three interview call outs and declined one offer of employment. If I was not registered, I doubt I would have been considered. My Professional registration is also playing a huge role even on my current role.

Would you advise Construction/Built Environment Professionals to embark on this journey?

Yes. Everyone should get professionally registered as it is very key and it opens up a lot of opportunities and it also motivates one to always conduct themselves professionally and ethically when doing or performing their work.
