=== Shanu Bhandari ===
[[File:Shanu B..png|left|176x176px]]
|Hi all! My name is Shanu and I am a second generation Indo-Canadian. I completed my undergraduate program in the sciences at the University of Ottawa and am in the last stages of completing my Masters in Environment and Management. I’ve taken advantage of the supplementary courses allowed and did a lot of sociology, economics and statistic courses which broadened my understanding of the EC-stream. Furthermore, I took project management at the Sauder School of Business so I could learn how to best plan out my projects'''.'''
In my substantive role at ECCC, I worked as an Innovation Officer and was responsible for helping with Beyond2020 in our department, a government-wide initiative to make the workplace more agile, inclusive and equipped. Not only did we collect feedback from our colleagues from coast to coast to coast, but we turned them into tangible programs while building in an evaluation component. Our goal was to measure the effectiveness of novel initiatives by setting up our own metrics for success paired with the Public Service Employee Survey.
In my new role as an Analyst on the COVID-19 team, I assist with the COVID-19 committee and help produce daily reports for senior executives, including the Prime Minister. In these daily reports we have an amalgamation of information which include epidemiological updates, and we coordinate with various colleagues to gather information on the impact of COVID-19 across the country, in Indigenous communities, and for Correctional Services Canada.
When it comes to work, I have a philosophy. Instead of chasing the role, I chase the leadership. I do my diligent research into the team dynamics and the executives. I accept roles which are challenging, with leadership there to support it. I’ve been extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to work with and for such incredible, brilliant leaders, and with colleagues who help me grow. I’ve never felt limited by level and have always been given work according to my abilities.
