    The good thingsSupportive colleagues
    The challengesIt seems the VP of SDAR might not be the best fit for overseeing DSFA at the moment. It might be beneficial to have an exemplary Head of Department (HoD) for DSFA. Currently, the performance of the HoD has been less than ideal, and there are some concerns about their leadership skills. It appears that their approach might be more emotional and less effective in managing the team. There’s a sense that they might be more focused on appearing busy rather than actually improving the department’s performance, and this has led to a rather toxic work environment. The high turnover rate in the department could be a sign that changes might be needed to improve the situation. Additionally, she tends to be friendly only towards staff who flatter her and often hires people based on personal preference rather than work performance.
