不捨愛與自由,資深貸款顧問陳曉章專訪

Vanessa是一名經驗豐富的貸款顧問,曾在中國銀行、證券外匯公司積累了豐富的金融和財務工作經驗,現就職於歐盛泰德。 “愛與自由是我一生的修行”,Vanessa說,“留在英國生活工作於我而言是一件自然而又秩序的事情,也是能讓我更加無畏地,自由地,踐行人生的修行-心中的愛與自由;而愛不僅僅是指另一半的愛,它是人與人之間的愛,更是對生活的熱愛、對生命的敬忱。當然,我也深愛著倫敦這座城市,那裡不僅僅有我曾經留學生活的記憶,她/他也是我成長修煉中起著非常重要的角色。 同時, 我也參與並且見證了倫敦的發展。

Vanessa在高中畢業後獨自一人赴英國留學,在異國他鄉擁有了很多獨特的回憶:苦讀英國法規以考取駕照、學習照顧自己、感受到自主性學習的重要性……“知識不僅僅是從課堂和書本中學到的,更多的是生活中積累的,”Vanessa回憶,“我在學習英國case law時對真實的案例的探討,和商業市場的宏觀認知,大學期間,也機緣巧合地進入了一所律師實習。提前感受到了專業的可貴和責任。 也是這段學習經歷幫助我實現了從學生到‘社會人’的心態轉變”。在英國, 無論是學習還是工作生活, 對於周遭的法規法律的熟悉是這個生存的基礎。

畢業後,Vanessa曾在倫敦的中國銀行擔任過貸款顧問。當被問及為何從體制內轉行到企業時,她表示自己喜歡具有靈活性的公司和工作性質、希望在職場中改變、拓寬自己,“像海綿一樣吸收水分,像彈簧一樣張開自己”。 Vanessa表示不後悔自己的選擇,在歐盛泰德這家有朝氣和自我文化價值的公司工作給了她更多機會去探索和提升自我,“我在這裡認識了一群志同道合又優秀的同事,每個人身上都有我很欣賞的特質、很強的溝通協作能力和性格魅力”。 Vanessa十分享受與人打交道並取長補短的過程。談及公司同事對自己的印像是“美妝達人”時,Vanessa笑著解釋說美妝只是能給自己帶來快樂的一個小點、自己也並非很專業,“大概是因為我跟同事們親近,喜歡與大家分享愛用物好用物才會留下這樣的‘錯覺’。”


現階段,Vanessa除了“貸款顧問”外還多了一項新標籤—“新手寶媽”。剛剛畢業時的Vanessa同大部分年輕女生一樣害怕生育、把“當媽媽”看作是一項責任和負擔,而現在,她很享受與寶寶相處的點點滴滴,甜蜜、自豪與滿足感早已取代了先前的焦慮與恐懼。 “我現在不僅僅是Vanessa,還成為了一個小生命的媽媽,每次懷抱著我的寶寶我都會想起小時候我媽媽抱著我的情景,這就是生命的奇妙之處。 也忽然理解了,自己的父母曾經為自己做的一些事情。 在提及成為媽媽的感受,Vanessa除了滿滿的幸福感之外,自己的同理心的感受就更加真實,在與人溝通和解決問題的時候, 似乎更容易解決矛盾。

Vanessa的性格里同時具有活潑與沈穩兩種截然不同的特質。生活上,她努力經營、用力享受;工作上,她以成熟穩重的態度面對客戶。 “我每次給到客戶的方案都會最大化滿足他們的需求,並站在他們的角度思考問題”,Vanessa表示自己對待客戶永遠是有耐心和同理心的,“我很少直接否定客戶的提議和想法,即使根據我的經驗很難行得通,我也會與他們一同嘗試,因為工作上我並不怕困難,相反的是我特別喜歡迎難而上、攻克難關。”

“同理心”、“責任心”、“不懼困難”這些特質塑造瞭如今的Vanessa,追尋與不捨“愛與自由”的人生觀也幫助她盡情享受生活和工作,一路修行。

After graduation, Vanessa worked as a loan consultant at the Bank of China London Branch. When she was asked the reasons why joining Ocean Tide Ltd, she explained that she preferred Ocean Tide’s culture and value she wanted to enhance herself in the workplace, “absorbing water like a sponge and opening myself up like a spring, I have met a group of like-minded and excellent colleagues here, each of whom has qualities I appreciate, strong communication and collaboration skills and charisma.” Vanessa enjoys interacting with people as it is the most efficient way for people to advance knowledge.

In life, Vanessa lives hard and enjoys herself; in work, she becomes serious and mature. “Vanessa is always patient and empathetic with her clients, “I rarely reject their proposals and ideas, even if they are difficult to achieve according to my experience. I will try my best to help them, as I am not afraid of difficulties in my work, in a contrary, I enjoy overcoming difficulties.”

“Empathy”, “responsibility” and “no fear of difficulties” are the qualities that have shaped today’s Vanessa and the pursuit of “love and freedom” has helped her enjoy life and work to the fullest.
