Trotz zeitlich “auf Kante” war Patrick zu unserem PingPong sehr gut vorbereitet. Es ist knifflig für einen Mentee gute Fragen zu stellen zu einem Fachbereich, den man selber noch nicht vollends auf dem Schirm hat. Patrick aber hat mir parallel zu meinen Fragen einige signifikant wichtige Punkte wieder gespiegelt, die ich selber so nicht auf dem Schirm hatte. In die Details kann man immer noch selber gehen wenn man denn dann diese Ansatzpunkte hat. Also - ausgezeichnete Learnings für mich und mein Projekt durch dieses Mentoring mit Patrick. Spannend auch zu sehen, dass trotz der Thematik Vertragswesen darin immer noch eine gewisse Flexibilität liegt. Ich weiß jetzt jedenfalls wie weiter. Meinen herzlichen Dank an Patrick für seine Geduld und das Zuhören! Das ist heutzutage nicht immer selbstverständlich und das schätze ich außerordentlich! Danke dafür…
