Rachel, it's been a pleasure working with you. The insights and explanations you've provided have been instrumental in setting us on the right path. And I always admired your honesty and transparency, and hope to evoke that same candour. WWRD?Sales Impact Academy won't know what hit them  (in the best way possible). All the best!

Dear Rachel,

I'm very jealous of your new colleagues, they will have gained an amazing manager and a brilliant person. Everything you get involved in, you make better, with level-headedness and an incredible focus. What Would Rachel Do should be a sticker we all have pinned on our screens.

Thank you for being kind, encouraging, positive, genuine and lovely. Keep in touch, friend! :) Have an AMAZING adventure at SIA!

Big hugs,

AnnaO xoxo

Notes - Anders/Rachael - weekly check in - Google Docs - 9 February 2022

# data[].attributes.body
Rachel! It’s been so inspiring to work with you. Your growth mindset, openness and genuine care and appreciation for others have really touched me during the times we worked together. I am wishing you all the very best in your new role and hope that we’ll cross paths in the future

# data[].attributes.body
Rachel! I've loved working with you and getting to know you better over the past month. The first thing that first stood out to me about you was how you bring your whole self to everything you do. And by doing this you make the space feel safe for others to do so too. One of the things that I really admire (and want to be like when I grow up!!!!) is your leadership skills of how to present feedback in a way that is motivating and inspires people to do better. This is a skill that not many people do right and you do it brilliantly. It's always framed as what we've learnt from the past, you take responsibility for your part and you give the reasons why it's important to do even better and you clearly state how that can be done. Another reason why you are so good at this is because you are also great at recognising people's strengths and efforts and giving your appreciation of them in a way that is genuine and never forced. So feedback is always presented in against a background of positive feeling and genuine appreciation. All the best for your new role, they are very lucky to have you and hopefully our paths will cross again in the future.

Hey Rachel,It’s been a real pleasure working with you. I remember the early days of your talking to me about Aula and helping make sense of this new, strange and wonderful place. I remember some of the deep conversations we had, sharing things with you that I’ve never discussed with anyone at work. You held space for me to share, and shared in return. For that, I am forever grateful. But what I remember most, is always looking forward to our coffees and catching up.If you ever need anything, I’m here, just let me know.You will be missed but also celebrated as you go on to do even more amazing work at SIA. Wishing you all the very best on this new journey.Take care of yourself.

- Rachel has a unique ability to see through everyone’s BS, and I absolutely mean that as a compliment. It means that when you work with her, everyone is held to a higher standard and quality of work. She makes everyone around her better. She is also a natural leader, ensuring everyone on her teams is heard and valued, while still leading by example and keeping the ship running.
- Rachel also has a deep and evident commitment to DEI work and equitable working environments. She is incredibly thoughtful and empathetic in her approach and understands that talent is evenly distributed but opportunities are not. She is one of few people who I think really demonstrably lives her values and holds others to account.
- It has been an absolute honour to spend two years working with Rachel. I have learned just an immense amount from her, and have been afforded wonderful opportunities from her influence. She is a fabulous colleague and even better friend, and those who work with her in the future are incredibly lucky!

Rachel,I have absolutely loved working with you! It’s a rare thing to work with someone for such a short period of time, but for them to have such a large impact on you. Thank you While I am gutted to see you go so soon, I’m incredibly excited to see your journey ahead with SIA and beyond. Let’s get some regular coffees/lunches the diary please!

Rachel,
Thank you for being such an incredible colleague and friend.  You embody transformational leadership, and your depth of compassion, humanity and insight is echoed in thought, and action with clarity of communication, courage and strength.  You always lead by example, however stressful the situation, and create an empowering culture with diversity and inclusivity at its heart, something frequently shared and always valued by the SLD community! I loved bouncing creative ideas with you, and valued learning from you in so many ways - I hope our professional paths cross again.  Enjoy the new role - you will be awesome!
With love, Naomi

Rachel, working with you has been a great joy! I'm so grateful for your expertise and all that it enabled. You are so committed to getting it right, not necessarily being the person who is always right, and that's something I will always try to emulate. Beyond our professional relationship, I really value your friendship and support. If ever I needed a sense check on some spicy topic or needed a second set of eyes on some controversial feedback, you were the first person that came to mind and I always appreciated your perspective. Your convictions are unwavering and you know where you stand. You enable people to do the right thing more easily. Your new team is so lucky to have you and I wish you all the success in the world. You deserve it :)

What has always impressed me about Rachel is her ability and courage to speak up when things aren't right. To me, she's the human embodiment of speaking truth to power - while also being a badass operator. Rachel, I hope you'll go on to do great things at SIA. - Jeppe (and Emil says hi!)

Hey Rach! Congrats on your new role. I can’t wait to hear all about it!

I met up with Jess (B) the other day and we were talking about you. I was reflecting on the fact of just how incredibly *for* people you are, without any agenda of your own, and how rare that is. Thank you for extending that vibe to me throughout the entirety of my time at Aula. Your new colleagues are incredibly blessed to have you in their team and on their side. All the best with it.

Rachel Haak is a remarkable human. She lives by values of integrity, compassion and honesty, inspiring those who have the privilege of knowing her to do the same. Her energy and strength are mind-boggling, continuously committed to leaving things in a better state than she found them. As a friend, she always takes the time to listen, offers thoughtful and practical advice and reminds you to find humour in situations and laugh when most needed. I consider myself beyond lucky to have Rachel in my life.

# data[].attributes.body
Rachel, as well as being an all-round excellent human being, I admire you for being literally a one-woman powerhouse of productivity, capable of generating the most formidable output whilst seemingly not breaking a sweat. I literally cannot fathom how you managed, within a matter of months, to take Aula from no learning design, to an operation encompassing the largest network of learning designers in the world, collectively transforming vastly higher volumes of learning material than had ever been achieved anywhere on earth. And that was just the beginning!

Thank you for all your support and friendship over the last couple of years. I think of you every time I glance at my bookcase full of the assessment theory books you recommended. I truly couldn’t have done my job without your expertise and guidance and our bi-weekly coffees made everything better :)

Wishing you the best of luck in your next role - I hope they understand how lucky they are to have you! All my love, Cat x
