Enjoy your long mornings with coffee, lazy afternoons with a good book, and evenings without a single email notification in sight, and all the things you love are now your "new projects"- and I am sure you'll manage them with the same grace and ease you brought to work. Enjoy your well-deserved retirement, and all the best in life!

It feels so surreal that you’re retiring just as I’m also leaving the CI team. We’ve been on the same organization for 11 years, and I honestly can’t imagine CI without you.

You were already there when I joined, and I’ll never forget how welcoming you were. Your cheerful spirit and your motherly advice… those little check-ins, those words of wisdom meant more to me than you probably know.

I’ll always treasure the memories from our team getaways, the laughs we shared, and just the comfort of having you around. I’m also really grateful I got to work with you one last time on the CI self-help initiative. That is such a nice way to wrap things up together!

And now here you are, retiring. I guess after all these years of Continuous Improvement, it’s time for Continuous Relaxation! You definitely earned it! 🥳

Thank you for everything. I’ll miss you, but I’m so happy for you and this next chapter. You truly deserve all the best.

I will always cherish memories from our encounters and conversations. You have truly been a great boss (the one that never mandates and creates the safest space to grow and make independent decisions) and you truly are a great friend! I wish you all the best and a lot of grandchildren to play with during your retirement :*. Let's stay in touch!

As you embark on this new chapter of your life, I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for all that you have done during your many years at Shell. Your contributions have been invaluable, and your dedication has left a lasting impact on all of us.

When I first joined Finance Operations, you were there to support and guide me through the onboarding process. Your caring nature and willingness to listen made a world of difference, helping me feel welcomed and confident in my new role. You have always been a manager who truly cares about your team, offering a listening ear.

Your leadership and kindness have inspired us all, and your legacy will continue to influence Shell for years to come. We will miss you, but we are excited for you as you step into this well-deserved retirement. Thank you!

Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors. Enjoy every moment of this new journey!

Cheers, Helen😊

Fourteen years have come and gone,
With lessons learned and progress won.
As days turned months, then into years,
We shaped new ways, we faced our fears.

As a guide for change, I found my place,
Chasing better, faster pace.

A Continuous Improvement path I tread,
Where every small step always led.

From streamlining tasks to shifting gears,
Reducing waste, allaying fears.
I saw the power in each small tweak,
In every voice that dared to speak.

Together, we improved the flow,
Found smarter ways to help things grow.
Kaizen talks and Gemba walks,
Whiteboards filled with post-it thoughts.

Now it’s time to step away,
Let others rise and lead the way.

Not goodbye, just a new start—
With warm reflections in my heart.

So thank you for these vibrant years,
For shared success, and even tears.
I leave with pride, with joy so true,
Grateful for the work—and you.
