Bio
Roy Bayot
João was my boss in the Datahub team at BNP Paribas. Aside from being a gregarious person who keeps the mood light in team discussions and always makes a point to involve everyone, he has two notable leadership habits (that I want to adopt for myself). First, he always brings or relates action items to the big picture and prioritizes them accordingly. Second, he always reminds people within his team that we (our team and other departments) are in the same boat together and we just have to row in the same direction. These habits have been especially important in projects with different teams, stakeholders, KPIs, and levels of visibility. It allowed our team to always look at what's important, flourish, and hit our deliverables with minimal friction.
