【Hi Cloud!嗨雲誌】Executive secretary - Wade Wu

From Uncertainty to Exploration: Wade's Journey of Growth

Wu Fu-Yu (Wade) graduated from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at National Changhua University of Education. His coursework covered both mechatronics and networking, broadening his perspective and sparking a strong interest in technology and information systems. As a passionate gamer, he was always curious about networking technologies. However, upon completing his studies, he found himself uncertain about his career path. It was a period filled with both challenges and opportunities—he continuously explored himself, trying to understand the road that truly suited him.

During this phase of uncertainty, Wade worked part-time at an escape room studio, dreaming of one day opening his own escape room business. However, the pressures of real life made him realize the need for a stable job to support his daily expenses. Following his family's advice, he decided to join HigherCloud to gain experience in technology and networking. He moved from Taichung to Taipei, a city full of opportunities, embarking on his professional journey at HigherCloud with confidence.

From Technology to Secretary: Wade's Career Transformation

At first, Wade joined HigherCloud's technical department as an MIS specialist. During his interview, he was deeply impressed by the professionalism of department heads Levi and Tom. Their in-depth discussions on cloud technology made him aware of both his knowledge gaps and the potential for growth in this field. Despite the ongoing pandemic at the time, the cloud industry remained stable, reinforcing his confidence in his new role. HigherCloud's management style and work environment suited him well—unlike traditional industries, the company's culture was open and dynamic. With colleagues of similar age, the workplace fostered camaraderie and an approachable atmosphere that made him feel at ease.

When he first started, Wade' s goal was to quickly catch up with his colleagues. Due to his lack of experience, he had to put in extra effort to adapt and continuously refine his problem-solving skills. Over time, he became more focused on improving his professional abilities. Eventually, the general manager recognized another side of his potential and invited him to transition into the role of executive secretary. After careful consideration, Wu Fu-Yu believed this change would provide him with a broader perspective and the opportunity to travel with the general manager, expanding his horizons. The secretary role allowed him to better understand himself, develop independence in handling challenges, and strengthen his adaptability.

When facing pressure, Wade turns to music to relieve stress. His family is also a crucial source of support, always encouraging him during difficult times. The general manager's office has a unique work atmosphere—since each team member focuses on their own tasks without much overlap, everyone operates independently while maintaining mutual trust. It's like a pentagon, where each person stands at a different point, working confidently without needing to worry about others, embodying a distinct sense of teamwork.

Building the Future Together: Creating the Ideal Cloud Workplace

Looking ahead, Wade still dreams of opening his own escape room studio. His experience as a secretary has reinforced his belief that this journey will contribute to achieving his aspirations. The professional experience he has gained allows him to view challenges from a managerial perspective and embrace diverse opportunities. He is grateful for HigherCloud's support, which has made him more determined, willing to take on challenges, and able to unlock his full potential.

For Wade, HigherCloud is not just a workplace—it is a place of growth and transformation. He sincerely appreciates every colleague who has been part of his journey and hopes that, regardless of where their paths lead in the future, they will continue to support one another. He also envisions HigherCloud becoming the most ideal cloud workplace in the eyes of its employees, where everyone can find fulfillment, experience a sense of achievement, and feel as if they are in a professional paradise.
