Rising HR Star of the Year
People Director Roxana Staneiu won a Gold Stevie Award for Rising HR Star of the Year. This award category recognizes the achievements of human resources professionals under the age of 30.

On winning the award, Staneiu commented:

This recognition holds a special place in my heart. It’s genuine proof that we are on the right path and that our collective dedication, authenticity, and passion for lifelong learning are reshaping and innovating industry practices. 

She explained how they foster a culture of continuous learning and development within the organization:

We support people in embracing a growth mindset, encouraging curiosity, lifelong learning, and trying out new things without the fear of failure “Fail fast. Fail better.” Our approach encompasses multilateral development, bringing together training programs, mentorship opportunities, and a culture of giving feedback on the spot feedback while nurturing psychological safety inside teams.

Learning is a never-ending journey, and we are happy to be next to our people to empower and guide them every step of the way.

She says their focus remains on becoming better every day, innovating, and fostering a place of trust in which they can co-create together with their partners. They are committed to further enhancing their people’s growth initiatives, leveraging cutting-edge technology to drive impactful change and innovation, such as AI-driven learning.

Human Resources Professional of the Year
People & Culture Specialist Estera Fodorean won a Silver Stevie for HR Professional of the Year. When asked what this recognition meant to her and her team, she explained:

For years, navigating the professional landscape, I've encountered societal norms that often dictated a rigid definition of professionalism. These norms implied that real professionals should appear as very serious figures with little to no laughing or jokes, avoid forming deep bonds with colleagues, hide their emotions, and keep personal challenges hidden. It felt completely unnatural, and I was determined to stick to my authentic style of a people-person.

Winning a Stevie award for professionalism signifies the transcendence of these outdated beliefs for me and my team. It's a testament to our commitment to authenticity, fostering genuine connections, and embracing both the challenges and joys of our work environment while maintaining quality in everything that we do.

Looking ahead, Fodorean says that her commitment remains focused on continuous learning and contributing to her team, community, and all those around her.

They will continue to "inspire and encourage each other, provide opportunities for professional development, encourage mentorship and knowledge sharing, and celebrate the achievements and milestones of team members."

mindit.io and team members won a Gold Stevie, two Silver Stevies, and two Bronze Stevie Awards in the 2023 Stevie Awards for Great Employers.
