Mr. Steven Agbobili has been a friend and brother for more than 20 years.
We attended the same school in Lagos State, Nigeria.
We normally called him Stevoja…
Stevoja is an IT professional who has worked in the field for over 20 years. He was known among his colleagues as one of the best in the industry, …
…with an encyclopedic knowledge of computer systems and a knack for solving even the most complex problems.
Despite his expertise, however, Stevoja remained humble and approachable.
He was always willing to help his coworkers, regardless of their level of experience or knowledge, …
…and he never talked down to anyone or made them feel foolish for asking questions.
Few years ago a new hire joined Stevoja's team. The young man was fresh out of college and eager to prove himself, …
…but he quickly found himself overwhelmed by the complexity of the systems they were working with.
Frustrated and feeling inadequate, he turned to Stevoja for help.
Without hesitation, Stevoja sat down with the new hire and patiently walked him through the problem step by step.
He took the time to explain each concept in plain language, using examples that the young man could relate to.
By the time they were finished, the new hire felt much more confident in his abilities and was grateful for Stevoja's help.
Over the coming weeks and months, Stevoja continued to mentor the new hire and help him develop his skills.
He never once made him feel like a burden or an inconvenience, and he never took credit for the young man's success.
Instead, he quietly celebrated his protégé's accomplishments and took pride in seeing him grow and develop.
In the end, Stevoja's humility and willingness to help others made him not only a respected and admired professional…
…but also a beloved colleague and friend. His legacy lived on long after he left any organization to another.
And as countless others followed in his footsteps and became skilled and humble IT professionals in their own right.
Cheese Bro.
You are good!
