Can I ask to shadow a different department to learn new skills?
Yes, many companies encourage cross-training and allow employees to shadow other departments.
If you’re interested in learning new skills or gaining insight into another department, asking to shadow can be a great opportunity. Many companies support cross-training or shadowing as it helps employees gain a broader understanding of the business and can open doors to new roles. Approach your manager with a specific plan on which department you’d like to shadow and how it aligns with your career goals.
