.As a Human Resource Service Partner at NASA Base, Selina Salgado illustrates her job as assisting with "all things people" for the organization. By assisting in technical solutions to personnels (HR) problems as well as requirements, she succeeds at an often-underestimated aspect of Digital Transformation (DT): the interpersonal side. As a champion of community building, expertise sharing, and also digital upskilling, Selina was an effortless collection for this month's Digital Transformer honor..Selina started at NASA in 2019 as a Pathways intern as well as formerly functioned as a mentoring organizer for Marshall Space Tour Facility (MSFC), which is actually where her Digital Improvement adventure began. At MSFC, she developed an all-in-one, automated unit for open task postings, which reduced the organization's time to choose and raised visibility for available roles. She possesses desires for additional leveraging these sorts of bodies to boost comprehensive teaming throughout NASA by making HR resources accessible as well as interoperable across centers. Her current group under the Office of the Principal Person Funds Policeman (OCHCO) functions along with an 80-20 mentality, operating to produce typical devices as well as answers that are 80% interoperable as well as 20% adjustable to the specific institution or even case..Aside from her specialized deal with electronic human resources tools like the automated task board, Selina volunteers to assist folks understand what makeover implies to them and also how to exercise makeover in their daily lives. In partnership along with Jess Deibert, DT Digital Institute Lead, Selina produced the brand-new Transformation Tips (TxTips) series, which includes NASA employees' tech-related suggestions for performing their job. The instant attraction of the community-led collection resulted in speaker requests for TxTip discussions coming from numerous other offices at NASA, featuring the Workplace of STEM Interaction..Very most recently, Selina has come to be a crucial factor and also partner in NASA's Summer season of AI upskilling initiative to aid employees optimize the perks of AI while managing threats. As a self-taught designer, Selina has made many resources as well as apps to improve agency-wide partnership as well as information collection. She leveraged PowerApps, Electrical power Automate, as well as Electrical power BI, incorporated with SharePoint, to feed information to a dash utilized due to the Organization Main AI Policeman to orient the Administrator on impact metrics from the Summer season of AI campaign. Selina likewise established and also carried out many activities to interact as well as thrill the workforce around this initiative, including conceiving the organization's 1st "Struggle of the Bots" event. Her Reddit-style "Inquire Me Anything" celebration helped staff members comprehend the distinctions in huge foreign language styles by countering ChatGPT versus Microsoft CoPilot to respond to participant-submitted motivates and inquiries. The Fight of the Bots found the greatest interaction of any sort of asynchronous Summer of AI celebration.Selina's instructional background lines up with her concentrate on the connective as well as collaborative parts of Digital Transformation. She received her undergraduate's level in business monitoring with an emphasis in human resource monitoring and her master's degree in learning and trainee affairs, which resulted in her passion in NASA's internship and mentorship systems.
