Who YOU Are

You need and thrive in a work environment that allows for independence, freedom, change, and the ability to collaborate with others . You are happy to make decisions, but only once you’ve reviewed a problem from all angles and have determined that your choice is low risk and likely to work out well. You both a leader and a team player, and genuinely want to participate, especially when you can personally contribute to the overall solution. You prefer not to delegate, as no one can do the job quite as well as you can. You tend to be harder on yourself than anyone. Your communication style is direct while still maintaining the relationships with your overall team.
