Your skills
- Critical & analytical thinking. You can correctly analyse the root causes of a problem, without getting side-tracked by irrelevant, minor details. You can come to the right conclusion and propose a clear, logical plan of action. You don't stay on the surface of things.
- Clear and transparent communication. You are able to express your thoughts clearly, concisely and to the point. You don't use buzzwords or corporate talk, and so allow everyone to understand your message loud and clear
- Being self-driven. You require very little guidance and intervention from your leader to move ahead. You can correctly read what the situation requires, and take the necessary action accordingly. If your leader were to disappear, you can still move ahead and make relevant things happen. You act because you want to, and not because someone else is telling you that you should.
- Emotional Maturity. You can swiflty change the course of action when needed, and don't get easily demotivated. You are highly self-aware and introspective
- Bias for action. You operate with a constant sense of urgency, looking for ways to move ahead and push everything around you to get to the desired outcome in the most efficient and productive way. Instead of spending weeks on contemplating the right course of action, you take calculated risk and make things happen fast.
