2. Customer-centric: I put the employee / manager first. Listening on different levels to what the
employee manager is saying, this allows me to anticipate the needs of the employee manager
and address informational gaps during the conversation.
The Strategist: I am adept at seeing the big picture regardless of how many details people toss
my way. I have the ability to take pieces of a negotiating conversation and connect-the-dots in a
way that helps the customer see future opportunities and possibilities.
An Effective Communicator: I am able to adapt my communication style to build rapport with
others.
Team Builder: I combine my strengths to enable our team to achieve results in the workplace as
well as influence cross-functional teams in order to support our ideas.
Resilient: I am capable of adapting attitude and responses where others might not even
recognise that the situation has changed. This skill has definitely enabled me to focus on
continuing to create value. My approach of drawing from my learning and experiences sets me
apart from most.
