PRIORITIES AS A LEADER Effective, efficient consensus-building with groups of individuals is an essential component of successful leadership. I believe in valuing the experiences and opinions of the people with whom I am collaborating. To facilitate lively discussions and lead groups to action, it is imperative to listen closely to what individuals contribute; then articulate the connections each person’s input is having on the group’s goal. As an effective communicator, I readily access all channels of communication available and model openness and honesty in conversations. I am an organized and enthusiastic leader who passionately pursues endeavors and relishes opportunities to challenge myself, and those near me, professionally. I enjoy thinking “out-of-the-box” and am keenly attuned to the “big picture.” I excel when working across a variety of sectors to build consensus, synthesize information and crystalize actions, paying special attention to inclusion of diverse views and eliminating barriers that could cause alienation. I value identifying talents and strengths in others, coaching them to improve their capabilities and finding roles in which each individual can maximize one’s potential to result in optimal team success.
