  • You're a teacher. You do the right thing and lead by example. You have a passion for coaching and investing in the betterment of your team. You lead through change with candor and optimism.

  • You create energy and an environment that fosters trust, collaboration, and belonging, making it easy to attract, hire, and retain top talent.
