Holistic leadership approach

Embraces clear and candid communication, allowing objectives, not ego, to drive discussions. Willing to engage in discussions when helpful.

Prefers making weighted decisions, aligning interests, and promoting mutual growth anddevelopment—not afraid to act decisively and strive for success.
