You manage junior staff by example and with patience. Your process is collaborative, but you take full responsibility and accountability for the outcome. You’re able to master the tough conversations – with team members and clients alike.

These folks value love, courage and understanding. Their intolerables are dishonesty, lack of curiosity and empathy, or any action that undermines the team.
