Summary

I believe that my skills and my ability to work in a team have been valuable during this period. I have taken an active role in my team, working with confidence and expressing my ideas and opinions. I have consistently shown commitment and motivation ever on all my jobs and responsibilities. I feel that I lead my team by example. My actions are what defines my work. That's why I spend time thinking about how to solve the problems and challenges that may arise. I meet set deadlines and objectives on time with stretching my work off times and weekends when needed. As I'm a perfectionalist, I think that I sometimes spend too much time on one task. I must learn to use resources more efficiently. When faced with a difficult decision, I make a rational assessment of the positives and negatives, as well as the possible outcomes. I do research and seek expert advice to make an informed decision. I mange my time effectively to meet deadlines. however tight they may be. I have the ability to prioritize the most important tasks, and if I can't do it, I'll delegate to others who have the experience. I value conversation and debate among colleagues. I actively listen to my team and encourage joint decision making. I try to build positive relationships when communicating with clients. I adapt to change and I try to do my bit during transitions. I appreciate feedback when things don't go well. I stay calm and positive.
