FINANCE AND OPERATIONS MANAGER

You are great with numbers, extremely detail oriented and highly organized. You are a good communicator - on the phone, in person and in group settings. You are clear in how you present information and are open to clarifying questions. You are self-motivated and organized. You are professional and well respected.

People naturally look to your example and trust you. You have a successful track record as the "go-to" person. You are willing to do your research, because you like to know rules and processes. People call you dependable, reliable and consistent. Being able to share what you know and help others learn what you have figured out excites you. You know what quality work looks like and, more importantly, you expect everyone around you to strive to achieve that level. Yet, you know how to encourage and motivate others - guiding them towards your standards.

You are able to see the big picture - understanding how the system works and the reasons why it works the way it does. You enjoy "strategy sessions" as well as workgroup and committee environments. You see problems as challenges - creatively looking at those situations and problem-solving solutions is fun for you.

You understand that each person is born with value and rights. You genuinely care about people and want nothing more than to see those around you not only succeed but thrive in what they do. You know that takes effort and teamwork, and you want to do your part and like knowing what you do positively impacts others.
