The Seven Habits Profile reveals several areas of success in leading as well as areas of opportunity for me to improve my leadership.

I am a people person and I prefer to work as a team rather than individually. It is important to me that everyone on our team succeeds.

It is my belief that having happy employees leads to having positive customer interactions and more productive workdays. I believe that when employees know you want them to succeed it makes the synergizing process run more smoothly, as all parties know the intentions of the others are good.

I don’t need public credit for a job well done, but I do make a point to say when I have made a mistake. This helps to build trust and transparency. I want my employees to be able to come to me to admit when they have made a mistake as well so that we can work together to fix the error. Without a culture of transparency and trust errors can get hidden and come up later...
