Leadership style: “I believe a great leader must have a clear vision and communicate it continually. They must also create a well-rounded culture that is able to both retain and attract the best people and talent to help their company thrive. For an organization to move forward and to buy into the vision, the leader must also trust their people and empower them to make creative and bold decisions.. I try to recognize each person’s unique ability and encourage them to grow and meet their professional goals while staying aligned with the company’s mission.”
