Leading

Do others come to you to seek insights from your experience or subject matter expertise? Are you excited by the challenge of doing something new and working in a start-up atmosphere with a purpose? Do you genuinely enjoy learning, coaching, sharing, and developing people for continuous improvement? Does the thought of having your own team energize you or scare you?

They are always making and changing action plans, constantly communicating with our Customer and Contractors, with continuous follow up on execution to ensure that the most important actions are concluded every day and as soon as possible.
