Management Style

1

My management style can be considered to be a combination of visionary and collaborative with an emphasis on making data-driven decisions. I am skilled at developing and articulating the high-level, strategic direction for my team and mobilizing the team towards this goal.

​

My management style emphasizes more than just the strategic direction, it also requires the provision of a roadmap for the company/department. All members of the team must be aware of both the vision as well as the roadmap as they are the ones who use this map as a guide to pave the path forward.

​

Along with the roadmap, the team must be equipped with the appropriate tools and knowledge to allow for the overcoming of challenges and thereby ensuring success. This management style inspires trust between my team and I and gives then greater autonomy over their day-to-day roles, while being held accountable for pre-approved short, medium- and long-term goals.
