On a personal level, you possess exceptional leadership and interpersonal skills, with a proven ability to motivate and develop teams. You excel in achieving results, utilising your strong problem-solving and decision-making skills. You thrive in a fast-paced and dynamic environment and never stray from being a role model for collaboration.
