Interpersonal Skills
My years of experience have aided my development in understanding the relationships between me, the people I work with, and the individuals I support. This required an understanding of how to communicate in a professional and perceptive manner. My patient and cheerful personality have been a boon in this perception. Personally, I follow the idea of treating others as I want to be treated, and constantly strive to solve the ever present conundrum that is the ability to communicate solutions between individuals and groups.
Appreciation for Diversity
My international experience has given me exposure to different peoples and cultures. This has borne in me a belief that a workplace is greatly enhanced through ethnically and culturally diverse staff. These differences bring with them ideas and thought processes that a closed culture could never overcome. That is, when the people with whom one works can think about problems in different manners than one’s self, solutions to any issue come that much easier.
Team Player
Cooperation and teamwork is the key to a great work environment. When all members of a team, move towards the same goal, then the chances of success towards that goal are significantly enhanced. Every team member, including myself, should have the capability and capacity to assist their peers. After all, a business is a team effort.
Self-Reliant
Being a team player is a definite must. However, each member of that team should still be able to carry their own weight. That is, no member should leave their duties for their colleagues to complete, when they themselves have tasks which must be done. Given a task, I am able to follow through until completion. Without a task, I know how to search out and seek those things which must be done.
Communication
Life is a constant test in an individual’s ability to clearly and concisely transfer ideas and thoughts through verbal and non-verbal communications. I know the ability to not only understand what another person is saying, but to empathize with their needs, is a cornerstone of social interaction. Accurate and succinct communication, in any relation, helps alleviate a vast amount of confusion.
