“I believe that my most important goal in life is to touch others and to contribute in making this a better world for us all. I am unique and authentic. I value my relationships and reach out to others through my warmth, compassion and caring. I am an idealist and quite intuitive. I look for unity and harmony and love teamwork. I value caring and sharing with others in order to help them realize their dreams and unlimited potential.”
Workplace Environment “I am most comfortable in a work environment that allows for personal interaction, individual creativity and expression. Work sites centered in discussion where supervisors and employees work together and share decision making build my self-confidence, giving me a chance to grow and work alongside other employees with whom I will form long-lasting relationships. I look forward to verbalizing proposals and the opportunity for social recognition. I am effective in getting people to work together and drawing out the best in others.”
