About your skills
Consulting: You see beyond the present problem and identify the fundamental ‘why’. You are a strong systems thinker and co-design potential solutions with the leader and people partner.
Influencing: You develop relationships effectively up, down, and across the organization and are able to strategically use these relationships to help move your work forward.

Decision Making: You use critical thinking to follow a defined decision making process and consider multiple perspectives. Upon making a decision, you are clear in your communication and ensure everyone is aligned in execution.
