As a Creative Team Leader, I love to motivate others through encouragement and positive vision. I would like to see the potential in other people, and are good at inspiring others to use their gifts. I am a supportive and creative leader who encourage my teams to think outside the box. I do my best leading cooperative teams of like-minded people who are similarly committed to their vision.

Being as a flexible and innovate thinker, I want to have an authentic understanding of the team’s purpose. I expect my team members who are willing to explore the possibilities for achieving their ideals. Teams which are highly oriented to action, without considering the deeper issues or the alternative options, an environment of mutual support and acceptance. However, I may have trouble on teams where there is much conflict or competition. Judgment and negativity tend to stifle my talent for creative problem-solving.
