Someone who is a strong communicator; Someone who can motivate and gain buy-in; Someone who regularly acknowledges and says thank you; Someone who has high expectations, but also trusts his/her employees to perform without micro-managing; Someone who respects his supervisors, his peers, and his employees; Someone who expects and/or can embrace change and/or innovation; Someone who can adjust his/her supervisory style to his employees' personalities

What is your yardstick for success?

I know I am successful when I am, on a day to day basis, happy. I've been happy when I've made a very respectable salary, and I've been happy when my salary has been insufficient. In either case, if I am doing something I enjoy and can be passionate about, I am successful. I realize this may be cheesy, and even a cliche, but it is genuine.

What are your long-term professional goals?

My long-term professional goals are vague, at best. I would like to eventually be in some level of leadership position supervising a group of positive, passionate people that share in a common vision and mission that is beneficial to society. If this is as a CEO of a highly successful company, awesome. If this is as a mid-level manager of an organization, awesome. If this is as the director of a small, non-profit organization that struggles to survive, still awesome.
