I value the very strong team of individuals that work beside me to support my many ambitions as Technology Director. I believe diversity makes a strong team and have hired over the years to build diversity among my staff. At one time or another, I have had staff that identify with one or more of these diverse characteristics: age, race, socio-economic status, creed/religion, gender, sexual orientation, and veteran status. I value their unique backgrounds and diverse perspectives to contribute to the effectivness of our team.
Once I make the decision to leave my current employer for a new organization, I will dedicate myself to my next employer just as I have dedicated myself to my current employer for the past 11 years. Therefore, it is extremely important to me that I only pursue an opportunity that I feel is a perfect match for both myself and my future employer. This approach can be a time consuming process and I have been searching and interviewing a variety of prospective opportunities over the last 2 years looking for that perfect opportunity. However, I am confident that once I do identify a future employer and make the decision to resign from my current employer, that my future employer and I will build a strong, mutually beneficial, and fruitful relationship for many years to come. Throughout my job search, I have accumulated very valuable supplemental materials that will offer prospective employers a deeper insight into who I am, how I operate, and what others think of me.
In no particular order, these are what I would consider my strongest core values both professionally and personally.
