Communications

Listens well. Is approachable.  Can convey in speech and writing, ideas and information that are easily understood by the recipient.  Does not hold back about expressing ideas, but does so in a constructive and straightforward way.  Constantly asks oneself “who else should know this” and willingly shares information.  Understands that the tone of communication, not just the content, is important. 

Adaptability
