- Communication and Collaboration: Can you communicate and collaborate with fairness, integrity, and authenticity in a team environment, including the willingness to speak up and challenge the status quo?
- Leadership and Inclusivity: Are you able to lead by example, demonstrating respect for yourself and others, while actively fostering a culture of inclusion?
- Problem Solving and Innovation: Do you enjoy problem-solving and identifying opportunities, while excelling at analysing situations and making informed decisions?
- Safety and Quality Focus: Is safety and quality at the forefront of your mind? Do you have a drive for excellence?
- Learning and Adaptability: Can you learn quickly from successes and failures and apply learnings to new situations?
