A mix of hustle and problem-solving.
-
You make things happen, instead of waiting for them to happen to you.
In short, being a proactive person is a mix of hustle and problem-solving.
-
We trust you. You intend to cause change rather than react to it. We appreciated how motivated you are and how you take charge.
Do
Be ready with a plan of action prior to needing it.
Think beyond the short term.
Find and address failures and risks.
Don’t
Move on to the next thing, before you are finished with the last.
Tackle the "Nice to Haves" before tackling the "Need to Haves".
Invent problems for an artificial win.
