Biography

What makes me laugh? What really makes me laugh is my nine-year-old daughter 'cause she's got really great one-liners and a very dry sense of humor and strangely enough, I'm probably one of the only people that can understand her jokes. But we get along really well and she really cracks me up. I am actually a really introverted person. Many people find it quite suprising because as part of my job I am required to interact with a fair amount of individuals and a fair amount of media and although I think I do it well it does take a lot. To me, the three characteristics that make a good leader, firstly, one is empathy. The ability to empathize with your teams and how do you help them through the challenges that you are facing. Secondly, the willingness to serve and I think that's what leadership is really about. And finally, the ability to also make difficult choices and decisions during challenging times. What am I most proud of as a leader? I would say actually, leaving behind strong teams that has a culture of performance, that has a culture of humility and also one that cares not only for the team itself, but also the broader community to which he belongs to.
