MANAGEMENT STYLE
You know how to recruit, hire and grow people who are not only phenomenal technically but also demonstrate success in the highly collaborative, functional environment of innovation at Apple.
Your team is proactive and drives a vision, and works in service of something larger without creating a service org. Your team can deliver what is needed but also redefine what is possible.
As a leader, you give clear feedback to your team that balances opportunities for growth with vision to encourage. You are humble and lead by example, have compassion for your colleagues and the challenges they face but can drive a controversial direction when needed.
