• You actively welcome new ideas and challenge, taking the opposing view to test your assumptions rather than surrounding yourself with people who share your perspective and affirm your thinking
• You take the time to do things right rather than overlooking the details provided the big picture is fine
• You are energised by new challenges and think of new, creative ways to approach problems rather than waiting for clear instructions before starting something new
• You roll your sleeves up and muck in to get things done rather than waiting for someone else to fix it
• You take ownership of your mistakes and see them as an opportunity to learn, rather than playing it safe or pretending mistakes and failures didn’t happen
