My Leadership Values: CARE
-
Lead with compassion to foster a culture of empathy, focusing on individual growth within diverse teams. Prioritize equitable opportunities and diversity in thought, gender, race, and age. Ensure timely feedback and fair recognition for all team members, driving collective success.
-
Achieve alignment, not consensus, by involving cross-functional partners early and frequently. Align on processes, deliverables, and success metrics, and co-create a shared vision to execute together. This collaborative approach ensures all team members are united in purpose and clear on expectations.
-
Build a culture of respect within the design team and across functions, fostering inclusion by creating opportunities for everyone. Empower team members to voice their opinions and make decisions, developing trust to eliminate fear and enhance collaboration.
-
Embrace a 'We' mindset in designing for all and executing together. Invest in research to align the team on improving lives. Continuously craft and iterate user experiences that delight. Deliver tangible value to users and the business, ensuring solutions address real-world problems.
