- You love planning and making sure that everyone is aware of the plan as well as the valuable part they play & fearless follow-up is in your DNA.

- Others also would say that you exercise sound judgment, discretion and confidentiality.

- While you you’re a wiz in all things operations & admin, you aren’t afraid to cross train so that you can step in when needed to lead Bible studies, present to groups, or serve in a capacity outside of your core competencies to keep things moving forward when another team member needs help.
