Maybe it’s just because you’re awesome? Regardless, you’re a born leader who is effective at prioritizing and organizing information and people in support of a shared objective. You keep people motivated and focused, and you have respect for timelines and budgets. Oh, did we mention you also have high standards when it comes to quality? Well, you do
