"In my current role, I've been asked on many occasions to lead finance projects for my organization, and I always do so with open arms and an open mind. On a recent project, I pulled together a team that included members of sales, production, and upper management to make this project successful. It was up to me to know each team member's area of expertise and delegate tasks based on their knowledge. A great part of the team's success was because of my ability to lead in a manner that promoted communication among individuals who never had the chance to work together, and I accomplished this through fun ice-breaking activities with the team and regular email communications outside of our in-person meetings."

"As you can see from my background, I have extensive experience as a Sales Manager and director, and I know that the skills I honed in these roles will transfer nicely to this position. I have found that leading teams is best accomplished by leading by example. I feel that I've also developed exceptional skills in mentoring and coaching my staff, and I've been commended on these skills by both sales leadership peers and my team. In this role, I would bring this same approach when working with clients."
