"I define success by my ability to reach the goals that are set out for me. On a personal level, the things I wish to achieve in my life. On a work level, the targets that are set out for me as well as the professional development that I seek."
"I define success by what we achieve as a team. The project, as a whole, needs to deliver on expectations before I consider the job a success."
