"I would say that I thoroughly identify and relate to all eight leadership principles. I am also customer-obsessed and go above and beyond, always competing with my previous best. I believe in backing up and supporting the efforts and success of every member of my team, and any individual success I experience is toward that effort. I am courageous, analytical, and a team builder who is always learning and asking questions. Whenever I have an idea, I begin by asking questions, determining whether something has been tried or done before, and learning from that before I launch. I trust those on my team to do what they do best, but I always make myself available to help and offer my insights and guidance."

Examine their leadership principles, how their self-managed Klarnauts work, and how autonomy is carefully balanced with their philosophy of placing you where your strengths lie. "If you love what you do, love where you do it. The competence structure equips the organization with the right capabilities and ensures high quality of work. It enables us to allocate resources to different teams with different problem spaces based on business needs. Teams usually consist of people from different competencies, so-called cross-functional teams. The teams leverage competence to create customer-obsessed solutions."
