We want our employees at Standard Bank to demonstrate strong leadership skills. How would you describe your management style?

"My overall management style centers on building a positive team atmosphere. I believe that each person and role brings a specific skill set to the overall goals and purpose of a team. As such, I promote a team-based atmosphere by clarifying everyone's role on the team, keeping every person's objectives clear, rewarding great performers on the team, and holding people accountable for their actions. If hired for this role at Standard Bank, you can be assured that I would bring this collaborative and team-focused leadership style to the table for each project."

"I think that it is crucial for a leader of others to be flexible in their style rather than relying on just one of the canned management styles. I want to highlight my abilities to lead as a manager who works to grow and develop my staff to help them achieve their career goals and a leader who can provide direction and authority when the time for it arises. By knowing my team well and promoting our goals, I can assign work to the right people and follow through with my team on meeting all objectives necessary."
