"Last year, I was offered a management position that would have offered me the leadership experience I was seeking. Unfortunately, I turned down the offer for fear that I was not yet ready for the responsibility of being a leader to so many people. My lack of confidence in myself got in the way. I recognized that lack of confidence in myself and changed turned it around by attending three leadership workshops over the next year. Now I am bursting with confidence and am ready to take on this leadership role with your company."

"I once implemented a rewards program that failed. I had seen it work successfully in another organization with which I worked. It was a learning opportunity for me that not all organizations are alike nor are people all motivated in the same manner. We learned quickly that it was not working and scratched it early, saving some company dollars. In its place, we enlisted the team to create something that would drive them to perform and earn the rewards the team wanted."
