"Success to me is achieving goals that I've set out to achieve. They can be simple and short-term goals like submitting a mid-term project on time and giving it my very best effort or a longer-term goal, like earning a 4.0 GPA at the end of the school year."

"I define success by my ability to achieve my short-term and long-term goals both personally and professionally. I set milestones for myself and break my goals down into manageable pieces. I also measure success by what I've learned and how achieving my goals has helped me grow and set future goals to really stretch myself."

"As a leader, success is a combination of achievements by my team and me as an individual. I set goals that motivate my employees and are attainable and that also achieve the objectives for our branch. I celebrate the wins, big and small because when one person has a win, it benefits the team. I also set personal goals for myself each quarter and those are typically around employee retention and engagement, customer satisfaction, new business prospects, etc. I always feel successful when these types of goals are achieved."
