Participative leadership style. She provides a team focused and collaborative

every team members input and gives and makes sure that he/she is listened
to. When it comes to setting objectives/goals she is very direct, clear and
transparent in what she expects. She is high on Agreeableness as she is very
flexible and makes sure the team reaches a consensus with importance

is significantly high on emotional intelligence. On the motivation graph, she
provides individuals opportunities to role-play their leadership styles thereby
enhancing an individuals scope of responsibility and grooming them into
effective decision makers. Apart from that, she keeps a record of every team
