- 2. Brent Downey Page 2 SUMMARY Brent is a helpful, patient, stable person who works steadily and consistently. Respectful of established processes, standards, and policies, he will work within those standards to ensure repeated successes and high-quality results. He has the patience and tolerance required for routine work and can be relied on to do such work consistently and in a relaxed manner. He prefers having, and following, a well thought-out process to ensure success. If Brent is responsible for establishing the process, he will do so in a thoughtful, methodical manner, paying close attention to details and time-honored successes. Once established, he will expect that the process be followed consistently, as he will do himself. He will focus on the details of his work and will handle them with somewhat better than average accuracy. In work involving repeated contact with people, Brent will be pleasant, agreeable, and supportive. He derives satisfaction from helping others and likes to feel part of a secure team. Fairly easygoing, Brent works at a steady, relatively unhurried pace and is most comfortable working within stable organizations with established processes. In the event of change in his work and responsibility, he will take time to learn the new work and responsibilities thoroughly, getting the 'lay of the land' before taking action. This is true whether he is initiating changes to his work process (which he will do only after very careful thought and research), or is being asked to make changes. In social terms, Brent is unassuming, friendly and pleasant in general contact. He is a patient, focused, and willing listener, particularly with people he knows well and with whom he feels at ease. He is sympathetic, supportive, and wants to help whenever possible. Even-tempered, he communicates, coaches, and teaches in a patient, detailed, non-threatening way. In making decisions, Brent is careful, and will take the time required to follow the established process, examine different angles, and explore enough to ensure few, if any, surprises afterward. MANAGEMENT STYLE As a manager of people or projects, Brent will be: Patient and methodical - emphasizing the development of repeatable, carefully researched, and well thought-out systems on which to base future work Focused on helping others accomplish their goals; loyal to the company, mentoring and teaching to his team, agreeable and unassuming with his peers Concerned about doing work consistently and within establish company policy; as such he will delegate with caution and provide detailed guidelines and direction for his team to follow precisely Courteous and careful in following-up on delegated tasks, takes the time to guide and teach along the way Approachable; a focused, supportive, non-judgmental listener Diligent in providing a consistent, stable working environment for his team; assuring that they understand their goals and responsibilities and have ample time to adjust to any changes Accurate and patient in handling day-to-day operations; focusing his team on repeatable successes and high quality results.
