Inspiration: “Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood” is one of my favorite habits that I learned early in my carrier when I took Stephen Covey’s course called “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People”. As such, I’m passionate about helping my clients after gaining an understanding of and learning about business needs and challenges that they face every day before I design and provide constructive recommendations for process improvements in order to mitigate operational and various business risks.
