Five Crucial Characteristics Every Employee Must Encompass
  • Kindness - The quality of being warmhearted, considerate, compassionate , and sympathetic. This means being pleasant and tender and having a genuine concern for others.

  • Honesty - A facet of moral character that denotes positive, virtuous attributes such as integrity, truthfulness, and straightforwardness as well as the absence of lying, cheating, or theft.

  • Integrity - When your actions are congruent and consistent with your values, methods, measures, principles, expectations, and outcome.

  • Urgency - Understanding that the task at hand is important and deserves immediate action.

  • Passionate - An intense enthusiasm for or desire to engage in the work at hand.
I can look around at the men and women I am fortunate enough to call my colleagues, team members, and mentors, and 99% of them possess all five of these characteristics. If they don't, I usually don't give them my valuable time.
