Procrastination and being laid back are two of my biggest weaknesses. The behavior has minimized since assuming the leadership role with Bank of America. I always would take on tasks and do them at months end then I would find myself working 18 hour days to complete what could have been started at the beginning of the month. One of the good things that my leadership has in place is a daily pulse check. This enables us to see where we stand as a leadership team and to ensure that no task goes undone. At the beginning, I continually pushed back on completing my tasks and there was always a rush at months end to complete all assigned tasks.

After several job declines due to not having a degree; I decided to take the step and finish my degree.

I have bought this thought with me into Corporate America and it has come to hurt me as bringing in your personal life into the workplace.

One particular value, individualism, is the main contributor of the exhibition of American greatness and its downfall.
