Job Description

An extroverted style that can enliven, engage and positively improve individuals and groups is important. The job has variety of tasks and is dynamic and changing. Because goals can quickly change, the job requires meeting and establishing relationships with new groups. The ability to understand, quickly react and motivate others to adapt to the changing organization environment is a critical factor.
