Understanding Divye

I typically share the contents of this document the first time I meet someone I'm going to be working with for a long time. Style of communication: Direct and clear.

I'm driven by Mission, Vision, Values. What I value in an organization: Transparency, Trust and Integrity. If you have a problem, speak up. Don't ever go behind someone's back. Bring problems up together so that I can see both sides represented fairly. Be direct. What I seek in people I work with: Ability to execute and potential to grow. I will endeavor to make you a better engine
