You may choose to use one or more of the examples below or provide your own specific examples that encompass the theme:
- Resilience, adaptiveness: manager/supervisor models resilience in strenuous situations, adaptability to constantly changing circumstances, and builds up team members by being a source of strength and dependability
- Active and intentional engagement around diversity, inclusion, and belonging: manager/supervisor is always mindful of cultural distinctions, welcomes differing viewpoints, looks to strengthen team dynamics, and nurtures an environment of inclusivity
- Compassion, work-life balance, well-being/morale: manager/supervisor encourages work/life balance of team members, supports mental health and well-being, and is sympathetic and understanding of team members
