My purpose at work, utilizing my talents, skills, experience, knowledge and wisdom, is to find out specifically, exactly what my clients, colleagues, staff and owners want and need, help get it to them quickly, elegantly and ethically (even if I personally can't deliver it) and have them feel good about it, my company and me. What you think I may lack in job-related technical skills, I more than make up for, with my multidisciplinary task background as well as my communication and interpersonal skills. I bring creativity, innovation, education, and entertainment to the table, as well as community and school involvement.
