something on similar scale. You make things happen instead of wondering
why things happened.

are overkills that should be axed. You continuously fine-tune the
process harness and seek simple, proven and elegant solutions to keep
the focus on delivery capability at all times.

have previous experience how to manage crisis situations, you know how
to put the action plan together as you go, you know how to understand
the scope and impact of the situation, you know how to distinguish what
needs an immediate fix and what can be fixed later.
- The catalyst –
you have achieved impossible tasks that very few thought can be done,
you have managed to overcome sudden obstacles that at first seem
insurmountable, you know how to inspire people to deliver in excellence
under extremely demanding conditions.

are flexible to re-evaluate your goals every once in a while.
- Life-long learning – you realise that there are always better and more efficient ways of doing things.

-
Working with numbers - you can quickly gather, analyse and make right

story without overloading your audience with details unless requested.
-
Payment Integrations - you know inside out how banks operate internally
and how to build integrations with different banking and payment
channels.
