My areas for growth

Maintains effective work life balanceStays composed throughout conflict or difficult situationsWilling to openly have difficult conversations

I become too friendly with peers and subordinates and can either delay difficult discussions because of a fear of upsetting people or the opposite finding myself unable to stay composed and flying off at the hip potentially compromising myself by saying something harsh and unnecessary. Pausing before speaking and delaying responses for a day is often the better course of action.
