In manageable chunks - sometimes I need to step away from something then come back to it (I can be a bit impatient (I'm working on it)). I tend to perform best when under a healthy amount of pressure.
The role I usually take in a team:
Can lead if required, reasonably good at mediating, I will share/contribute opinions & ideas when I have them but prefer not to speak for the sake of it.
My communication style:
Direct, honest but sensitive.
What I value:
Direct communication, humour, the ability to not take things too seriously.
What people misunderstand about me:
I don't outwardly display enthusiasm but it doesn't mean I'm not enthusiastic inside. Sometimes my humour can be taken the wrong way.
How I like to get my feedback:
Honest but tactful.
Technical strengths & weaknesses:
Strengths -->
Conceptualising how things link together
Weaknesses -->
I feel like I still have holes in my basic Javascript knowledge
