  • Solution-oriented: Someone who can dig deep into the essence of business challenges and propose effective measures to solve complex problems.

  • Strategic thinking: Someone who looks beyond immediate tasks, thinks backward from the mid- to long-term goals of the business and the client, discerns the priority of actions even in complex situations, and can craft the optimal strategy.

  • Ownership: Someone who takes responsibility for their area and follows through carefully down to the details.

  • Cross-cultural bridge: Someone who understands not only language but also differences in business culture, and can build trust through smooth and effective communication.
