    Beyond Experience : About You

    Your love of digital marketing runs deep. You've likely been described as a T-Shaped Marketer, a jack of all trades, or a lifelong learner. You constantly look for new opportunities to connect the dots between marketing tactics and the goals you're working to achieve. And your relentless focus on business performance consistently delivers exceptional results.

    You bias toward enabling team members rather than directing or dictating. You thrive in collaborative situations and may have commandeered a whiteboard or two in your day during brainstorming sessions. You're an active listener and are always looking for ways to help clients succeed, be that integrating new marketing tactics, proposing new work, or simply looking for ways to better collaborate. You have high emotional intelligence and empathy and are skilled at delivering feedback in a kind manner.

    You are helpful, generous, and empathetic. Wheelhouse values resonate with you, and cynicism has no place in your work. You get joy from helping others to succeed.
