**Values & Behaviours**
- Ingenious: Manages complexity
Makes sense of complex, high quantity, and sometimes contradictory information to effectively solve problems. For example, looks at complex issues from multiple angles; explores issues to uncover underlying issues and root causes; sees the main consequences and implications of different options.
- Ingenious: Driving continuous improvement Knows the most effective and efficient processes to get things done, with a focus on continuous improvement. For example, pursues, explores, and develops ways to ensure own work is as effective as possible within all relevant processes. Shares an analysis of process problems with stakeholders; discusses how to resolve the issue.
- Ingenious: Effective decision making
Makes good and timely decisions that keep the organization moving forward. For example, consistently demonstrates strong judgment; may be sought out by others for expertise and guidance. Takes smart, independent action in urgent and non-routine situations, knows when to escalate for others' involvement.
- Collaborative: Builds relationships
Builds partnerships and works collaboratively with others to meet shared objectives. For example, readily involves others to accomplish goals; stays in touch and shares information; discourages "us versus them" thinking; shows appreciation for others' ideas and input.
- Collaborative: Navigates organisational dynamics
Maneuvers comfortably through complex policy, process, and people-related organizational dynamics. For example, proactively seeks to understand the organizational culture and adapts fluently to expected behaviors and protocols. Is inquisitive about the workgroup's function and the unwritten rules of the group.
