Travis Maassen's Linkedin Analytics

I am a distinctly independent and individualistic person sometimes described as strong-minded and determined. I am considered Venturesome, because I will “stick my neck out”; and take responsibility for risks when I believe they are the right thing to do. The challenge of new problems and new ventures is stimulating to me, and they will be responded to with action. I have a lot of confidence in myself, my knowledge, ability, and decisions based on my decades of business experience. I am an ingenious and innovative problem-solver and troubleshooter. I have an actively inquiring mind, a lively interest in the technical aspects of the work, and a need to know and learn more about the systems, techniques, facts, and concepts involved in it. I will drive hard to get things done correctly, and quickly. I am a self-starter that initiates, makes decisions, and assumes responsibility for those decisions. I have a strong competitive drive, I am ambitious, and I will drive hard to achieve goals. My sense of urgency and impatience for results will put pressure on others as well as on myself. When expressing myself, I am direct, factual, outspoken, and frank. My approach to others is sometimes considered authoritative, telling, and, if I encounter resistance or competition, I defend my positions with factual information. I am always concerned with timely results; I deal with ambiguous situations briskly and firmly. Because I have a broad focus on goals and results, I prefer to delegate details to others. I like to be quick and fairly accurate in handling of details, and I can become very impatient and less accurate in doing work which requires routine and repetitive handling of details at a slow or systematic pace.
