My position required the delicacy to manage a large staff in a multi-cultural environment. My Leadership style includes coaching and support. I was entrusted by the Commerce Club to make real time decisions based upon my knowledge and experience. Daily decisions included: responding to customer complaints versus dealer errors, disagreements between players on the floor, opening or closing games based on customer volumes, staffing to ensure appropriate coverage while remaining fiscally responsible. One of my personal joys I gained from my position was to educate, develop and mentor employees who wised to advance in the company. Show less
