I have the highest regard for Liz's professionalism and contributions. The professional qualities that stand out in my mind about Liz are these: • Exemplary communications skills: Liz assumes little in her communications. She invites input from participants before and after meetings. • Ability to work with others: She lives a consistently upbeat disposition. While she is discerning and insightful about others, she looks for ways to work with others productively rather than look for ways to exclude others. • Great organization abilities: Liz is especially strong in preparing and implementing plans. She invites input from others in the planning process, and she is a woman of her word in following through on the implementation steps. She is effective and professional in reminding people to complete their responsibilities. • Initiative: Liz discerns emerging needs well and brings together key people to form strategies to address those needs. She is innately eager to work hard on matters of social significance. • Ability to deal with ambiguity: Liz understands ambiguity as a natural condition of life. She attempts to accommodate ambiguity by doing all she can to plan, implement and reflect on lessons learned. • Flexibility: When we have collaborated I have seen Liz grow into responding to surprises, changes, and conflicts especially well. • Genuine liking of and respect for young people: Liz sees youth as gifts, not as burdens. She delights in opportunities to laugh, discuss, set goals and be fully present with youth. • High personal standards: From the first time that Liz and I met and consistently since then, I have observed Liz to have high personal standards for herself and others. Of special significance is my observation that she has grown into high standards for
