Not if you'd rather wait for the answer than decide with seventy percent of it and own the outcome. Not if "that's not my department" is something you've said out loud in the last year. Don't apply if you're comfortable letting a project sit because somebody else hasn't gotten back to you. Don't apply if a weekly meeting is a status recap instead of the place decisions actually get made. Don't apply if leading people means approving time off rather than coaching them, reviewing them honestly every quarter, and telling a consultant or trade partner directly when their work isn't good enough. Don't apply if you like a process that never changes -- we're going to ask you to pull steps out of it. Don't apply if you want a big company's bureaucracy between you and the decision. And don't apply if you'd be uneasy owning the number for how fast a signed contract becomes a house under construction, because that number is going to be yours.<h2 style="margin-bottom: 6pt; margin-top: 18pt;">Still interested?</h2>Then you're the positive, decisive leader we're looking for.
