Analytical Thinking Interpreting, linking, and analyzing information in order to understand issues Analyzes and synthesizes information • Breaks down concrete issues into parts and synthesizes succinctly. • Collects and analyses information from a variety of appropriate sources. • Identifies the links between situations and information. Identifies critical relationships • Sees connections, patterns or trends in the information available. • Identifies the implications and possible consequences of trends or events. • Draws logical conclusions, providing options and recommendations. Analyses complex relationships • Analyses complex situations, breaking each into its constituent parts. • Recognizes and assesses several likely causal factors or ways of interpreting the information available. • Identifies connections between situations that are not obviously related. Applies broad analysis • Integrates information from diverse sources, often involving large amounts of information. • Thinks several steps ahead in deciding on best course of action, anticipating likely outcomes. • Develops and recommends policy framework based on analysis of emerging trends. • Gathers information from many sources, including experts, in order to completely understand a problem/situation. Applies a systems perspective to the analysis of enterprise- wide issues • Identifies multiple relationships and disconnects in processes in order to identify options and reach conclusions. • Adopts a systems perspective, assessing and balancing vast amounts of diverse information on the varied systems and sub-systems that comprise and affect the working environment. • Thinks beyond the organization and into the future, balancing multiple perspectives when setting direction or reaching conclusions (e.g., social, economic, partner, stakeholder interests, short- and long-term benefits, national and global implications). Result Orientation Focusing personal efforts on achieving results consistent with the organization’s objectives Strives to meet work expectations • Sets goals and works to meet established expectations; maintains performance levels. • Pursues organizational Consistently meets established expectations • Consistently achieves established expectations through personal commitment. • Makes adjustments to Surpasses established expectations • Exceeds current expectations and pushes for improved results in own performance. • Takes on new roles and Seeks out significant challenges • Seeks significant challenges outside of current job scope. • Works on new projects or assignments that add Pursues excellence on an organizational level • Models excellence and motivates fellow organizational members to follow his/her example. 20
