• I like to have a very basic working version first and iterate on it
• I love to help

• honesty
• direct and straight communication
• people who quickly get to the point
• leading by example

• process for the sake of process
• long meetings where no actions are taken at the end
• indirect feedback (heard from third parties)

• chat (public channel unless it's personal)
• email is ok...ish

1. I need some context first
2. I understand the problem
3. I draft some options and evaluate them
4. I pick the one which is less complicated but at the same time doesn't prevent further improvements
5. I iterate and improve the implemented solution
