You must be an adventurer with a passion to grow and multiply themselves. You must be a competitor, possessing grit, a scrappy demeanor, and a determined drive to hit audacious goals. This person has the ability to harmoniously integrate the major functions of the business, run the organization, and manage the day-to-day issues that arise. You are the glue that holds the people, processes, systems, priorities, and strategy of the company together.
