Owen McDougal: The key to success is the desire to listen, learn, and think critically. A solid work ethic is important. Employees need to not just do what needs to be done, but embrace tasks and activities that provide value during lull times. In many employment operations, there is a need to find constructive activities during slack times, and step up to put in extra effort during busy times. A willingness to do what needs to be done for the organization is notable. Teamwork is critical. Working well with others and covering for colleagues when they need support sets people apart. Skills can be taught, but work ethic and collegiality are often conscious decisions.
