Ownership Flashcards
Leaders are owners. They think long term and don’t sacrifice long-term value for short-term results. They act on behalf of the entire company, beyond just their own team. They never say “that’s not my job."
Give me two examples of when you did more than what was required in any job experience
While working on SOA my responsiblity was to fix Driver only. However I started looking at the other systems that delivery service will impact and cam up with new strategy to solve them.
Server side / client side changes
Tell me about a time when you took on something significant outside your area of responsibility, and why was that important?
Situation
Converting all code in to modularise use composition , modules by using messaging framework
It was huge update in entire code framework, I came to know many business scenarios that Didn’t know
Task
I decided to create some sharable brain maps, sequence diagrams, documents etc.
Actions
In the past I started learning Markdown language simultaneously since I was creating my Jeklyn blog site where heavily marked down is used. My entire blog is in markdown only.
So I also learned mermaid that helped me to create workflow, sequence diagram using markdown only
I created 100s of documents with many diagrams, notes on various complex scenarios (timeout, exam start )
Results
I was able to reveal a few big issues and fixed them. For example, Apple used to have timetracker and updated the state.
Revealing many complex use cases made it visual & simple to explain my entire company including business CTO.
Finally I created a site called aicpa-wiki where now they are all hosted and even my business is also using them to refer to many use cases.
Describe a time you didn’t think you were going to meet a commitment you promised?
