My relationship with my manager is very open. There is open dialogue and support. I can ask questions and get feedback quickly. Being supported by my manager is the element of the relationship between us strong. Open communication has helped build us to become a strong and efficient team.My manager is oddly an introvert. She has a democratic decision-making approach. She is an achievement-oriented leader that encourages having goals and meeting them.
