Rachel is a great teacher and mentor. There have been numerous times where I have come to Rachel for help with merchandising and events, and she is always willing to set aside time and energy to help her teammates. She prioritizes others' development, and helps build a collaborative team environment.
Rachel's superpower is understanding what levers matter and will deliver results, and cutting to the chase when resources are limited. Rachel is a master at prioritization and driving results, and can be absolutely relied on to deliver on commitments, even when facing an overwhelming workload.
Rachel is an excellent teacher, both in the pragmatic tactical skills as well as in analytical problem solving. She ensures that everyone involved in a project has the tools necessary to succeed, in addition to constantly encouraging and motivating those around her.
At Amazon, we used to talk in terms of each others' superpowers. Rachel's superpower is ownership. She's accountable, entrepreneurial, results-driven, and isn't the type of person to utter "that's not my job." Most importantly though, her ownership inspires others to raise the bar on their own performance. Having her on your team ensures that the whole is much greater than the sum of the parts.
