Great post jac. 1, 2, 3, and 5 sound perfect answers for the "What is your biggest weakness" interview question. > I was raised in an environment where almost everybody simply spoke the truth. I'm the opposite. I was born and brought up in India and went to a boarding school at age 10. I will give people the benefit of the doubt initially but I will not fully trust them till they've proven themselves, usually by their actions not words. > 3) I either delegate too much or too little Proper delegation is easy when all you have are managerial/people-skills. You delegate to the best coders, artists, and accountants that you can afford. But when you consider yourself as a viable candidate for a task that can be delegated, you end up with the "I should have done it myself" half the times. On the other hand, a manager with no-tech/domain-specific skills would think "I should have picked a better person." Over time, the manager gets better and better at finding the right people to delegate the task to, whereas you don't. Meanwhile, you get more and more prone to either doing it yourself completely or not doing it at all and completely relying on someone to do it all. My advice to anyone who fits this bill (as do I), next time you think "I should have done it myself", stop yourself and instead ask "What could I have done differently to help someone finish this task better?"
