Critiquing a Recruitment ad

The way I focus my brand as a potential employee is built on teamwork, leadership, wide-perspective and empathy. I have a plethora of experience in jobs and volunteer work, where I worked with teams. This leads into leadership, where I have made decisions and learned how to deal with people and get the most and best out of them. My travels spanning a dozen countries and living in Europe and the Middle East has given me a wide-perspective, coupled with empathy in understanding and realizing why other cultures and people act as they do. Combining these traits, makes a unique brand that shows I can be a great fit for a company that is internationally-based, teamwork based and want servant-leadership.

I would focus the ad on several different scenarios in dealing with people of various sorts. This can be driven internationally, presenting myself as a world traveler who has interacted with many cultures and embraces the awkwardness and humility in connecting with people. Another scenario would be dealing with a diverse team, that is disconnected. Presenting myself as an empathetic leader who can relate to the different team members and identify values that all parties accept and drawing upon that as a pillar to creating a cohesive team founded on respect, developing mutual trust. The final scenario would be set on a overseas assignment, incorporating various nationalities working on a project that needs a team leader to guide and direct progress. This would be based on multiple perspectives, teamwork, empathy and leadership. Identifying strengths in the team and and pulling the team toward the project will naturally draw them together and focus the group on a common goal, where they all want to succeed and are willing to work together, settling differences and learning from each other.
