Describe the behaviors and traits of a leader in the industry who inspires you to emulate those characteristics everyday?

The behaviours and traits of a leader belongs to man who suddenly passed away 7 years ago – Monty Dortkamp. He was my inspiration and responsible for where I am today.
He was nurturing but challenging in his teaching methods. He was able to see the potential in a person and then guide them on their way. He was approachable and friendly but still professional and inspiring.
