Confidential briefing
Confidence: High
Rebecca
Prepared for your Delivery Leadership Discovery
What stands out
Across separate conversations, Rebecca returned to ownership unprompted each time — consistently describes work where the decision sat with them.
That reads directly onto your side, where decision making happens close to delivery teams.
Recommended next step
Meet Rebecca
Suggested first conversation:
- What ownership actually looks like inside your delivery teams.
- Which leadership behaviours bring out their best work.
- How the work here connects to something they'd care about.
You've not met before.
What we've learned
Ownership
When Rebecca describes work they were proud of, it is nearly always this: consistently describes work where the decision sat with them.
Heard across separate conversations months apart, described the same way each time.
Leadership
Described in specifics rather than principles — works best where leadership is close to the work rather than above it.
Raised unprompted more than once, with different examples behind it.
Mission
Repeatedly prioritises meaningful insurance impact — and the examples behind it were about decisions, not responsibilities.
Revisited deliberately, and Rebecca did not soften it.
Why we're confident
Later conversations strengthened rather than altered what we believed about Rebecca and ownership — the examples got more specific, not vaguer.
- Ownership, leadership and mission each read the same way from Rebecca's side and from yours, separately.
Their expectations sit at £95,000. No prior relationship — the reasoning carries this on its own.
Worth discussing first
- What ownership actually looks like inside your delivery teams.
- Which leadership behaviours bring out their best work.
- How the work here connects to something they'd care about.
- How decisions get made, and where they get written down.
- What would make the first year successful here.
