Has three to five years of reporting experience
Can go toe-to-toe with high-powered executives
Knows their Adam Grant from their Clay Christensen from their Beth Comstock
Possesses a working knowledge of management and leadership and related fields as both research and practitioner disciplines
Is thrilled to tease apart the operational minutiae involved in making business happen
Regularly gets sources on the phone just to learn what they’re hearing and seeing
