How would you describe people who typically thrive in this industry?
I would describe them as creative. They are seeking to provide people a new perspective on how things should be done.
They don't take things for granted and are always looking for new ways of doing things. It doesn't matter what it takes. If they need to redesign a whole system and demolish the current one, they will do it.
They are brave enough to do what is needed to make sure the industry is committed to its original sense of purpose, rather than just the current situation.
