I believe my greatest weakness would be my perfectionism when it comes to work. Regarding statistics production, perfecting the end product is not always achievable, since the input or raw data usually includes defects and errors. Endeavoring to serve the best outcome does not guarantee these results. Therefore, perfectionism makes you feel stressed at times. But now I can say through the years I have learned that given the data is not totally error-free or flawless, the optimal solution, not the perfect one is the best solution. I should again say, however, we should always look for continuous improvement in all types of processes including the output whether a set of statistics or a report, and internal processes to handle the input. For example, automation in data handling compared to a manual or a visual one, lowers the processing time, decreases the errors, and saves precious labor time that can be channeled to personal improvement and training. Therefore, it is one among many improvement efforts on the way to a perfect outcome.
