Low ~ I generally prefer to wait for clear instructions or guidance before starting tasks and rarely take the lead in new or uncharted areas.
Medium ~ I sometimes take initiative, particularly in areas where I feel confident or when the need is very clear, but I may hesitate in ambiguous situations or if it requires stepping significantly outside my defined role.
High ~ I consistently demonstrate a proactive approach, readily identifying what needs to be done and taking action to move initiatives forward, often leading by example and energizing others even in uncertain contexts.
