EFFICIENCY: Looking for radical leaps as well as incremental changes in efficiency and injecting fresh thinking to improve how things get done. Leveraging data to confront whatever gets in the way of R&D performing as effectively as possible.

HEALTHY CHALLENGE : Thoughtfully challenge the status quo and being bold about asking difficult questions.
