"Athina's most pronounced feature is her ability to achieve a sense of harmony between opposing features of her being. She displays a strong outcome orientation and bias for action yet achieves equilibrium with her values and ability to relate to others with genuine empathy. She is a high achiever who builds alliances and credits her colleagues for their effort and contribution."
