Peer Response:

“I chose Victoria Buchton because I can see myself in her. I would definitely like to work for her. I like her characteristics as a manager. She lets her employees have a voice in the company and I think that is great. Just to know that she empowers her employees is great also.

She encourages her employees because she feels they are worth more than they felt they were. She wants them to take a risk and be afraid to fail. That is when she will have to push you harder. She does not care because, in the end, it is good for them.”
