A second very important factor of proactivity is being able to bring solutions to the problems when you need to communicate bad news.

You need to assimilate proactivity as a main behavior and way of doing things. A proactive attitude will give you an advantage for getting closer to results and solving problems. A proactive attitude will make you different and valuable.
