What's a word for someone who always tries to improve things around them?
I'm looking for a word that refers to someone who puts effort into constantly leaving things better than the way he/she found them - an interpretation of 'stewardship'.
Sample sentence: "I've been so busy solving new problems for clients daily, that I haven't had the chance to better our internal processes. This really bothers the ________ in me."
Thanks in advance!
"I've been so busy solving new problems for clients daily, that I haven't had the chance to better our internal processes. This really bothers the perfectionist in me."
or
"I've been so busy solving new problems for clients daily, that I haven't had the chance to better our internal processes. This really bothers the go-getter in me."
This might sound a little narcissistic but if you feel confident about yourself you can call yourself as a go-getter.
I'd suggest, fine-tuner.
fine-tune: to make small changes to (something) in order to improve the way it works or to make it exactly right M-W
