You appear to be quite accepting, agreeable, considerate, mild-mannered and cautious in any less-clearly-defined work or personal situations. Given a requirement or objective and a plan of how to reach the objective, you can be depended upon to work diligently to achieve the stated goals. Your talents can probably be best expressed in the service or support aspects of a company. |
![]() | In Terms of Your Style & Strength of Various MotivationsPeople see you as being an achieving person, one who can be quite hard-driving, eager, active and occasionally impatient. Challenge for you can involve doing some things simply because they are demanding, and many things because they have a concrete financial reward. You occasionally accept a challenge because it has a people-oriented element to it. Financial rewards are important to you, but sometimes you direct your energies toward things that have no payoff for you, but that have this people-oriented focus.
