Possessing an inner drive, you are likely committed to achieving certain goals that are of personal importance. Team members will generally perceive you as being motivated and driven to succeed, provided that the goals are clear. Very Independent, Aggressive. You are likely to have a strong individualistic streak and will be comfortable influencing others and advancing your own interests. Individuals with low cooperative scores are often motivated to take the lead on work projects and can be a good fit for independent, competitive, and results-oriented fields such as sales or managerial roles. Temperament, Attitudes & Outlook Very Competitive. Compared to most people, you have a very strong drive to win. You are likely to be highly motivated by competition and will strive to meet and exceed external targets.

You are highly competitive by nature, with an innate desire to win, which will serve you well in roles where performance measurement is valued. You are comfortable taking risks when required. Potential Challenges Your highly competitive nature may, at times, be seen by others as unfriendly. You should find ways to ensure you are competing as a team towards shared goals, as opposed to competing against your team mates. Your independent, aggressive streak might put you in conflict with other members of the team if your interests are not aligned. Neither consistently assertive nor overly deferential, you will be assertive in some situations and not in others. You have a strong commitment to advancing your own interests and will act proactively to do so. This comfort with going against the grain should stand you in good stead if you ever need to make necessary but unpopular decisions. Ambiverts like you tend to be flexible enough to have potential suitability for a variety of roles, including those that emphasize social interactions and those that do not. You are likely to display an effective balance of patience and impatience in pursuing opportunities or navigating frustrations with work-related tasks or projects. Copyright ©-, Criteria Corp. All Rights Reserved •- 3 of 5 Alain Christan 's Workplace Insights Test Date: Sep 14, 2023 Development Suggestions Work Habits Your motivation and drive are best harnessed by prioritizing activities in a way that optimizes your ability to achieve results. You should look for places where you can add the greatest value and use your natural drive to deliver in areas of impact. Interaction Style Some interactions call for a more direct approach, whereas others may require a gentler touch. When engaging with others, you should make sure to consider the situation, the people involved, and the context to help you determine the level of directness that is warranted. Your independence and willingness to advance your own interests will be an asset in many roles. However, sometimes it is necessary to put the needs of the group before individual goals. Doing so may be more effective in the long term. You will be well served to consider the benefits of having a group where everyone is aligned and working towards the same goals together. Effective performance is often a combination of getting things done and interacting well with others. There are times when remaining focused on getting work done is the best approach and times when spending more time engaging with others is beneficial. It may benefit you to take a moment to consider the right balance for a particular job and where you may need to rebalance. Temperament While there is a time and a place for healthy competition, there is also a risk that being highly competitive may have a negative impact on developing good relationships with others. It may be beneficial for you to consider using your energy and enthusiasm for success to help others in their attainment of goals. This may help you foster valuable working relationships. You may also benefit from understanding that it's OK to lose and to fail - doing so can encourage growth, build resilience, and help shape future goals. Persisting is an important characteristic in the accomplishment of tasks and deliverables. However, there may be times when trying a different approach is more beneficial than just trying harder in the same direction. Knowing when to step back and assess the effectiveness of one's approach, and being open to persisting in a new direction, can meaningfully contribute to accomplishing your objectives. Attitudes & Outlook Knowing when to take a creative approach is important to accomplishing goals. However, there are also times when using tried and true methods are best for getting things done. The balance is in understanding the situation at hand, quickly learning the relevant history of what has already been attempted, and capitalizing on the more effective strategy.
