Do you hunt, implement or influence? Your personality type can define your character, what you will achieve and how you perform in the business world. Matthew Baysfield from Tree has defined nine different personality types - can you identify which of these apply to you?
- The High-flyer. You're at your best on the move, juggling several tasks and deftly changing plans when you need to. Freedom and flexibility suit you more than structure.
- The Implementer.There is nothing you can't deliver if you put your mind to it. And what you deliver will be measured, thought through, checked, double checked and on budget.
- The Influencer. You are conscientious, consistent and controlled in all you do, although you can be so busy anticipating problems and finding solutions that you forget to seek out opportunities.
- The Hunter. You are really great at spotting new opportunities.You are not afraid of hard work and you thrive on pressure and uncertainty, unafraid to search out new opportunities.
- The Schmoozer. You are just a born extrovert oozing with charisma, with social skills that others can only dream of! Your optimism and desire to achieve will take you far.
- The Grafter. You are practical, methodical and unflappable in a crisis and always in control.You have great staying power, but you feel very uncomfortable stepping outside your comfort zone.
- The Enthusiast.You work to live rather than live to work.You were born to sell, as your high levels of natural enthusiasm means people will tend to believe everything you tell them.
- The Mad Scientist. How do you sleep with you brain working overtime with ideas? You have a preoccupation with making things work or perform better, to the detriment of actual work.
- The Big Cheese. You are a born leader. Your goals and ambitions are highly defined and nothing will stop you reaching them - but only in a fair and ethical way.
