Recommended Posts

On this forum, there is, I'm sure, varying personalities. It's time to find out who YOU are.

My Results:

Your answers suggest you are a Strategist

The four aspects that make up this personality type are:

Spontaneous/Ideas/Head/Introvert

Summary of Strategists

  • Quiet, easy-going and intellectually curious
  • Use logical, objective thinking to find original solutions to problems
  • Think of themselves as bright, logical and individualistic
  • May be impractical, forgetting practical issues, such as paying bills or doing the shopping

More about Strategists

Strategists are quiet people who like to get to the heart of tough problems on their own and come up with innovative solutions. They analyse situations with a sceptical eye and develop ways of measuring everything, including themselves.

Strategists are generally easy-going. They are intellectually curious and enjoy abstract ideas. Sometimes they like thinking of a solution to a problem more than taking practical steps to solve it.

In situations where they can't use their talents, are unappreciated, or not taken seriously, Strategists may become negatively critical or sarcastic. Under extreme stress, Strategists could be prone to inappropriate, tearful or angry outbursts.

Strategists may be insensitive to the emotional needs of others or how their behaviour impacts the people around them.

Strategist Careers

Strategists are often drawn to technical or scientific careers, where specialist knowledge is required. They also seem to enjoy jobs that involve long-term planning, abstract thinking or design.

It's important to remember that no survey can predict personality type with 100 percent accuracy. Experts say that we should use personality type to better understand ourselves and others, but shouldn't feel restricted by our results.

Your answers suggest you are a Big Thinker

The four aspects that make up this personality type are:

Summary of Big-Thinkers

Outspoken, ingenious and bored by routine

Think of themselves as talkative, curious and self-sufficient

May neglect the routine work required to make their plans successful

More about Big-Thinkers

Big Thinkers are always looking for the next big idea or opportunity. They’re adept at spotting trends and thinking on their feet. Big Thinkers like to jump in and find innovative solutions to complex problems and are good at developing strategies for the future.

In the UK, Big Thinkers are most likely to book a holiday at short notice, according to a nationwide survey.

Big Thinkers are usually curious, logical and energetic. This chatty group enjoys a good debate and asserting their opinions. Sometimes others may find the way they express their ideas too abrupt or challenging.

In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Big Thinkers may be rude, critical of others or rebellious. Under extreme stress, Big Thinkers can become preoccupied with unimportant details and lose sight of the 'big picture'.

Big Thinkers may ignore important details in their plans and overlook the impact their ideas have on the people around them.

Big-Thinker Careers

The entrepreneurial spirit of the Big Thinkers often leads them to seek new challenges; this is often more important to them than working in a particular field or a specific career.

Your answers suggest you are a Nurturer

The four aspects that make up this personality type are:

Summary of Nurturers

Care for the important people in their lives

Strive for harmony and avoid confrontation

Think of themselves as gentle, conscientious, and mature

May have trouble making decisions that could hurt others

More about Nurturers

Nurturers are quiet people who believe in order and diligently look after the people they care about. They focus on the needs of others and establish routines to help them meet their commitments.

Nurturers are the most likely group to say they prefer a job where the same thing happens every day, according to a UK survey.

Nurturers remember details that are important to them, such as their friends' birthdays and anniversaries. People with this personality type value others' feelings and may challenge behaviour they think is insensitive.

In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Nurturers may feel bitter and seek support by complaining to their colleagues. Under extreme stress, Nurturers may become preoccupied with the worst possible outcome and believe that they are heading for disaster.

Because they are so caring and loyal, Nurturers run the risk of being taken advantage of.

Nurturer Careers

Nurturers are often drawn to jobs that allow them to help others.

This is maybe half true for me; in reality I'm not as reserved and nowhere near as orderly as this, but I'm also not quite as extroverted as my ENFP Myers-Briggs type either.

At work, I'm at my best with a mixture of routine work (paperwork), a creative outlet (design, event planning, etc.), and being around/helping other people.

Not really a surprise, though I found the options too general. Somebody mentioned the Myers-Briggs test (I'm supposedly off-the-charts INFP), which is much more detailed.

You just never know what you're going to find on this board...how interesting...

First Peacemaker here, eh? :D

Summary of Peacemakers

* Value personal freedom

* Particularly sensitive to the feelings of others

* Think of themselves as steady, gentle and sympathetic

* Others may mistake their quiet nature for weakness

More about Peacemakers

Peacemakers focus on the present and enjoy helping others in practical ways. They are sensitive to the world around them and take quiet joy from people and nature, particularly animals. Peacemakers value close relationships, but it may take time for others to get to know them.

Peacemakers are the most likely group to say they dislike reading history books, according to a UK survey.

Peacemakers live by a set of personal values, which they work hard to reflect in their everyday life. They would rather support an activity than organise it. When they do find themselves in leadership positions, they observe quietly and lead by example.

In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Peacemakers may withdraw and become self-critical. Under extreme stress, Peacemakers may become even more critical of themselves and others and make harsh judgements about minor issues.

Peacemakers tend to show someone how much they care about them by helping them in a practical way rather than putting their feelings into words.

Peacemaker Careers

Peacemakers are often drawn to jobs that allow them to serve others and require close attention to detail.

It's mostly true. Especially the part about disliking history books, spot on there. B)

Resolver:

Good at getting to the heart of the problem and quickly finding a solution.

Make rational decisions using the facts available.

Think of themselves as understanding, stable, and easy going.

May focus on short-term results and lose sight of the big picture.

However resolvers sometimes like to take risks.......................

.....Resolvers are quiet and sometimes it is difficult to get to know them: however they often talk freely about subjects they understand well.

I thought it pretty much fit me.

Decisive 

Determined and Passionate 

Altruistic
