"JOHN SMITH"
What kind of team player is John?
The following personal statements are generated
by your answers to The
Birkman® Method questionnaire:
When he is at his best
|
• Is typically direct and
straightforward -- tends to get to the point
|
|
• Structured in his approach to
situations: presents his outline point by point, with at least some focus
on detail issues
|
|
• Tends to exercise authority naturally
-- generally gives direct orders as much as he may seek a consensus from
others
|
|
• Is naturally competitive; likes to
win, and prefers to encourage others using individualized incentives
|
|
• Physically energetic; brings an
emphasis on direct action to most issues, and seeks a similar approach
from others
|
|
• Thinks in terms of demanding goals,
which will stretch his own and others' capabilities. May have a high
level of expectation, both of himself and the people he works with
|
|
• Likes to have plenty of variety in his
routine; likely to expect others to be able to handle more than one issue
at once
|
|
• Open to innovation; may well encourage
others to try unorthodox or untested methods to achieve their goals
|
His less effective approach
|
• Can be brusque and over-direct,
upsetting more sensitive people without realizing it
|
|
• Can withdraw from general interaction
with people; may remain by himself, or depend too much on a few people
who are close to him
|
|
• Can become more domineering than he
realizes; may take others' silence for consent, when in fact they are
intimidated
|
|
• Can become over-competitive, to the
extent that the need to win can be more important than a solution that
benefits all
|
|
• Can have expectations of others and
himself that are unrealistic; inclined to blame himself for problems
which arise, and sometimes too reluctant to abandon projects which
realistically cannot succeed
|
|
• Can sometimes be too inclined to deal
with too many issues at once, or to focus unduly on secondary matters
whose relevance is doubtful
|
|
• Can underestimate the extent to which
his liking for the unconventional or unorthodox can trouble other people;
sometimes inclined to say or do something unusual merely for effect
