My Motivation … or, the DiSC test…

I was asked to take a DiSC test by a potential employer a few days ago … This is what it said:

As someone with an Inspirational Pattern, AB, you may often display a dazzling ability to persuade others. The tools you use to achieve this goal can vary. Often, you can be quite charming and convince people to do what you want by strength of pure likability. At other times, however, you may employ obvious intimidation to get your point across. Usually, the most important factor for you is control, which you tend to seek over your environment or your audience.

You are likely to be clear in your own mind about the results you want. However, you might not always articulate these ambitions. You probably prefer to reach your goals thorough cooperation and persuasion, rather than by exercising domination.

As a part of your tendency to persuade people, you may downplay your own need for affection. This method of maintaining some distance may be part of your conscious attempt to modify the thoughts and actions of others.

I’m sure you’re all like, ‘Dude, who cares? Shuddup’ …
