Leader

Leaders transform organisations through innovation, drive, persuasive communication and entrepreneurial flair. However, their efforts may be less effective if they overlook transactional aspects associated with effective management.

Contributor

Contributors take pride in focusing on tasks within a defined area and using tried and tested approaches to resolve problems. They are likely to feel comfortable taking direction from others and may feel uneasy at the prospect of managing other people, preferring to focus on their own specific area of responsibility.

Corporate Leader

Corporate Leaders transform organisations by combining innovation, drive, persuasive communication and entrepreneurial flair with the effective execution of analysis, personal resilience, interpersonal sensitivity and structured implementation.

Manager

Individuals who combine technical expertise with a clear transactional management style are likely to be effective in coping with pressure and driving operational success in the here-and-now. However, future success also depends on a steady flow of innovation that leads to new business propositions in response to evolving markets.

Creator

Creators work well in situations requiring openness to new ideas and experiences. They typically handle situations and challenges with innovation and creativity and will often support or drive organisational change. However, their enthusiasm for change may overlook positive aspects of the status quo. Given that their style is also less focussed on quantitative analysis they may also overlook the need to check the feasibility of their ideas.

Conservator

Conservators thrive in environments where they can continue to use well-proven methods and discourage incompatible ideas. They are less inclined towards quantitative analysis, and typically apply established methods and ways of working to resolve practical problems and maintain the status quo.

Visionary

Visionaries excel in developing a vision for the organisation while critically evaluating the facts, and creating the ideas and concepts that move the organisation forward. However, in certain contexts they may be inclined to over analyse a situation and to overlook positive aspects of the status quo.

Analyst

Analysts are naturally suited to critical thinking and quickly get to the heart of complex problems and issues. They work most effectively in situations requiring the application of established methods and may struggle to create new ideas. Analysts will strive to apply tried and tested approaches to the resolution of problems and if left unguided may be inclined to over analyse a situation.

Communicator

Communicators relate to others in a confident manner, presenting a convincing case for the new vision and strategy. They enjoy public speaking, network effectively and are generally successful in persuading and influencing others. However, they can find it difficult to cope effectively with the personal pressures often associated with organisational change.

Stability Seeker

Stability Seekers thrive in stable environments and those where networking is less important. They are likely to be socially reserved and dislike public speaking, choosing other ways of communicating. They may find the personal pressures associated with organisational change challenging, but their focus on more negative aspects of a situation could help highlight potential issues. They tend to behave consistently and not to pressure others, which can provide a counter balance to more forceful approaches.

Change Ambassador

Change Ambassadors inspire others to share the organisation’s new vision and goals. They relate to others in a confident and relaxed manner, enjoy public speaking and network effectively. Change Ambassadors flourish on pressure and change, projecting confidence and providing re-assurance to others. However, they may underestimate the personal challenges experienced by others in adapting to change.

Adjuster

Adjusters focus on the positive aspects of the new vision and strategy, and respond well to the challenges it brings. However, being private and socially reserved, they may not effectively share their positive outlook, and miss opportunities to persuade and influence others. They prefer not to be in the centre of attention and may dislike public speaking.

Decision Maker

Decision Makers naturally seek to take control, initiate action and exercise leadership. They prefer not to engage with the personal concerns of others, which may make it easier for them to make hard choices impacting other people. As they are more strongly focussed on task-related than people-related aspects of the job, they may underestimate others’ concerns about new goals. This may limit the extent to which they gain other people’s support.

Individualist

Individualists are more strongly focussed on task-related than on people-related aspects of the job. They prefer not to engage with the personal concerns of others and tend not to act in a directive manner. They are open in expressing their own opinions and may seek to take an independent advisory role within the group.

People Leader

People leaders listen to other people’s views, and are astute at judging how best to motivate and empower others. They naturally prefer to take control, initiate action and exercise leadership. Their people-focused approach, combined with their natural tendency to take responsibility, helps them to gain other people’s trust. However, they may find it difficult to make tough decisions which may have a negative impact on others.

Team Player

Team Players naturally put people issues first, supporting colleagues and showing respect towards others. They understand how to motivate other people and gain their support. However, they are happy for others to take the lead and this may limit the extent to which they actively direct the efforts of others.

Entrepreneur

Entrepreneurs are most effective in bringing a competitive edge to their work. They prefer to address issues flexibly and may find it uncomfortable and constraining to adopt a procedural or process orientation. Their competitive drive may support a strong interest in business, commerce and finance. They are inclined to focus on the pursuit of personal work goals and objectives, but may not always plan in detail how they will achieve these.

Idealist

Idealists prefer to address issues flexibly. They derive satisfaction by applying steady effort to the task at hand and may find it uncomfortable and constraining to adopt a more structured approach. They are less driven by competition, or by the need for personal recognition. This means that they may fail to recognise or capitalise on potential commercial opportunities. However, their steady pace and flexible style provides a counter balance to more intense approaches.

Business Driver

Business Drivers focus on results, achievement of personal work goals and objectives and career advancement. This may also mean that they show a strong interest in business, commerce and finance. They identify and act upon new opportunities by working energetically in a systematic and organised manner. While they may sometimes become preoccupied with detail, they are generally respected for running the organisation smoothly and efficiently.

Implementer

Implementers specialise in getting things done and derive satisfaction from having many tasks to do. They like to follow processes and procedures, working in a systematic and organised manner. Implementers focus on the delivery of a defined product or service to predetermined standards and can find it challenging to accommodate deviations from the plan. Given that they are less driven by competition and the need for personal achievement, they can fail to recognise or capitalise on potential commercial opportunities.
