The Thinking Doer
I am a creator more than a follower. I seek independence from constraints
that might limit my performance. I like to be personally in control and
sometimes of people and procedures. I can never get enough of quality,
discovery and originality. I have a logical, pragmatic view towards tasks and
life in general.
I am not sensitive to conflict and do not like resistance, especially if it can
affect my goals and objectives. I am decisive, determined to complete tasks
that I start. I can be perceived by others as being focused on tasks. I get
motivated by satisfying work assignments, interesting tasks and challenges. It
is important to me to have measurable actions in place, and tangible results
keep me going. I like to make an impact.
My Tendencies include:
• I take some calculated risks when making decisions.
• I prefer to work alone or at least with people of my choosing.
• I am focused on the future, especially new ideas and opportunities.
• I tend to think of people as ‘tools in the toolbox’.
• I enjoy planning, monitoring and measuring.
• I tend to become over-analytical and can micro-manage if I am not
careful.
• I like things to be done by the book.
My Potential Limiters:
With Tasks: Because I am prone to over-analyze, I can sometimes limit my
own effectiveness. It would help me and others if I did not procrastinate
and could make quicker decisions. I tend to take on many tasks and could
improve my time management skills.
With People: I am quite self-critical and tend to be judgmental of others. I
need to be more aware of people‘s feelings, their points of view and what
motivates them.
• I need to learn to feel more at ease and less guarded with people.
• I need to remember that others may not seek my high standards and I
should be more forgiving.
• I should be more communicative and work on my listening skills.
